LOL...I sometimes lock my kids in the car while I will run into a convenience store (like after filling up) and I will remind them that if they move they will set off the alarm.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I knew the car had an alarm, but I had no idea how sophisticated it was. I had left the car with the windows cracked and the top partially open to let out the heat while I went in to buy some small batteries. As I came out, a friend called on the cellphone, so as I walked up to the car, I threw the plastic bag with the batteries into the passenger's seat thru the open sunroof. I heard a car alarm go off and I started looking around to see whose car it was....and discovered it was MINE!! I didn't know that there's a motion detection alarm in the car that is sensitive enough to pick up a small plastic bag being thrown in.

POST 2Original post

Yup, I too was surprised. Car was locked in the driveway, wife and I standing there and actually saw the center console lid flip up by itself - - wasn't closed tight enough. Alarm immediately went off.

POST 3Original post

I have the leather dash, so I use one of the folding mylar sunshades. One sunny afternoon the alarm went off for no apparent reason. When I went to find out why, I discovered the sunshade had wilted and untucked itself from the visor. When it fell, it set off the alarm. --Woody

POST 4Original post

LOL...I sometimes lock my kids in the car while I will run into a convenience store (like after filling up) and I will remind them that if they move they will set off the alarm. This is the only way I can keep them from fighting in my absence.

POST 5Original post

It is those two bug eyes left and right of the sunroof switch.

POST 6Original post

Hit your lock button 2X and you hear a beep from the car. This tells you that you have disabled the internal motion sensor and can leave the sunroof/windows open with the alarm set.

POST 7Original post

We call them "alien eyes" - yes, those are the interior motion sensors.

POST 8Original post

Hey Chuck, ====> Just as Paul 996 stated. Hit the "lock" button on your key fob once and the car locks and the internal motion sensors are activated. Hit the "lock" button on your key fob a second time and the car remains locked but the motion sensors are deactivated.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey GOTA: I can't read....I just look at the pictures.
