These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So what exactly has to happen when you set your alarm on a 996. I have a 99' and when I set the alarm the lights blink twice and the light inside for the lock button blicks 21 times, and that's it. It does lock and arm itself. It used to sound the horn once too doesn't anymore. I read where the center console should be locked so I did that and I opened and shut the trunk and hood. When I disarm the alarm the lights blink once and there's no problem. Is this all normal?

POST 2Original post

Mostly correct. The horn beep meant that a zone was not protected (i.e. sun roof open, engine cover not latched, etc.). The light on the (top of) dash should continue to flash about every 3-6 secs when armed.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Great board, thanks a lot!!!!!

POST 4Original post

bring it to your dealer - sounds like a malfunction. Lights should blink on and off (no horn).

POST 5Original post

I believe Loren is correct. My horn sounded when one zone was unprotected. Front hood was not latched.
