Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Just as another data point, I installed the "soft chirp" on the weekend and am happy with the sound and volume.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Have done several searches of this and other boards and now know far more than I ever wanted to about *why* my alarm beeps, and *why* it goes off frequently (always at the wrong times, of course). Does anyone know how to safely and *permanently* disable the alarm? I just want to be able to lock my car... PS. I know that you can lock/unlock the car with the key fob to disable the motion alarms... which might help if my key fob worked. Thanks!

POST 2Original post

Maybe you just need a new alarm module. Even if you could disable the alarm you'd need a PST2 or a PIWIS

POST 3Original post

It would probably be a good idea to identify why the alarm is being activated. It could just be one of more sensors that need to be replaced. Disabling the alarm is sort of like putting a piece of tape over a warning light...

POST 4Original post

Semi-permanently - locate the alarm horn in the trunk and disconnect the wiring harness that goes to it. No more beeps. See alarm horn #7 here http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p...section=903-00

Agree - I believe the alarm horn is near the brake fluid reservoir.

POST 6Original post

I had the same issue recently, alarm going off at odd times. Turns out my battery needed replacing.

POST 7Original post

Just as another data point, I installed the "soft chirp" on the weekend and am happy with the sound and volume. Super quick and easy. All I needed was a pack of blade connectors from the local auto parts store

My 2006 Elantra sounded better than my 981 when locking! So I wound up purchasing the one linked here and it works really well. Thanks to you and the others on here for the tip. Easy mod and makes the car far less embarrassing.
