The alarm never went off either. It still works, but it didn't go off then. I have no idea why. I KNOW it was on.


Looks like it is time for a better alarm, an ignition bypass switch and some door lock rod shields.
Steve,
What alarm do you have? I have the Clifford G5 in my Mustang and I have 0 complaints on it. I have it programmed to auto arm when I close the door. It also will disarm a specific sensor when it keeps going off (vibrations from being parked at the airport) while keeping everything else armed. It will try to re-arm that sensor after 1 hour, but if it still goes off, it will disarm again. Prevents draining of the battery. with everything it cost 2 times the amount as the previous alarm that did not go off when someone broke in, but it was worth the money. I got a good deal from Bedford Autosound. They are located in Bedford next to the Albertsons on 183. The manager is part of the Mustang club I belong to and they take care of a lot of the club members.
