Re: Re: 2000 Elantra Alarm Light and a Draining Battery

Considering I never put it in valet mode nor did I take it out of valet
mode
that would have been impossible, the alarm was doing whatever it wanted to
with no help from me.  Every time I went out to it something different was
happening.  And as stated in the originasl post I don't have the button
unfortunatly, I wish I did, and God did I look for it.  The alarm hasn't
been used in over 5 years so it's long gone.

And amazingly enough it let me drive it.  This morning when I went out to
it
the alarm would only go off when a door was opened.  And since I drive
with
the door closed I got it to the dealer :)  They just cut it out, took 10
minutes.  Long story short, they said the alarm went bad and started
screwing with the rest of the car and now that it's out all is well.  Yay
alarm failure!
