when my aftermarket alarm is triggered, so is my stock alarm. so i have to disarm my aftermarket and factory alarm.
i don't want to carry two remote. so if anyone have a quick fix to this pls let me know. or i can always go to the dealer and ask them. but if its really simple i dont want to go to the trouble.

now that's a ****ty installer. just undo your center console and remove the oem alarm "brain". the brain is located next to the hand brake under the center console.

 

thats what i'm planning to do, but isn't the 'brain' is behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. i called a couple of dealer they said that they goin to charge me about $120 for removing the alarm.

funny thing is i set my alarm on vallet mode. but it still goes off when my aftermarket alarm goes off. i thought that it should disable the alarm, but i guess not in this case.

i'm going to unplug the brain of the alarm and see what happens, any suggestions or better idea?

 

Actually the 03's should have them in the center console..

 

thanks gotta check that out. at least i'll look in the right place in the first time

 

i kind of have the same problem too, but mine is an 05, they said they by pass the factory alarm but it still triggers the oem alarm sometimes.. how can i turn it off for the 05 wrx.

 

after i disconnected the oem alarm near the hand break. . .my alarm goes off still. . .what to do next?? Any help is appreciated!

 

i got an aftermarket alarm and ocasionally i got problems with the stock one

hope u find the solution

 

bump for this, I'm thinking of getting a factory alarm soon

 

man I installed my own alarm remote start 2-way. All I did is disconnect the factory alarm unit that is near the E-brake and that was that. A good way to test it is the disconnect the factory unit, Open the driver door hold the door nipple and press lock the doors should lock and you will see no "security" light. if you don't see it then your factory unit has been by-passed. Good luck I have a 04' Rex.......
