The reason your alarm system is going off is because you used a coat hanger to open the door. This only proves that the system WORKS! It simply thinks that you are trying to steal the car - so it is screaming about it to tell on you!
To get the alarm to turn off, close and lock all of the doors (don't forget the keys :) ) Then use the KEY to open the driver's door. This should disarm the system and the security light will stop flashing and the horn and headlams should turn off and everything should be back to normal.
Well before receiving your response I had read to remove the fuses for the horn which stopped horn honking but lights still flash. After your response replaced the fuses, NO Horn honking and lights still flashing. Tried your suggestion but the lights are still flashing. Any other suggestions?
The only thing I can think of is : Did you stick the coat hanger down inside the door panel trying to get the doors open? If so, you may have broken the wires to the door switch. You might try locking the doors again and trying it from the other side. Also, sometimes it works to LOCK the doors with the remote FOB and then UNLOCK them with the key....or vise-versa.
I wondered that myself about damaging the sensor or what ever but I am not sure about the coat hanger, this is my daughters car and was guy that she was babysitting for that did it. It does appear that the horn does not work at all now. I will try again. I will try again and I appreciate all your advice.
