Lexus IS Alarm Problem..
Lexus IS Alarm Problem..
02-09-2016, 09:22 AM
I’ve just noticed a problem with my car alarm, and remember reading a post about it on another forum, but it seems that the post has been removed.
My car alarm went off today, but the sounder in the boot was so extremely quiet, it took me a while to work out that it was my car alarm that was going off.
I then set my alarm off on purpose to see if it was a one off fluke, but again it was still wasn’t working properly
Does any one remember why this is happening, and how to go about fixing it ?
Many thanks !!
Dave !

I went to shop once with my son in the car, I didnt realise that by pressing the lock once, activated all alarms and senses, and twice turns the internal ones off, i thought it was the opposite, so my son was in the car, so i only pressed it once,
the alarm went off and I didnt realise until i got out of the shop and my son was screaming his head off as the alarm was on.

To be honest this has reminded me about my IS200, the alarm was so low in volume I thought it was like that standard.

It's both isn't it, didn't you hear the horn? whenever I hear an alarm that sounds like a horn I check my car just incase.

Saraj To be honest this has reminded me about my IS200, the alarm was so low in volume I thought it was like that standard.

Soooo.....what ?
Was it working properly ?
If not did you fix it ? if so how ?
Otherwise i'm confused to how this is meant to help me ?
