Security System?
Hi I have a 2001 Neon SE and as far as I thought it really doesn't have any security features, however in the manual they talk about if it does it will protect the hood trunk, ect.. It also says when u set it you dash light will blink.. I figured I didn't have this because I don't have a blinking light in my dash.. However I noticed in my hood area I do have a pin switch with a wire hooked to it.. I've tried locking the doors where the horn beeps then opening my hood.. Nothing happens.. Is there a certain way to turn the alarm on or what?
The name of the thread is "New neon alarm".
Thanks to Big Red Jim from srtforums.com for this one. Hopefully this might help some of you who either didn't know what to do or that you ever COULD do this. Apparently though, this will work on all 03+ Neon's with keyless entry. Just bring these instructions to your dealer and you're good ta' go
quote:
Connect DB3 to car located inside the car near hood release up and to right 3 inches. It is a white serial port.
Put DBR3 into to "Stand Alone 98-04"
Once in "stand alone 98-04" go to "security"
Once in "security" go to VTSS
Once in "VTSS" go to "misc"
Once in "misc" go to "configure"
Once there change "RKE" to "VTA"
After you are done the lock button will turn on the alarm showing a round red light on the instrument cluster above gas gauge for exactly 17 seconds after that the red light will go in to a slow blink.

You might want to call the dealer beforehand to see if they are going to charge you for this or do it for free. Some dealers are charging, some give you a freebie....best to check to avoid a surprise.....
