Valet Mode? How do I turn it off?

dnbrdy · 09-16-2006, 01:58 PM

Hey everyone, I recently took my car in to the dealer and they managed to disable the alarm system (putting it into valet mode). Does anyone know the way to enable the alarm system again? I know it has something to do with putting the key in and out of the ignition X times, but I am not sure the exact method. I have tried a few different things and nothing works. The dealership claims to not even know how to do it. Hopefully someone out there has had similar problem. Thanks in advance!

You check your car manual...It might be a place to start

I already thought of that one. It's not in there. The post is my "thinking outside the box" on the matter.

Did you try the lock on the bit of plastic below the driver's seat? The one behind the lever that either pops the trunk or flips out the fuel door?

That's in the manual, btw.

It has something to do with putting the key in and out of the ignition a certain amount of times. That is how you enable/disable valet mode. I just need to know the amount of times and exact method to it.
