To disarm the alarm without the remote control, just incase your remote/blip key doesn't work:
- unlock the doors with the key and enter the vehicle (this will start the alarm off)
- within 10 seconds of the alarm sounding, press and hold the ultrasonics override switch (to the right of the steering wheel) whilst turning on the ignition.
If necessary, repeat the procedure if the siren restarts (after 30 seconds)
I have to do this each time I disconnect and reconnect the battery.

To reconnect a disconnected battery without the alarm going off, simply put the key in the ignition and turn it to the "ignition on" position. Then connect your battery . Dead easy and peaceful too! Oh! remember to remove your keys before you forget where you put them!!
If the light remains on then the system still isn't charging as it should. Check the plug on the alternator and also that the wires to the alt have a good connection.
i think you are having problem with your alternator its not charging your battery
A battery charging pad is something that you can just lay your devices on top of and it charges them without you having to plug them in. They are sold at Wal-Mart.
It means you are having a problem with the charging system. Have the alternator and battery checked. Good Luck!!!
You need to check if the ALTERNATOR is giving the correct output so as to charge the battery. By having a volt meter across the batery terminals one can then rev the engine and the voltage accross the battery should be about 13.8 volt indicating that the Alternator is charging the battery. If this 12 volt bateery voltage does not increase, this indicates a charging problem (mostly with the alternator either the brushes or one of the diodes in the alternator).
"Bubbling" of Electrolyte in Vehicle Batteries While ChargingThat is usually caused by having the charging rate[Amperes (Amps)] set too high.
This could also be alternator problems as in a bad diode in the alternator.
"was having charging system problem so alternator was replaced now car keeps flooding and won`t fire.
It means the battery is not being charged or is being overcarged. Could be the drive belt loose, the battery getting old/having distorted plates. Could be the alternator not producing enough voltage/charging current, or, rarely, too much. Local tyre & battery centre can do a discharge test on the battery. A meter across the battery will show if battery charging properly. Make sure all the cable connections between the body, battery and engine are clean and secure.
Only the portables. A regular desk phone won't unless there is a battery backup to the memory dial feature
I disagree. I was having issues with my heater taking a long time to heat up. I had to have my battery replaced and my heater functioned normally after that.
Yes, a loose battery cable will prevent the alternator from charging the battery. The drain on the battery is not caused by the engine not running unless an accessory is left on. Most likely, the drain is caused by accessories (radio, lights, etc) while the engine is running due to the battery not receiving its charge from the alternator and then not having enough charge left to start the engine.
