I put in a new battery and I was unable to start the car; I am wondering if this is due to the fact that I disconnected the alarm some time ago. This is the first time I've taken the battery out since I disconnected the alarm.
The alarm of a 2004 Honda Accord will go off when the battery is disconnected because it is part of the anti-theft systems programing. When the battery is reconnected the alarm automatically arms itself.
If your car alarm goes off on your Hyundai Elantra and the engine won't start, disconnect the battery. Leave it disconnected for several minutes.
UR ALARM IS MALFUNCTIONING
Needs a battery, most likely. Have the alternator checked after replacing the battery. Additional Info: It could also be a loose battery connection - check the battery cable clamps. Also, if the battery needs to be replaced, lock and unlock your doors with the key as the alarm system activates itself when a battery is removed, disconnected or replaced. Cycling the door lock cylinders resets the alarm.
Using the ignition key, lock and unlock the drivers door. This resets the car alarm which disables the ignition. The car will now start.
I've disconnected the battery. Why won't yours start?
unplug the battery, this will reset the car with the alarm disabled
The battery seems to be a problem on this vehicle. A recharge could fix the issue but a new battery may be necessary.
Pop up the hood and locate the alarm. It looks like a horn and is deafening. The cables to it can be easily disconnected. That should take care of your battery until you fix the issue. The fix:Open the door, start your car and lock-unlock the doors using your remote a number of times until the lights stop beeping. It usually takes 3-4 times. Now connect the alarm back
take them out . you should charge battery then be ok.
If the battery was dead or disconnected all trouble codes will be erased.
