Disabling panic button on key fob?
Guys,
I'd like to disable the panic button on my key fob. I inadvertently push it about once a week and cuss and swear while I fumble around trying to get in the car to silence the horn. Is there a way to disable the function?
Thanks!

You don't have to get into the car to stop it, Just hit the panic button again. Never heard of a way to disable it.

I posted about this once before, and I "think" one of the replies mentioned something about taking the fob apart and sticking a small piece of cardboard or something between the contacts under that button. I didn't actually try this however, so I'm not sure that it's easy or possible. But that's all I can really suggest.

I've done this twice while my car was parked in front of the big picture window of the aerobics class room. The second time I just hung my head in embarrassment. :o
