Default Alarm Arming Question

OK, in my 02 Z06, I could set the car so that when I lock the doors with the key fob, only the lights will flash. The horn did not honk.

In the 2003 Z06 I just picked up, it only gives me the options for honk with flash and just honk. No flash only. Is this normal? Or is something wrong?

Hi,
i have a similar problem with my 01 Z, i just have the flash,
In my car i can only choose
 LOCK & ARM - OFF
 LOCK & ARM - LIGHTS ONLY
I wonder where the other options have gone?
Is this something the TECH 1 or 2 can fix?

regards
MickeW

Hmmm... Weird... I wonder if between the years they played with different options instead of just giving us all the options.

Anyone know?

According to the owners manual:

Lock and Arm

Press the OPTIONS button until LOCK & ARM
appears on the display, then use the RESET button to
page through the following selections:
 LOCK & ARM - OFF
 LOCK & ARM - HORN ONLY
 LOCK & ARM - LIGHTS ONLY
 LOCK & ARM - HORN & LIGHTS

If you choose LOCK & ARM - OFF, you will receive no
security feedback when locking or unlocking your vehicle.
If you choose LOCK & ARM - HORN ONLY, only the
horn will chirp to let you know when your alarm system
has armed when locking your vehicle.
If you choose LOCK & ARM - LIGHTS ONLY, only
your exterior lamps will flash to let you know when your
alarm system has armed when locking your vehicle.
If you choose LOCK & ARM - HORN & LIGHTS, the
horn will chirp and the exterior lamps will flash briefly
to let you know the system has armed when locking
your vehicle.


Alarm

Press the OPTIONS button until ALARM appears on
the display, then use the RESET button to page through
the following selections:
 ALARM-HORN
 ALARM HORN & LIGHTS

If you choose ALARM-HORN, the horn will sound
during an alarm.
If you choose ALARM HORN & LIGHTS, the horn
will sound and the interior and exterior lamps will flash
during an alarm.

It's amazing the info contained in the owners manual. Just busting your chops.

I still have my 02 manual. I don't think the 03 manual is in there, but I'd bet they're identical.

Glad you got that sorted out.

I like having the owner's manual in PDF form, makes it much easier to search and copy/paste info.
