Brand new member, first post, no profile filled out. I wouldn't feel comfortable discussing bypassing security without a little more information. Why do you want to bypass it? Your car? What year, what transmission?

a handgun of your choice and caliber will do the job or you can constantly keep working on it and have it in pieces, that does a pretty good job of keeping it immobile

I guess he didn't want to come right out and ask us how to steal a c5. I wonder if he posted in the c6 tech also.

Actually, I would like to disable my alarm system while retaining the door locking function. My neighbor has a alarm system for his truck that occasionally sets off my Vet alarm. And always when I'm not home and always at 5 AM. My neighbors are ticked off at me!!

File a complaint with your HOA. They're typically a vicious bunch.

No HOA, just a 45ACP.

Why don't you NOT arm the system and just lock your door with the key?

I know it's against the man rules to read it, but from the owner's manual:

The theft-deterrent system won’t arm if you lock the
driver’s door with a key, the manual door lock, or if you
use the power door lock after the doors are closed.

It makes no difference whether I leave the alarm unarmed or not. The way he fiddles with his alarm (locking and unlocking) seems to make my alarm go crazy. I normally don't leave my car armed or locked in my garage. I guess I'll just live with it. Rod

It sounds like that one in a million chance of both systems using the same RF frequency. Other than changing the frequency, which I'm not sure is possible, or one of you changing alarms, there isn't much that can be done.

Something else is going on. The possibility that his frequency is setting off the alarm with the alarm not set is near zero. Your fobs are programmed to your car and use a rolling frequency. He would somehow have to set your alarm and then physically trigger it by opening a door (for example). Merely having the same frequency might possibly in some freak way might enable or disable your alarm, but it wouldn't make the alarm go off unless the car was in some way "violated". The horns can only be set off via frequency by the "panic" button. I don't think bypassing your alarm will do you any good, if his frequency is setting the "panic" mode, that's not related to the security system, except that the horn sounds.

The alarm and panic feature both use the same RF receiver, don't they? I can't think of anything other than a frequency overlap that could be causing this.

My point is that the "alarm" isn't the problem. Neither is the security. The neighbor's remote would have to be triggering the "panic" function. Otherwise, just turning on the alarm (security) would not make the alarm sound unless the door were opened. Therefore, his question about bypassing the theft security would not be answered by bypassing it. He would have to disable the receiver, and therefore his remote function and tpms mode. In other words, apparently his neighbor has the frequency of the "panic" function of the fob and is using it, maybe even just to annoy him.
