Try leaving your neg terminal off your battery overnight. Then, re-set your remote to your system. That may help.
In my (almost 4) years of daily visits to the SVX forums, this is the first time I've heard this particular problem mentioned. Interesting.

"Unhook your freakin' alarm and run like hell. Your car may be posessed like that whacko "Christine" in the movie of the same name. The dang car could repair its own dents and it killed lots of people. So, RUN! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" Ahem. Is that pretty accurate, Alltrac? (Geez, you guys need to get out more so that you can understand more diverse tongues. )

I seem to remember something in the manual about the alarm having an unauthorized remote warning feature. Basically, if it detected a code from an unauthorized remote, it would set a code which you could read from the status LED. I don't remember if it also beeped the horn or not.
Something else to try is replacing the battery in the remote. KuoH Quote:
