My alarm remote hasn't been working correctly, but when my daughter was playing with it she seemed to turn on the alarm. Now I can't get it to shut off. I can get to the wires under my dash that all connect to my alarm system, which is through autopage. How do I reset my alarm system or turn it off.?

look for a switch under the left side of the dash. that should turn it off, otherwise you can remove the positive cable on the battery, turn the key to the on position and re install the cable. this will dis arm most aftermarket systems.

I've tryed to take the positive cable off and put the key in the on position. Is there a certain time I need to leave it off or something because it didn't work.
