lefty2053 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) I bought traded for this car a while back and the guy told me what to do with the alarm in case the battery went dead but I have since forgotten. I DO NOT have remote entry. Just one single key is all he gave me. I know I am supposed to push in the button under the dash and hold it until the doors lock. I also have the key turned to the on position while holding the button in. I just don't know what to do after that? I tried 3 times and it turns over but will not start. What I would like to do it Disable the Alarm. Thanks for any help. Edited January 5, 2012 by lefty2053 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prolly less costly then going to a Subie dealer. I don't know of a short term solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prolly less costly then going to a Subie dealer. I don't know of a short term solution. Thanks for the info.. I finally found a solution for now. I disconnected the ground to the battery and waited 10 Minutes. I then turned the key to the on position and then reconnected the battery. Turned the key off and then it started right up. I looked at a lot of ideas and none of them worked until I found that one. I also did find a diagram of the complete Factory setup and in it the guy said I could have just disconnected the Starter Interrupt Harness for a second and then back in and then it would have started. Didn't try that as the first worked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 what year, model of car?? different years have different issues. my wife locks our '01 outback H6 with the remote and the alarm sets. i unlock it with the key and the alarm sounds. this disables the starter. but if i put in the key and try to start it 3 times, it will start on the fourth time, (off to start and back).

davebugs Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 And if it's a late 90's I have some keyfobs here heading to Ebay. I have on esquare one and one a little more teardrop shaped. Both probably need batteries by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 got one for an '01?? pm me if you do with pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I doubt it. By that I mean I did 95-99's Outbacks and one 99 Forester. And I assume the alarm/keyfob changed basically with the body style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both probably need batteries by now. Called Autozone and they said they would call me back on the price which they never did today. Does the FOB's work with all Subaru's? Mine is a 97 Legacy GT. Sedan. DOn't they need Programmed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I've got one for that.The usual rectangle one with 2 square black buttons. Can't swear it works or that battery is good. PM me if interested with an email and I'll send you a pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
