I've installed a Code Alarm CA-160 upon seeing a couple people here with them who seemed to like them. Everything working for the most part, and it was pretty easy to replace an existing (old and dying Prestige).
I just have a couple problems that I'm trying to figure out. 1. Parking lights do not work when arm/disarming. I've tapped into the same wire used by the old alarm, which worked at one time then one day stopped blinking the lights. Parking lights do not work after installing the new alarm. 2. Same issue with unlocking the doors when disarm.. the door switch works, but doesn't unlock the doors all the time. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Are there fuses or relays that could be causing the kind of problem or is it just electrical shorts I'm probably dealing with? |

I connected the new alarm wires to the old alarm wires for the parking lights, yes. I should probably make new splices.
