I have a '98 Lexus ES300, and if I try to open any door when the car is locked, the alarm will be activated. What I do is when the alarm starts blaring is that I get in the car and turn the ignition, which disables the alarm. To avoid this I just leave one door unlocked, but that obviously has security issues.

Is there a way to permanently disable this alarm? I don't have the key with the alarm buttons. I'm 99% sure that it's the factory alarm.

I've had this issue for several years now. A few years ago I was able to disable the alarm by opening the trunk, but that doesn't work anymore.

I would like to permanently disable/remove the alarm. If that's not possible, then another option is to be able to disable the alarm by opening the trunk.

  • Unlock the car before opening the door... But why don't the locks work properly?

Try finding the fuse that leads to the alarm and yank it out... That should disable it.

  • Many alarm systems have batteries built in, so that if you cut the main battery cables on the vehicle the alarm will still sound.
