unplug your battery for 15 minutes be sure to have the stereo code should completely reboot the car and fix the issue. Also for a complete drain of the cars system remove both battery connectors and touch um together for a second to properly reboot the cars system.

The car still wont start the alarm just keeps going..help please
you must have a bad wire some where crossing your alarm if it just keeps going off try doing what i said above it might work.
I had the same problem. No matter what I did the car alarm would not stop. I left the battery disconnected for 5 hours. No luck. I tried every damn method of resetting it. Finally I followed this video (which tells you how to prorgram a new VOB). I didn't have a new VOB I was just desperate. I was hoping this would somehow reset the alarm and it did! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CJdGCTaW8Q

Also, a quick fix I learned. Remove positive battery cable. Get in car and turn ignition on while battery cable is off. Then reconnect cable. Start your car and drive.
