    weird alamrt sound at cold

    Hi,

    Does anyone else have this problem? At cold temperture (like if I dont' drive my vx for 2 days) the alamrt sounds weird (a low pitch beebee tone instead of high pitch beebee) but once warm up alarm sounds normal.

    I get a two toned beep once in a while too. Kinda like a doorbell. It doesn't happen often enough to worry me and the alarm, remote locks and panic function works fine so I just disregard it.

    My alarm won't make a sound at all. I've tried the key in the ignition thing several times as the manual describes, but I can't get a tone when locking/setting the alarm or unlocking/unsetting. Anyone have any idea why or what I may be doing wrong. I asked the dealership but they didn't even understand what I was talking about. The only way I can tell if my VX locks is to watch the lights blink.

    Alarm piezo is located beneath the brake vacuum area and could be dimaged, dirty or removed. Cold temps could also affect it’s sound if it is there.
