Knowing which alarm model is installed on your car is necessary for emergency shutdown, programming, troubleshooting. Each security system has its own technical characteristics, and in order to operate with them you need instructions, which you should always carry with you in your car.

Instructions
Step 1
Even in the same model range of alarms, there are technical differences that are inherent in each system separately. This is done to ensure even greater security of security systems. Therefore, if you want to make changes to the operation of the alarm, you need to use the instructions strictly from this alarm model.
Step 2
There are several ways to determine which alarm model is on your car. Start with your keyring. Most manufacturers indicate the name of the alarm on it. But besides the name, there is also a model. In this case, you can use the catalog of car security systems on the Internet. By the name of the alarm and the type of key fob, you can find exactly the model. Download and print the installation or operating instructions there.
Step 3
If the key fob has not been saved, or the name is not readable on it, you can determine the model by the alarm unit. It is hidden under the dashboard. An LED is installed on the dashboard, from which a wire goes to the unit. To search for the block along the wire, you will have to disassemble the lower part of the dashboard. On the block itself, both the brand of the alarm and its model must be indicated.
