1982 Corvette Facotry Alarm?

[Battlesmurf]

Hello!

I just recently sold my 1982 Corvette, and the new owner reports that there was an alarm on it, that is going off, that they can't shutt off? They were pretty excited, so I don't know what they tried, but does anybody know any information about this? I didn't know the car had one on it, and wouldn't know how it's triggered or shut off. It was shipped using DAS< so I'd imagine the battery was disconnected at some point. Please let me know when you can. Thanks!

The stock alarm is controled by the drivers door lock. Just insert the key and turn to unlock and should shut the alarm off. To arm the alarm, just use the key to lock the drivers door. The alarm also has a timer built into its system so it should shut off after a minute or two (to keep from running down the battery).
