Question:

How do I disable my car alarm without removing my car alarm?

I have a mazda 6 2004, and the car alarm is absolutely annoying. I would park on the street and when a truck or large vehicle would drive by, it would trigger the alarm because of the vibration. I removed the Horn Relay from the fuse box and that did the trick, but also took out my steering wheel horn. Would I have to go to a mazda dealership?

Answer:

The alarm should have its own fuseOr take off the neg lead on battery and then disconnect the alarm wires, cover with wire nuts or tape.
Usually you can adjust its sensitivity instead of just disabling it, it may just be set close to the maximum or at it and need to be toned down a little. I can't give you step by step instructions on how to change the sensitivity as it varies from alarm to alarm, but it it's an alarm Mazda put in it I'd call them and ask. One of my cars did something similar, just needed it's sensitivity adjusted.
You can plug the main wire that hooks up to the ignition. If you don't know where that is, go to a local mechanic, or a friend that knows a lot about cars.
