Reset factory alarm on 1997 tahoe - 1995-1997 Chevy Tahoe Ignition Starter Alarm Switch

To disable the alarm system in a 2001 Chevy Tahoe, try the following steps:

1. Close all doors and windows.
2. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "ON" position.
3. Within 10 seconds, press the lock button on the driver's door five times. The alarm system should turn off.

Note: The above steps assume that your 2001 Chevy Tahoe has a factory-installed alarm system. If it has an aftermarket alarm system, the steps to disengage it may be different.

What alarm ? Content theft alarm ? Think's the vehicle is being broken into ? Something other then horn going off ? This is the factory alarm .

Content Theft Deterrent (CTD) System
The Content Theft Deterrent function provides the theft deterrent by sounding the horn and flashing the headlamps and the park lamps when there is an unauthorized vehicle entry or there is tampering detected.

Most factory alarms reset when key is turned on. Remotes are available through the factory still bought by VIN #

to disarm the factory alarm try unlocking driver door with the key. does it blow the horn or does it have a siren?

CAR ALARM ISSUES

It can be any of the car doors not got properly locked or the door is locked but the switch is not sensing the door locked. Open and close each door again properly.

Or else its problem with any of switch wiring getting in contact with alarm wiring causing it to happen.

And last thing alarm connections need to be inspected. It's getting short somewhere in between.

There are few help links with solutions, to troubleshoot these types of problems. I suggest going through these links.

Try turning your key in the driver's door cylinder while the alarm is going off. That should shut the factory alarm down.

lock your doors and close it wait till alarm resets and then unlock door with key and this should take care of you problem

the only way to reset an alarm is to disconnect the battery cables.

there is no such thing as an alarm reset switch.

My suggestion would be to go to autozone, they sell replacement key pads.
