OEM Alarm/keyless entry and blinking LED

[fredo328]

I know that when I unlock the car with my keyless entry and it deactivates my alarm that if I hear a couple of fast beeps it means that the car was messed with or the alarm was activated for some reason. The red led by the stick then blinks to tell me what the problem is. Three fast blinks means something as do two or four fast blinks. Question is, does anyone know what the issues are corresponding to the number of blinks? Thanks. By the way, I do have the alarm horn turned off so I do not hear the beep when I lock or unlock.

It doesn't sound like a factory alarm/keyless module. Mine always makes a couple of fast beeps when I push unlock button. Besides, the only times the factory alarm would go off, is if the glass was broken, or the hood was popped open. In each of these cases, a visual inspection will make it clear what has happened. Oh - and if you use the key to open a car that was locked with keyless fob, that will make the alarm go off (until you push the unlock key on the fob or start the car with the key). When alarm is started, it keeps going on for a very long time (I didn't have the patience to find out if it ever stops).
