Disable a Checkmate Alarm System
I've had a 1996 Honda Civic for the past three years and due to the cold weather, the battery finally died. I put a replacement battery in yesterday and the alarm system started going off, so I turned the ignition key to 'on' and hit the reset button below the dashboard. This turned the alarm (made by Checkmate) off.
Now I was under the impression that the alarm system had been disabled by the previous owner. I've had the car for the last three years and I've never heard the alarm go off. Now, whenever I unlock the door (manual locks) and open the door, the alarm goes off. My question is: was my car in some kind of alarm bypass mode for the past three years? If so, how can I get back to that mode? And if it comes down to it, how do I remove the alarm?
EDIT: Got it, method #1 below. Thanks for cluing me in on 'valet mode.'
Remote starters, also sometimes referred to as remote keyless ignition systems, are rather complex systems that allow a person to start their car without having to be physically inside of the vehicle. Most can work from some distance away. For example, a person may be able to start their car from inside of their home or office, depending on the system and the strength of the signal.
As when you start your car normally, starting a car with a remote keyless ignition system will also turn on all of the settings you left on when last exiting your car. If you left the stereo and air conditioner on, they will also turn on when you remotely start you car. The same can be said of the heater. Some newer models include options to control these systems remotely. This makes them ideal for locations that experience extreme temperatures.
Remote start systems work in much the same way as a keyless entry system, car alarm remote, or even a television remote. When a button on the remote control is depressed, it sends a signal to a receiver box installed inside of the vehicle.

The receiver box is connected to the car's starter wire, brake wire, power wire, ignition switch, ignition wire, tachometer, and ground wire. All of these systems or wires are involved in some way in the ignition of a car. Some remote start systems may also be connected to a car's electronic door locks, as well. When the box inside of the vehicle receives the signal, it supplies power to the car's ignition systemexactly replicating what happens when a driver turns the key.

Most keyless ignition systems are connected to the tachometer so they can monitor a car's RPM. This allows them to verify that a car has started, in which case they stop supplying power to the starter. This ensures they do not grind the starter once ignition has taken place. Some systems will provide visual confirmation of ignition, like blinking the lights, so that the vehicle owner knows the car has started successfully. Systems that are connected to a car's electronic locks will lock the doors as a theft prevention measure.
