02 ws6, ive had security issues with my car since ive had it. I cant lock it and unlock it without the security going off and not allowing me to turn the engine over for like 10 minutes. Of course my horn has been disabled because it became so regular but i found this sensor in the rear by the spare tire. Would it be fine to disconnect it? I never lock it anyways anymore but id like to have a horn again without being worried about it going off randomly.. The sensor sticker reads "theft deterent shock sensor set at factory to comply with legal requirements. See owners manual for more info"
From the 00 owners manual:
First enter programming mode:
- Turn ignition to RUN
- Turn ignition to OFF
- Remove RADIO fuse
- Turn ignition to ACC
To turn off theft deterrent system altogether:
- Press unlock switch on door, listen to number of chimes
- Keep pressing switch until you hear 1 chime
For 8 second door alarm delay and shock sensor disabled:
- Turn parking lamps on and off, listen to number of chimes
- Keep turning parking lamps on and off until you hear 2 chimes
