Factory Alarm Sys

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Last year I got a Edge and I thought it came with the factory alarm system, which associated with the key. Is this true? Do I need to install another alarm system for it?

 

Thanks,

 

Max

 

Hi zepher. :D You do not mention a year (2007 etc.) or trim level (SE, SEL etc.), so without researching whether all Edge models came standard with an alarm from the factory, I can't answer your question off the top of my head.

 

However, you can find out yourself. So to put your mind at ease, do the following:

 

1 - Go out to your Edge and roll the drivers window down

2 - Exit the vehicle and lock the doors with the keyfob (remote button).

3 - Go into your house (or sit on your front steps for a minute of two).

4 - After a minute or two, reach in through the open window and open the door using the inside door handle (do not unlock the car first).

5 - If you have an alarm, it will sound off. If you hear nothing, you do not have a factory alarm system.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Good luck. :beerchug:

Thanks a lot. My edge is 2007 SE standard.

 

I would try it today. :-)
