Broken car alarm?

Well, first off, last night i had my christmas lights stolen off my walk way. It could have been my car...

The factory car alarm used to work, but lately it hasn't. The security light doesn't flash, or anything. The alarm doesnt go off. The open door beeper still works but the 'lights on' beeper ceased to work.

Is this a common problem? Invest in a new alarm? Buy a blinking light?

91 na

thanks

Are either of you sure you are arming the alarm correctly???

Locking the doors with the latch lever inside the car after the ign key has been turned off... and holding the outside door handles up while closing???

are you arming the alarm???

How can I unhook the horn on my alarm?? It goes off for no reason! It drives me nuts! There seems to be 2 different horns on my car on at hood latch and one on cross brace at oil cooler.
