well when you unlock your car with the key it will turn the alarm off, and probably reset it so you can start the car. cause it kills the starter when the alarm goes off.

and for future reference, try putting the key in the ignition and giving it a turn to turn off the alarm

yah it just freaked me out really. but is there a way to reset the starter or something because all the fuses check out and the key just still turns with no cranking. everything is perfect but that.

you should've just opened the door with your key. of course if you lock it and closed the door, the car thinks you're outside, if you reach in while the alarm is armed, and unlocked it, what do you think it'll do? it will think that someone smashed the window and trying to steal the car.
