Permanently disable Subaru alarm without disabling fob
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video I show how to get to and remove the security module on my 2005 Baja. This does not disable the key fob. It will most likely be the same for 2000-2004 Subarus and probably ones prior.

Thanks for the vid. My alarm started shorting or something and wouldn't stop even with the key fob. Now I don't have to worry about it. You the best
This worked perfectly! No more alarm going off whenever I use my key. Thanks
Thank you so much!! Just did this on my 2000 Outback and it worked perfectly🙏 This was the fix I was looking for, you rock!
This worked for my 03 Outback. Thanks for the video!
This will absolutely work for a 2003 Forester although it’s located underneath the glovebox and the car will still turn on. Awesome video brother! Appreciate it.

Whats the colour of the box
Thank you so much. I have not been able to use my car for a week because of this, and all the videos I've watched show it with the key fob which I do not have.
I've just exactly as you have stated and it worked. now I'm good to go cos I've been halted several times by the security system ever since my control keys damaged. thanks
You can also just put it into "Valet mode". 1999-2004 vehicles. It will disable the system until you turn it back on again or if your battery goes flat. Then just do it again. 5. Valet mode or alarm off: alarm light (red dot center dashboard display) rapidly flashing 3 times means the alarm is in "Valet" mode and is not setable. The light will stop flashing when you start the car. To set valet mode or just to disable the security alarm system: 1. unlock all doors 2. physically open the driver's door 3. hold the UNLOCK button on remote for 2+ seconds or so. The red 'security' light will then flash 2 times a second until the car is turned on.

This if you don't want to take your vehicle apart to have missing options supposed to be there.
Thanks for this video helped me fix my 03 legacy that was having alarm issues for some unknown reason,, I never had a factory remote for mine
Needed a very short and a very long screwdriver and a putty knife; the hardest part was removing the two screws under the ash tray mount, but this procedure is brilliant! No more stupid alarm.
On the foresters of this year, the unit is behind the glove box, same exact box and plug. You can reach up right through the passenger side footwell, or you can take out the glove box.
I'll be trying this once it warms up on my '03 Imprezza. It didn't like the -47F weather yesterday and decided to set of the alarm and now it wont even turn over.
Would the module in my 2004 subaru legacy be behind my radio cause there's a harness back there that's empty that looks like that one
would this work on a Subaru 04 sti?
What if the horns and lights come on as soon as a battery is hooked up?

my 2000 Forester was doing that and what worked for a while is a "jumper" across the wires where the programming button used to be. I've kept a large bobby pin in the car, and with it clipped across the wires, the relays would reset and it would start. it's been sitting a few months and now that trick isn't working for mine.
How do I program one I just bought a 2006 Subaru Baja and it didn't come with a key fob
so i am curious if this will work for a 2005 forester xs?? my IMO is behind the glove box and i cant register my keyfob at all... also i wanted to know if there was any problems starting the engine or drivability issues??
So I have a friend who unplugged my security system but it also turned off my radio. How would I make it so I can still use my radio?
Thank you!
So i’m having issues programming a fob for my 1999 subaru legacy (the honk for when it’s in programming won’t go off) and i’m pretty sure it has something to do with the security system the person i bought it from bought it from a towing company. If anyone has any advice it’d be appreciated.
Many Thanks
Does this work for a 2003 Suburu Baja? Same process?
Does this work on a 2008 Subaru Legacy Outback?
You didn't mention an Outback does that work on a Subaru Outback 2000?
I have a 1997 Subaru Outback. Want to disable alarm completely. Just keep it with key. Can u help?
How do you do it on a 2000 forester
Thank you!!!
I have a 1998 Subaru legacy Forester I'm trying to figure out how to get the car reprogramed an have tried everything
Can I used this for a 2006 forester
Will this work on 2005 Impreza please?
I have a 2006 Subaru Baja Turbo. The security module was not located where indicated by your video (unless it is the impact module). Please let me know where I can locate the module, or find the alarm horn so I can take it out. I really am going crazy with the constant alarm not functioning properly. Thank you

RL Murphy It's possible someone installed an aftermarket alarm. It should be spliced in the wires somewhere, likely above the fuse box or in the kick panels.
2001 Forester S Great! Any idea how to get security light to stop blinking when you have no key fob? Also, do you know if key fob can or cannot be programmed when security is in "Valet" mode? Old Key fob was messed up and drained battery in 24 hours. Somehow car got into valet mode and was driven daily since. I got a new key fob and tried repeatedly to program it but no luck. Now the old lady got a new car, so I have plenty of time to play with fixing it.

Will these steps work in a 2005 SUBARU Forester? One key fob is busted, the other is on the way out.

yes, also there is a way by cycling the key a few times and opening the door. If I can find it I will post it, I haven't needed to do it in a while
Where can I get that part you removed? My car was just broken into and somebody stole that particular unit. The black box that is.

Austin Dean I would suspect it might be different. For the Baja I know you can turn the key on and off 3 times and it will kill the alarm.
Does it completely disable security? Making it old school?
what module is that that you removed? car still starts fine without that?

Not for 2005 outback, just took everything apart, no box there
Since I switched my battery my alarm system keeps going off every time I unlock the door I have a 2005 Subaru Legacy but I do not have the key fob just to key any advice?

Mine does the same. Subaru told me I can’t bypass the system (in my country/province) just to turn the key 10 times in a row to reset the alarm system, and to use the manual locks not the power locks anymore! Hope that helps in the meantime..
