How to tell if the alarm works !!

So this morning as I was getting in my Sport 5M I accidently pushed down the driver's door lock button. Not thinking anything about it I closed the door and proceeded to start the car.

Boy was I SUPRISED when the horn started sounding and the lights started flashing!

To stop it I had to shut the car off, get out, and relock the car with the remote from the key.

So, as a tip, if you DON'T want to set off the alarm, DO NOT LOCK THE CAR DOOR BEFORE YOU CLOSE IT

Another way is to have the windows down, doors lock, and reach through the window and pull up on the lock manually. I did that one day and wondered what the heck was going on. Same thing happened, required shorts change.
