I have the same problem and when I have to go to the store of something I pop the rear hatch so the alarm won’t activate till I replace the door switches.

You can just unplug the switch for the hood and then it will not arm.

This defective factory alarm was taken care many years back under warranty, mine included. Undergoodwill they may provide this service ask your local dealer.

Explanation: This unlocking problem is attributed to HOW you lock your car. After testing the keyless on my car extensively, what it boils down to is that you must lock your car with the keyless entry or with the key.

The system is not smart enough to detect when the door is locked using the interior door lock switch. When you lock your car this way, the keyless entry system "thinks" that the car is still unlocked even though it actually is. Hence, when you try to unlock your car with the remote on the first try, you are actually locking it. The second try is necessary to unlock the car.

By using your remote or car key to lock your car, you're keyless entry will always unlock the doors on the first try. You just may want to get into the habit of using the interior door lock switch to lock the doors only when you are inside driving the car.

Do you hear a siren going off or do you hear the horns on your car blaring? If it's a siren, you have an aftermarket alarm and it needs to be dealt with differently.

Correction the switch is open when the hood is closed so unpluging it will not stop the system from arming. You will need to unplug it but then jumper the car side of the plug.

no siren. stock alarm.

i probably do not have the skill set to jumper the car side of the plug.
i have never jumpered anything before and i do not know what to jumper the car side of the plug to. i guess i will have to take it to the dealer

Maybe it is a bit difficult if you are not comfortable with doing electrical. But you would jump the wire to a round. So basically most bare metal parts on your car. Usually you would use a ring terminal and use some OEM bolt to secure the ring terminal, then take the other end of the wire on the ring terminal and splice it into the plug or wire.

Quick way that many Legend owners prevent the factory alarm from arming (due to a bad door lock acutator) is to disconnect the hood switch and simply jump the car side of the plug with a paper clip (straighten out a paper clip and stick one end of it in each terminal of the plug). You can then wrap it up in a bit of electrical tape, and you're done.

OK I looked at my car and the easy way is to just unscrew the switch and let it hang, no cutting or jumpering.

would spraying electrical contact cleaner in the key lock mechanism help ??
i figured you would be the best person to ask...

 

[Briank]

I have not seen how the alarm switch for the key is setup but I would guess spraying the cylinder would not get to the switch. I also assume the switch contacts are the problem and they would be separately enclosed so even if you could get to it you would not have access to the contacts.
