Hello, I am new to the list. I just purchased #4912 and have discovered that it does have an alarm. The previous owner was not helpful in helping me to deactivate it. He told me it came with the car and that he turned it off. Well, he does not remember how and I cannnot figure it out. It is very annoying at times. There is a toggle switch on the steering column that controls it, but I cannot figure out how to change modes. The previous owner told me that he thought the alarm was a factory install, I cannot find any information on an alarm in the owners manual. Any help would be appreciated. I am enjoying the car. It tends to be hard to start when warm, and I am looking into that problem. which sounds like a common thread. I will look into the archives. Look forward to sharing on this list. Tired of the alarm going off all the time, Silas
