Listed below are some tips on how to buy an affordable car alarm with good quality. The tips will help you spot a good car alarm from the bad one. This will also help you find the best way to find an installer for your car alarm so as to avoid any problems from occurring.
— Most people search on the World Wide Web in order to look for a cheap car alarm. The internet is full of websites that sell car alarm accessories and car alarms.

The newest model of car alarms are those that page the owner via its remote that can work even at a maximum of 3000 ft whenever there is an intrusion. There is also a model that is called a ‘GSM based car alarm’. This so-called GSM based car alarm will call the owner on its cellular phone if there is a possible intrusion to the car. This can even allow the owner to listen to the activity inside the car. With this new innovation, the owner can now shut down the engine and talk to the robber with just a push of a button from the owner’s cellular phone. Advancements in car alarms include the GPS feature where in the owner can track the car’s or vehicle’s whereabouts via cellular phone.
— Some people buy either directly from a dealer, purchase from a shop or via internet transactions. There are many kinds of alarms for your car and different brand names as well. In order to differentiate which car alarm is of good quality, check its wiring harness. The thicker the wire, the better. This is due to the fact that it can withstand the electrical current. Low quality car alarms use very thin wiring.
— Look at the diagram of the wiring. Most good quality car alarms use the same color coding. This is while car alarms of low quality use a different one. The idea of a universal color system makes an experienced installer install a car alarm in no time. If the color coding is different, the installer can have a hard and long time installing the car alarm. This can also waste precious time and money if ever the installer charges his services by the hour.
Below is a list of how the wiring must be coded.
The ‘RED’ wire is equal to 12+ Positive
The ‘BLACK’ wire is equal to Negative Ground
The ‘WHITE’ wire is equal to Parking Lights
The ‘BROWN’ wire is equal to Siren
The ‘BLUE’ wire is equal to Shock Sensor or Sensor Input
The ‘ORANGE’ wire is equal to Negative when Armed
The ‘VIOLET’ wire is equal to Door Lock
The ‘PURPLE’ wire is equal to Door Lock
The codes listed above are basically the wire connections on the car alarm’s main harness. Alarm systems have lots of wires but the ones listed above are most important ones that any customer must look for.
