disable alarm system
#31
Well, did you read the thread? There are 3 previous pages. This has been discussed in a number of different threads that can be found easily, the info is not hiding. I don't have the problem, so I'm not inclined to search for the threads.

A member posted then deleted a question that this thread attempts to answer, then thought that I insulted him with my answer, then deleted his response to me.
I almost undeleted just to make me look less crazy, but I guess if somebody is not willing to let their comments stand I can live with that.
The exact answer to the question is in post #2 in this thread that he testily claimed he read.
To restate:
The answer is NO. If you use the power locks then open with the key the alarm will go off.

Just to throw out an answer to the how you can disable the alarm question.
It can not be disabled easily.
but if you lock your doors with manual knobs and use the key in the door to lock the car the next time you unlock the car with the key the alarm will not go off.

Here's what I have found that may help the next person with the same issue. If you put your HHR in Neutral, then turn the ignition off, the doors remain locked. You can now place the shifter in Park and manually unlock the drivers door to exit. This will save you from having to go around and manually lock doors and this will also keep lock the rear tailgate locked.
EDIT; Page 3-48 in the owners manual has a setting change that will allow only the driver's door to unlock.

Or you could do as I did. I cut into the power lock wire and installed another momentary contact switch in a hidden location on the bottom of my HHR.
I've done this with all my cars that have had the power lock button because my wife really likes to lock the keys in our cars.
If you don't feel like breaking into your car this button is darn handy.
It would also be a viable alternative to carrying a key fob with the remote entry button on it.
