It's likely a passive alarm so it doesn't have a sensitivity setting. Just messing with it wont set it off. If you want to test it roll the window down before you get out of the car. Shut the door and lock it like normal. Now reach inside and unlock the door with your hand and open the door. The alarm should go off.

Sounds good I’m going to try that. It started raining out here so I’ll have rob do it whenever it stops but thanks I appreciate it. Do you know when the mechanism isn’t located though?
