Default Adjust alarm sensitivity

I want to change the sensitivity settings on my upgrade alarm. I have the information on how to make the changes but I cannot locate the program button that has to be depressed for 10 seconds to enter the learn/program mode. This is supposed to be the same button that is used to program a new remote. Went to my local dealer and they had no clue. Any help out there?

I'm still looking for the thing with no luck. Ford tech couldn't find it in the shop manuals that he had.

Mine is under my dash, to the right of the stearing colum. but keep in mind I had my alarm upgraded with an UNGO Alarm + Remote Start and that could be what I have. In my case it is a "box" mounted deep in the recess with a little glowing light on it and a tiny red button.

My alarm is the factory upgrade alarm offered as an option over the stock alarm. I don't know why this is such a secret since it is the same button used to program a new remote transmitter but my Ford boys can't find any info on the location.

Thanks PW, I'll look for this tonight.. In case this is the button on PW's upgraded alarm and not the factory.. anyone know which is the "program" button on the stock Anthi-theft system?

Well I have found out a little more about this situation. To get to the program new transmitters function is done through cycling the ignition switch and apparently has nothing to do with the alarm. I have info about adjusting alarm but it advises to hold down a program button for 10 seconds. I find no such button. I am about to conclude that this alarm (factory upgrade) is not adjustable. Have been trying to find this out for two months. Looks like what you see is what you get.

My dealership has a guy who specializes in mods and upgrades. He will probably know the answer, but I won't be able to get to the dealership for a couple of weeks. I've got the alarm upgrade and need to find this stuff out too, so if you haven't found an answer by the time I get back to the dealer, I'll see what I can find out.
