I know that sounds like a silly question, but allow me to explain. I have a 2006 Kia Rio 5, no previous owners. When I put the cables on the new battery, the horn starts blowing and the lights start flashing. I have no alarm system on the car, so it must be some factory system default.
I've tried hitting the panic button on my key fob, locking and unlocking doors, turning the ignition on and off, opening and closing doors, anything I can think of, but to no avail. There are no blown fuses and I know the key fob is in working order.
Is there a preliminary step I'm missing besides simply attaching the cables?
