Factory Alarm Settings
horn
Page 3-5 & 3-6. Hold the lock and unlock buttons on the key for more than 2 seconds. This toggles between Horn/Hazard Indicator and Hazard Indicator Only. I just confirmed this with my 02SE. One small point is that Nissan did not completely separate the horn and the lights. When in Hazard Indicator only the car will flash twice when armed and will NOT flash when unarmed. It will still unlock the driver's door (or all doors when hit twice). There just won't be any visual confirmation.

if this turns out to be true for everyone, couldnt you get around that by disconnecting the horn from the alarm physically? eh now that i think about it, if you do that then the horn wont sound if someone opens the doors when the alarm is armed. but i guess this is an option for people who plan to get an aftermarket alarm with a siren.

I did find the section in the manual concerning possible problems with other keys and other things (something about some kind of automatic doors, etc.) a little disconcerting. I would suggest the 02 owners read up on that keyless entry system.

You can also argue that not flashing the lights will make the bulbs last longer. I'm guessing that Nissan did this to make sure they didn't get too many cases of people claiming the horn weren't beeping.
