I have a 2003 Toyota Matrix with a factory alarm and I would like to disable the horn chirp when arming/disarming the alarm.   I found the following in another thread:

| DISARM NO UNLOCK|blu/blk (key sense) |- |ignition harness            |
|       TACHOMETER|black *2            |   |pin 5, conn. 4 @ PCM *3     |
|      SPEED SENSE|PURPLE / white        |   |pin 17, conn. 3 @ PCM *3    |
|       BRAKE WIRE|GREEN / WHITE        |+ |brake pedal switch          |
|     HORN TRIGGER|GREEN/ YELLOW        |- |steering column             |
| SUN RF OPN/CLOSE|green - red        |A |sunroof switch assembly     |

 Would I just need to disconnect the GREEN/ YELLOW wire in the steering column harness ?

If you disconnect that wire, the horn button on the steering wheel will no longer work either.

You would have to look in the owner's manual to see if the factory system offers a silent arm/disarm option.
