You can use an ohmmeter or continuity tester. Connect one lead to ground and the other to each of your sensor wires. When you have a ground on the wire being tested, your meter will indicate continuity. Make sure the sensor wires are de-energized when testing with these methods, this may require you to disconnect the system power and unplug the backup battery. If you already know which wire is grounded, you'll need a transmitting/receiving device such as a circuit tracer or short tracer. This device will allow you to follow along a wire and detect approximately where the problem is.

Why do outlets have two prongs?
Actually they have 3. A round ground, wide neutral, and narrow hot. If it only has 2 it is an old outlet with no ground wire. If that is the case in your home, I highly suggest you connect a jumper wire from the ground screw to the white neutral wire on the silver screw to provide some protection. Do this at every outlet in the home. Replace all the outlets in your home with new ones if they are so old they do not have a ground connection.

1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo and the alarm system is activated for what seems to be without reason you no longer have a working clicker to deactive the alarm Car dies HELP?
I just had the same problem. This is how I fixed it. First, remove driver side kick panel, where hood release is located. Once kick panel is removed, you will see a bundle of wires. Locate the purple wire with yellow stripe. It will be leading into a black connection box. After you've located purple&yellow wire, remove just enough of the covering to expose a section of the wire(do not splice wire in half). From there, take a piece of similar gauge wire, and connect it to the exposed portion of the purple & yellow wire. Take other end of similar gauge wire, and ground it to some metal part of your jeep. This will ground out the alarm system all together.
