The easiest way to reset your car alarm system is to remove the car alarm system fuse. You can also remove the positive cable from the battery. In both cases return the component to its original position after 10 seconds.
This is a highly specialized question. Due to the enormous variety of anti-theft systems, there is no one answer. Check your owner's manual, online at the manufacturers website, or from the dealer/store you bought it at.
many times simply removing the negative cable(black-) from its terminal and reattaching it will reset the alarm and in many cases,your cars computer system.
For my particular car, I had to turn the ignition on for ten minutes, turn it off for five seconds, repeat twice, then, on the third time, turn the ignition on, wait seven seconds, then turn to start. Each car is different. I suggest you go to All-Data. Their web address is http://www.alldatadiy.com . (The 'diy' means 'Do It Yourself'.) This is the site just about all auto repair mechanics use, (even the dealerships,) and it makes a Chilton or Hanes auto manual look like a cartoon book. They cover everything from recalls to bulletins to every aspect of repair you can think of, including the alarm system re-learn procedure. The cost is about $20 or $25 for the first vehicle and about $16 for each additional vehicle and the subscription is good for a year. (Commercial subscriptions are about $150/month, I think.) DEFINATELY worth the cost if you are going to do ANYTHING to your car. See for yourself.
ANSWER: If your having problems with the anti-theft not allowing your 1997 Malibu to start you can jack up your car and jump the starter Then turn key in ignition till starter catches. Leave car running for about 20 min and light will off.
Ok, a bit of work is involved in terminating
a factory Nissan alarm system.
Normally, you would insert the key in
the drivers door, turn left, then right
to disarm and reset it. If yours is malfunctioning,
you can disable it for good by doing the following:
The FACTORY ALARM DISARM WIRE IS
white/blue |-| at the door lock switch in
the drivers door. Meter these wires while turning the
key in the driver door key cylinder.
Once Located, splice into this wire with
a similar guage wire, and put it to
a solid chassis ground. This terminates
the alarm functions entirely.
However, at this point, this car would be exceedingly
easy to steel, so I suggest you get an aftermarket
alarm system to protect it from here on in.
Hope you can nail it for the neighbors, (and your)
sake!

Fix the problem with the alarm.
Somehow you set off the antitheft system. In order to reset it you have to unlock the drivers door with the key.
Turn the key forward for ten min. then shut the key off then try to start it.
Because there are tumblers in the lock where you put the key in. When you put the right key in, all the tumblers are put in the right place and all the sensors are then turned off so the car will start. When all the tumblers are not put in the right position due to a bad key, the sensors stay on so when you turn the key, the cr won't start and the antitheft alarm goes off
Remove the fuse. smokingallowed say's: Removing the fuse will only erase the memory from the computer,and it will have to relearn what it should know. It will not reset the theft system. Here's how to reset the theft system. Roll the window down,(if power windows,turn the key off again)reach thru the window and try to start the car. When it don't start just leave the key on for around 20 minuets or so. If you dont leave it on long enough you will have to go through this waiting period again, but 20 mins. should do the trick. Then turn the key off for about 30 seconds, then start the car. P.S. Dont do anything electrical,like, push the brakes,open the door,mess with the radio. Just reach through the window to turn the key. I own three z24's... 97'97'99...On 2 of them('97 & '99) the theft system light will flash when it is activated and stop flasing after 20 mins. when it is reset, but the 3rd car('97) theft system light will not flash, just be lit and go off after the car is started.
There is not an inertia switch on this car. The fuel system is computer controlled with relays. So you need to stat with checking for codes, check fuses, etc.

Place the key into the ignition. Turn the key to the auxiliary position, without starting the engine. Keep the key in the auxiliary position for 30 seconds. This should reset your antitheft system.
It depends on what you trying to do. If disconnect battery and reconnect it the immobilizer activates automatically. So you will not be able to start the car with key with chip.
My car won't. Start no power to the fuel pump because of the antitheft
i have a 2001 Saturn sl1 and the anti theft system shut down the car. to reset the antitheft system try to start the car. leaving the key in the on possition disconnect the positive battery terminal (red terminal). wait for about ten minutes, with the key still in the on position this whole time, reconnect the terminal on the battery. then get in the car and turn the key to start. this fixed my problem and hopefully it will help you as well.
your car has a passlock antitheft system. there is a resistance value in your key that sends a signal to you cars computer to start the car. i dont believe there is a fuse
Try this, put your key in the drivers door and lock it and unlock it with your key. Not the key fob, the ignition key. Then try it. If the steering wheel is locked, jiggle the wheel slightly as you turn the key-- this should release the ignition-lock and allow you to start the car.
