98 Camry that you were worked on and now you are not able to find the remote Now every time you open the door the alarm goes off and the car will not crank?

IF -repeat- IF this Camry has a security ignition and has a "chipped" ignition key (i.e.- big thick plastic on the handle), then placing the key in the ignition should over-ride the disabling function. If you have no such key (i.e.- it is a replacement without the transponder chip in the handle) you will need to take the VIN number to either a well equipped locksmith or a Totota dealer (the dealer will charge you WAY more). If the Camry was not equipped with the security ignition in the first place, then the dealer should be able to tell you how to get around it. Good luck.

Car alarm keeps going off on a Ford Mondeo 2002 tdci how can you sort it out?

Could the anti-theft system on a 1999 Chevy Camaro make the car not start?

yes it could.... that's the whole point.... someone steels your car and unless they can shut the alarm off correctly the car won't start...

Yes . You may need to look at the ignition switch (key). There is a wire that can break (wraps around the cylinder) and in the early stages will cause the car not to start. Common with the VATS system. This wiring is close to your air bag deployment and the proper sequence for disarming it must be followed. also a steering wheel puller will be needed to remove the steering parts that will be in the way.

:

easy enough to check. pull a spark plug and lean it against the exhaust manifold. if there is no spark and the engine has no problem turning over, vats system would be the second thing i would check. push the stem in on your schreader valve and make sure you are getting fuel pressure.

^^^^ first thing to check is to take a dry rag or your shirt and clean the little VATS chip built into your ignition key... if its dirty or wet it wont start your car...if the chip is old and worn it wont start your car.

How do you disable the car alarm on an Acura legend?

"pull out the fuse" This is a great answer if you don't want to be able to start up the car again. When the integrated alarm system is going off it will not allow you to start your car or unlock the doors. A quick Google search will tell you that many Acura Legend 91-93 models owners have had this same problem, among many others. Honda usually makes a good car but this is not one of them. Best advise is to not own one at all.

To answer this question, thou I cannot take credit for it, is to locate a gold color box under you drivers side dashboard, you'll have to take off the bottom half of the dashboard to get to it. Once you locate the the gold colored box you should see to wire harnesses attached to it, take both off. On the bigger of the two harnesses you'll find a black wire with a yellow stripe on it. You need to ground this wire and the car will function normally.

Also remember that anytime you're dealing with an electrical system of a car be sure to disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent any accidental shocks.

Hope this helps :)
