Did it Start? Mine Won't so I'll be grabbing a Chilton's manual. They hacked up my Brother in Laws 20 year old truck. They installed it where he bought it. Never buy an after market alarm system that hacks into your wiring. Gonna be a nightmare I think. a

Hey thanks for this video! My wife’s car with a remote start has the ignition turning over then off again repeatedly. After finding the box under the wheel and disconnecting the wires from it, it was good to go.

Z, Thank you for this video. I bought a '97 Honda Accord with an aftermarket remote start installed. I believe that the wires are JUST spiced in. Cross your fingers for me! I;m diving into the removal job tomorrow.

Glad it helped fingers and toes crossed i hate these after market alarms it just really messes with the wiring in a car
My 2003 F250 has a anti-theft device and sometimes it will not do anything when I unlock it and turn the key (i suspect it is anti-theft device?). No noise, no sounds, no clicks, no start. Just blank silence. Even silence trying to jump my truck from another truck. I think it has a loose wire (sometimes). I replaced both batteries and snugged up the power on the starter to make sure it was not loose. It still happened. I poked around under the fuse box but did not find a after market device like this. Your video gives me the confidence to poke around more.

I wished that you didn’t fast forward bc I can see how you traced the wires. But is there anyway that I can slow that down and watch it so I can call the wires with you?

I got a 89 Honda civic hatchback with a viper alarm. I couldn't plug the battery in without the alarm going off to I cut the horn off. Now I'm stuck with a bunch of wires under my steering wheel. Should I just shove it all back up there or attempt to take the whole thing out

does it turn over at all ? some remote starters splice into the the wire that goes to the starter so maybe try taking power right to the starter
My car won't crank after cutting out remote start alarm....all wires are connected...everything works... Except cranking on 2009 Acura MDX. Avital alarm/ remote start

The wire that goes to the relay for your starter they cut it and go though the remote starter. You have to make sure i reconect that wire. It should be cut into and spliced or even cut in half and re rutted

This looks way more easier than my current problem. My dam car has a mess of wires all over the place. I don’t know what the previous owner was thinking that installed it. Smh so frustrating. I’m going to leave everything connected as it was cause i don’t want to mess anything up but dam it looks like a mess 😂

What happens if you try to take the alarm system off or cut wires while the battery is connected? Because I did that and I'm still trying to figure out to take this shit off.

i think derbing will never really stop the car will get more and more technology in them but we will find a way , people thought the same thing when all the car went fuel injected and they thought the same thing when all the 70s cars started drying up, i have seen some very new cars derbyed, in the uk they have ran a 2016 bmw v10 thins year , even that mazda i had was a 2007 and i was able to move alot of wiring and it still went good . people will swap motors and find the good cars out there . people will always derby the real question is what car is be the next tough car crown vic, lumina, camrys , ???
My car keeps locking the doors automatically after starting it. I’ll start the car with the key itself and leave my car. A few seconds later it will lock my doors. You can’t get in unless you have a second key or your window is down. My card would just run and I wouldn’t have a way to get into it. I didn’t know it had Remote start for a while until I noticed the extra remote on my second key. I’m going to take it off. I’m tired of being locked out my car xD.
