Your video is amazingly thorough, and you make it look so simple! We have a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan with a Triad alarm system that has given us nothing but grief since 2005 when we bought it....now we cant even turn on the van, my husband doesn't think it is the car alarm he thinks it the steering column is frozen. But the alarm system has been crazier than usual and remains red, no beeping action or anything....On my next day off if I can convince him we will attempt your video. Thanks again!

Really good to analyze the channels about caravan.

i spent two whole days trying to figure out how to do this . i was told it couldn't be done, but you have showed me otherwise and i can't thank-you enough. i have the same exact van and only wish it wasn't dark out so i can tell you how i made out.

I follow your video guide and I successfully remove the Python alarm from my 1998 Toyota Camry. I am not a car savvy guy, but with your clear guidance, I am able to get rid of this useless and annoying alarm that always causes my battery and starting problem.

Thank you so much for replying to my comment, my husband manage to disarm it. He had to disconnect to alarm from the wires, but thank you very much for your assistance!!

Dana, If this s he factory alarm, then there are two ways to disarm it. one is with the remote attached to your keychain that unlocks the doors. simply hit unlock and it will stop. But it sounds like you dont have the remote with you. so what you want to do is stick your key in the drivers door lock. turn it to the left or right..that will disarm the alarm

That's exactly right these systems cause more trouble for owners than they save in stolen cars.

plus why put alarm on a van who would steal one??

Thanks, I will be doing this tomorrow on a 96 Altima. It sat for awhile and the battery died, tripping the alarm, and it will not reset. I wasted half the day today trying to reset the dam thing, even buying a new battery. I'd also like to verify that Makita as the best screw gun I've ever owned in thirty years of using screw guns to build and instal cabinetry.

Thanks for posting. I have one of these and am working up to ripping it out.

Good job, Paul. Shows why alarms are such a pain and not work putting in at all. After having the same problems with alarms, I went with Ravelco. No false alarms, works EVERY time and has a lifetime guarantee. 5 years and counting. Their testimonials spoke volumes. Keep up the great work helping people solve these irritating problems and remove the useless junk!

Jon, your welcome. Im glad to help. this is why my channel is on youtube.. I just need to find some time to make new videos :( .. Please subscribe :) thanks!

Alberto. From what I see, thats the factory alarm going off. If you do not have the remote for this car put the key in the drivers door and turn it to the left of the right. this will disarm the factory alarm system

Do the door need to be locked for St or unlocked?

I’ve removed the alarm, but now have to reconnect the starter wire. It has the aftermarket long wire that connected to the alarm. The original starter wire is a bit short. Would it be ok to keep a section of the aftermarket wire and have 2 butt connectors connecting it to the starter wire?

Very helpful! Thank you!

hey dude! really thanks! man! god bless you! got rid of it seco larm e100f on a 95 chevy blazer

I watched this to do a little reverse install of an older Clifford into an older voyager anyway it cleared a few things up 4me but on your final check you didn't check your rear hatch to see if it automatically worked correctly. I noticed because the person that took out an alarm from my voyager b4 I got the car, didn't attach the rear hatch wires or something and I have no clue what he did.

Thanks so much--I'm going to try mine to remove the troublesome security system!

Good thing make mechanical channels on caravan

same issue i think..previous owner had wires going from the alarm/horn directly to the battery terminal. after a while i noticed it would start but would sound weak (battery) brought it to auto store for free test. starter good, alternator good, battery good, notice my terminals were coorded so i replaced them and it started up with the lights brighter and everything good. now randomly i go to turn the key and i get no start at all. all power item come on in the dash etc. turn key and no noise or crank...this happened once or twice before and i kept turning the key and it did start. starts when its -20 but not a 15 degrees. the current alarm positve cable has a clamp type thing on it (like a mini jumpercable) i have that electric taped to avoid shorts...help lol

Jimmy, Im not totally sure what you mean?. when you do what I did, the rear hatch has nothing to do with it unless there so some kind of sensor in the door itself. what year is your voyager?. and whats not working?. In the 1996 to 2000 vans came with rear defrost rear wash and wiper. in the interior you had the option of no lights on the liftgate, 1 flood light or the duel lights. if any of that isnt working The first place you should check is your HVAC controls. your wiper controls are on there

@MrRoyalflush69 Hey just remember that all you really need to do is remove what was installed, and any wires that get separated during this removal put back in their spots..But remember this video was done on a dodge caravan.. I never took apart a expedition..good luck let me know how it turns out

Sir, I fucking love you. My car has been giving me so much shit with the shit-ass alarm system that was installed before I bought my car. Thank you so much.

Thats great to hear.This is what my channel here for.. the Do it yourself er ... thksor watching and subscribe to my channel for new videos.. thanks again for watching

what type of alarm did you have?

sorry for the delayed reply. what year van is this?. it may not be your ecm. but your BCM ( body control Module) . in the 2001 to 2007 caravans they are inbedded in the BCM. also, do you have a aftermarket alarm?. what color is your ignition key?. have you had a new key made for the car?? do you see a red light flashing in the instrument cluster by the speedometer??

by doing that u were removing the anti-theft feature, right? my jeep has that light on and im not getting power to anything really rather than the engine will turn over. no start though

I'm having the same problem. Mine is a 97 Dodge Ram b2500 conversion van. The battery keeps going dead and when reconnected the alarm starts sounding off. The deactivation button inside is no longer deactivating the alarm and I cant start the van. Can that alarm be removed?

I think my alarm is factory installed, will I be able to follow the same directions? I take it this helps with the anti-theft device issue? Please forgive my ignorance and terminology.

Hi there, got a question here. My battery flated couple of days ago, yesterday when I jump started it, the alarm was suddently on. I have only one key (not the remote) and I unlock the door, jump into the car, turn the car key to ignition and siren goes on and i couldnt even start my car. HELP!

SE... when i unlock the doors i have to hold the key...then open the door...otherwise it just locks back up again. when it set off the lights flicker off & on...

sounds like its not disarming. do u have the remote still?.. if not put the key in the drivers door with the door closed. Lock the door with the key. then unlock it again.. These cars have something called a central locking system. a system that has sensors on each door lock cylinder and you can unlock and lock all doors from that spot.. following what I said above manually disarms the factory alarm. If this doesnt work you might have a few other problems.. try that and let me know

I know this is an old video but, like he said (in so many words), not all alarms are created equal. I'd like to add, too, that not all '98 to 2000 models got a Viper alarm. So, in case you're Dodge Caravan is like mine (a 1999 model I named "Frankenvan" a looong time ago bc nothing on this van has been normal and I'm the only owner it's ever known), you might have a K-9 5 Classic car alarm with no siren (some have the siren; mine does not). For mine, I unplugged the wires from the brain and removed the brain. The van starts now and can be driven (it shifts, goes backwards and forwards, stops, and the power windows work). *HOWEVER* -- and that is a MAJOR *HOWEVER*, the following IMPORTANT parts DO *NOT* work: the ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, ALL of the LIGHTS, including BLINKERS and BRAKE LIGHTS, the HORN, and although relatively minor, the power locks (that list might not be exhaustive; there may be other stuff not working that I didn't think to test). And I don't have those last two clusters of wires that he plugged back in. ALL of the wires for that stuff need to be located along with the relays, but my patience runs short in 100+ degree heat and extreme humidity. I have the wiring diagrams for both the Caravan (in my Chilton's manual) and the K-9 alarm (found those online). There are a lot of things I don't mind working on in/on a vehicle, but the electrical stuff ain't one of 'em. So as I type, the space under the steering wheel looks like my van puked a ton of wires. Hope that helps anyone else who has an anomaly of a Chrysler product like my Frankenvan.

Hola funcionará si lo desconecto y ya????

going out right now to dissconnect/reconnect battery. turn the key left/right in the drivers side door, and beat the dashboard.

Hey I have a Chrysler town and country 1997 and won't turn on and keeps lighting up the anti theft alarm light. Any Ideas??? Would really appreciate it.

its not a stupid question. The original Interior Color of my van was Grey..I got a junk van with a nice interior in it that was tan.. and I thought a red and tan Color Combo Was nice..

Used these instructions on a 1991 Voyager LWB. Removed a Clifford alarm (same as Avital and Viper) and aftermarket daytime running lights (this was a US import into Canada but now that it's over 15 years old it no longer meets CMVSS) which fucked up the electrical, disabled some fans allowiong overheating, and draining the battery (needs a jump from my bmw every time i wanted to drive it until now)

i have 96 D.C & sometimes when i unlock the doors it sets off the alarm and it wont start, but then i lock the doors and reopen the doors and it will be ok, and there is no horn.

Hey what problems was it giving u?? I have a 96 grand caravan and it will start up not then turn right off and the top lights come on like the oil and the alarm set and ABS but the bottom ones don't like the mileage etc... this happened be4 Nd I just messed with the locks then it started up now to u do this sounds like a alarm issue??

Honey Love hey sorry for the delayed reply. these always happen on the 96' LE or ES models with the Central locking system. the electronic sensor thats located on the locking mechanisms go bad or break apart. causing them to be super sensitive or not work at all. I had a customer with a 96 that when you went to unlock the doors if you moved the key just a pinch fromt he unlock position they would lock and arm the car. I usually stay away from these vans when buying them for myself that have this lock system. your car originally came with a remote on the keychain. so you still have it?

it sounds like your have a bad central locking cylinder in one of the doors. is this a 1996 LE ?

I have a problem everytime I turn my van on it cut off in 15 sec. I just put my ECM in my car yeasterday all my light work now but my car won't stay on. My mechanic said that my anti-theft system is cut it off. Is there a way to turn the anti-theft system in my van. Please help 905speedgta

makita is great..Alittle on the expensive side but great. I agree with you on that. There should be a kill switch somewhere, you have to hold it while you turn the ignition key to on postion. or something to that effect. good luck with your UN-INSTALLATION..subscribe to my channel and thanks for watching!

what about the back up battery for the alarm system? Do you disconnect that first, leave it, what do you do with it? I too have an old viper on my dodge but it has a back up battery.

Not to sound completely stupid,but wasn't the original interior gray????

How do you know which wire is wich?

insulation is that wire covering. this is a bw 3000 alarm, and it is the same one installed on my '95 4runner. yuk!!

great job

so your saying i can just cut my alarm out. i can just leave cut wires?

is the alarm set up same as a 99 chrysler town and country?

I just looked at your comment and all I saw was " I just took a shit yesterday " lmfao!...mis read that due to glancing at the screen wrong lol.I hope it went well for you and Like the guy said a few comments above you.. It really is a step by step dismantlement. its best to locate the brain of the alarm, look up its model number and get detailed info on the wires and where it goes.. subscribe to my channel! and thanks for watching

before you take the alarm out jump your starter relay.. these vans are known for blowing out starter relays. also,, i dont know what your husband means about a frozen seering column..If you cannot turn the ignition switch to ( on ) than there is something wrong with your lock cylinder. take the garbage alarm out,

that may be a factory alarm.. what beeps the horn or the alarm?

great, glad to hear

Does this also apply to alarms connected to the horn?

have you ever worked on a TRIAD Zero contact security system? hate it and want it gone.

Do you have a aaftermarket alarm or a factory alarm?

My 96 toyota camry wont stop beeping even with car off, have to take out battery. Cant find my killswitch,

@MrRoyalflush69 Both lol.. I connected them and pushed up

Actually I figured out how to get it disengaged Leave the key in the on position when hooking up the battery and the alarm disengaged. Still not going to trust it with the battery hooked up but at least I can start it and drive.

I have a 1999 Dodge grand caravan. When I turn the key on the alarm goes off and the head lights and tail lights blink. It stops sometimes when you press the alarm button on the fob. This is frustrating when it happens. I push the inside door lock button to unlock doors because of fear that it will go into the alarm mode. Any idea?

I'm the same user as +shiftoptionk1976 and the avital alarm i mentioned was poorly installed. No starter kill wired in and a lot of other thigs too. The wires were TWISTED together and taped. Makes it easy. Also the DRL install was a crappy relay job. Pulled the relay, didnt do anything else; the relay wiring doesnt affect anything. The headlights work perfectly.

Some of these caravans are actually programmed in the BCM for DRL. when I installed the Auto lamp feature in my 2003 caravan anytime I had the feature on (A) to run automaticly the lights would constantly be on, till i installed the Gentex mirror with the light sensor. they they worked fine. what year caravan is this?

905speedgta Mine is a 1991 and used a DRL module but since it's a US model it didn't come with it and does not presently have it. Van was imported in 1999 and needed DRL until 2007 but after 2007 it can remove it so i did after i bought it. Again i'm the same guy as shiftoptionk1976 except that's my Apple channel and this is my main random-stuff channel. The "DRL" was a simple relaying of the headlights that i just tore out the relay and left the wiring in. I am aware of the BCM-programmed DRL, especially the "Audi Switchback" type that appears from 2005? on many models. Mine, on the other hand, the wires go into a harness leading to the ECU… i'll have to explore. In the meantime i have no DRLs and my headlights and everyrhing else works.

@JonyIveDesignsThings

905speedgta I was born in China and currently American, but i study in Canada. Importing a 15+ year old car from anywhere simply involves bringing the car in, have it inspected for contaminants, translate all labels if in a foreign language to English (or French in the provinces that speak it), replace the glass and tires if not DOT approved, aim the headlights, and you're good to go. Bringing in a US car can go two ways: 15+ year old just bring it in, pay for all the stuff, go through an inspection for imperfections and you're good to go. However, under 15 year old US cars need to be brought to a dealer to have DRL installed or programed (many cars come with it already but some don't), the odometer reprogramed to KM or an odometer label (if it lacks one) indicating miles unless it can be switched back and forth, safety labels replaced with Canadian English/French labels and installation of child seat attachment if there isn't any. Basically 15+ year old cars don't fall under the CMVSS while under 15 do. In the US the 15 is replaced with a 25 which is why the only kinds of Nissan GTR you see are either the newest kind, built for the US, or 1989 R32 Skylines, which are due to the import thing. In canada we see the famous R34 skylines.

No the factory alarm is installed into the BCM ( body control module) Memory..if you want to disengage the factory alarm adn do not have the remote the car came with simply put yur key in the door lock and turn it to unlock the door...the caravans of the 1996-2000 3rd generation have something called a " Central Locking system" when equpipped with a factory alarm.. and this will disarm the vehicle so you can run it
