Car Alarms: my car alarm, toyota celica, dash area

Question
I have a 1990 toyota celica st, the alarm system that i have in is an code alarm/DM1500. The problem i have is trying to disconnect it, because i believe it is affecting my car from starting. My boyfriend has disconnected it already, but my car still does not start. Can you please help me.

Answer
Hmmm....


Ok, try this. To start, plug in the alarm and
set it off. Ten put the key in the ignition,
and turn forward all the way just before cranking.
Then within 5 seconds, locate, press and hold in the
valet/overide button, found under the
dash area, (push button, spring loaded)
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes on solid,
and the siren chirps once.

(Your valet switch might be the toggle
(on/off) type. in this case, key on,
flip switch in opposite direction,
then turn the key off.
Some Code alarms use the LED as the
valet override as well.)

This should reset the alarm, and reset
the grounded relay on the starter wire,
allowing you to start the engine.

At this point, the only thing working would
be the keyless entry from the alarm,
if it came equipped that way.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to usable armed mode.
You may get 2 chirps, confirming it,
and the lights may flash twice as well.

That should do it.
If you want to remove it at this point,
take it to your neighborhood installer
for this, or buy the wiring chart
(Go to: www.vehiclewires.com)
for the vehicle, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until safely removed.

If it does not work out this way,
you will have to replace the system
with one you know how to operate
and what to expect. Don't want to
get stuck in another bad situation.

Let me know what happens.
