Car Alarms: 1992 Lincoln Towncar AntiTheft, lincoln towncar, dash area

Question
My 1992 Lincoln Towncar has activated the antitheft system and I cannot get it to disengage.  When I open any door the parking lights flash for about 60 seconds and the ignition just seems to shut off all lights when you attempt to start the car.  I've tried what the handbook says about closing all the doors and putting the key in the ignition to reset but that doesn't work.  Any other suggestions?

Answer
Ok, try this.
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.)

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.

Let me know what happens.
