Car Alarms: 97 Lincoln, purple wire, secrity


Question
QUESTION: I have read the issues the other person has written in regards to his Lincoln problems and your responses. You informed him on how to permanently disarm the alarm. My question is how to fix it. Is it the green/purple wire shorting out or what? Where would one start to look?

ANSWER: Fixing it would require opening the secrity module.
This I don't do. Try www.chiltonsonline.com ,
and once you locate the security module, then I
suggest bench testing it to determine what's
broken so you can fix it.

Best I can do on this one.

QUESTION: Is it possible that the LCM itself is bad? Can anything be determined by inspecting the LCM? Just a loose connection or ? I am more mechanically inclined, this electronic stuff just gets to me.

Answer
All thinks are possible Tom, but I am not
a mechanic. I can only go by what I do here
when it involves bypassing a factory system
to work in relationship to adding an after market
alarm or remote starter. For more on this,
you'd need the Chiltons here.
