Answer
Wish I could help Adam,
  But the only notes I have on a 95 Ford Probe
is the US version, and there is no factory fitted alarm.

Are you certain that the system currently in the Probe
is "factory"? If it is not, then I would search
for a valet/overide switch under the dash
and put it into overide. Once done, the alarm
part would not work. just keyless if installed.

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.


Let me know what happens and Merry Christmas!
