Car Alarms: How to disable the Viper Alarm System on my 93 Town Car, viper alarm system, dash area


Question
The Viper Alarm system on my 93 Town Car keeps arming unexpectedly.  I don't use the system, but lately it arms, and then I can't start the car.  I have to fiddle with the old remote to disarm the system and sometimes it takes 15 minutes.  Clearly the system is old and not working correctly.  Since I don't use it (at least on purpose), I'd like to just disable it or remove it.  I can not find any material at the Viper website on how to do this.  Please help!  Thank you.

Answer
Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area in most cases,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area comes on solid.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)

This should be valet. This overides
the starter kill relay in the alarm harness,
and returns the car back to disarmed mode.

The only thing that will work now on your system,
is the keyless entry if installed.

Just Repeat these steps to rearm your system.

That should do it.
If you still want to remove it at this point,
take it to your neighborhood installer
for this, or buy the wiring chart for
the 93 Town car, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until it's safely removed.

Let me know what happens.
