Chrysler Repair: Alarm System, chrysler cirrus, 1995 chrysler cirrus


Question
QUESTION: Kevin, Hi

I replaced my computer with an aftermarket one.  

The Chrysler dealer programmed it to the car.  

They told me to drive the car for 100 miles so the computer could "re-learn" itself.

Everytime I turn the key to the on position, the horn will blow one time.  

They want to charge me again to check it out.

Does the computer have to be re-programmed resolve the problem; or, can it be easily disarmed by a fuse, etc.

Thank you,
B Barbour



ANSWER: this is not a program issue.  yes they will charge to to look at it  the first time was only to program it like u asked  u did not ask them to look at anything but program the computer right?

QUESTION: Kevin, Hi

I didn't have the horn blowing issue before I installed the new computer.  

Since it's not a programmig issue, is there something I can do to stop the problem without taking it back to the dealer.

Thanks,

QUESTION: Kevin, Hi

It's a 1995 Chrysler Cirrus.  

If it's a bad computer, I suppose the only thing I can do is to replace it.  

Can the alarm system be diarmed without shutting off the fuel pump?

Answer
why did u replace the PCM any way?  and no it cant be disabled  
here is the next thing  sense u got a used one  and u dont know if that pcm had an alarm in it   u could have vary well created this issue with the used pcm   and now u might need to get a PCM and BCM at the same time  both brand new.  once one of the 2 computers see an alarm system its burnt into the computer.
