Question
Hi,  I have an aftermarket alarm system in my 96 Sebring Convertible.  I was going to change some settings undre the dash & the car killed.   When you turn the key on nothing lights up or anything.  The only way I can start the car is by turning the key on & using the remote start to start the car.  Of course when I step on the brake it kills the car.   HELP  :)   thanks much...

Answer
Gotcha, let's put it into valet/service mode,
and try to reset the alarm to default mode.

Look under the dash area for a button or, a toggle
switch. When you locate it, turn on the ignition
key, press and hold in the button (little
spring loaded micro button, red or black possibly)
until the alarm chirps 1 time. This should over ride
the system, and only the keyless entry part,
if installed, would still be operating.
The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid.

At this point. the alarm would have reset.
If this had a starter kill relay installed,
it would now be opened, and the engine would
turn over when tried.

You would repeat these steps to go back to
user mode to see if this was corrected.

Let me know if it works for yours.
