Question
i read an article in here about the guy with the 95 GT but i had already done what was told. and im pretty sure my alarm system is after market.

i have an 98 3000GT and the theft deterrent system started to work out of no where the other day. i walked into a gas station (not locking my car) i walk out and my car is locked, okay, well i unlock it get in and go to start it but nothing except hearing an alarm chirp three times. well i continued to try to start it once more and the alarm goes off, i open the hood and yank the wires off the alarm horn. still wont start. so i know that if this happens if you rotate the key in the door a few times that it should shut off and you can start the vehicle agian. this does not work, so i try looking at all the fuses and relays and whatnot, i find a fuse that is connected to a black box, suspected to be the security alarm cpu. now it starts, i shut my door and hear a relay going nuts just clicking away like crazy, so i unplug that and it still runs, but the turn signals are not working, BUT i know this relay has nothing to do with them. so the next i repeat the process to go to work on my way to work i was driving down the highway crusing doing about 65 and my check engine light comes on and i notised my car is very slum on power. so once i was down at work i go home and the light is still on but my car has better performance. i go home and unplug the battery to hope that maybe it could clear a code or clear the theft deterant system. well it cleared to code but also it didnt save any stored codes either. the theft system still pervails. ugh. so my problem is this:

everytime i have to start my car i have to replace all the fuses and relays start it and disconnect them and my blinkers wont work. what do i do about it now?

Answer
That's hard to say what the problem could
be without first hand inspection. If you
would, restate this question in my installers
forum at www.installsupport.com and see if
my resident technicians there can assist
with this project.

More eyes on this may shake
an idea loose.

They can go into a more detailed assistance
you might need on this project.

Good luck there.
