not sure if this belongs here as im new to the 5.0 sections but here goes:

i just bought an `89 GT
the car came with a "factory installed" alarm
the guy i bought it from said that if the alarm
remote ever runs out of batteries and i cant start the car to simply
hit a small switch under the fuse panel while depressing the clutch
and starting the car.

so i did this and cant get the car to start.

i switched on the emergency flashers and they didnt come on;
the door switches wouldnt work either.

this leads me to conclude that the car's battery is dead

any ideas????



MODS: if this needs to be moved please PM
