Alarm system help
I just purchased a 1996 Mustang GT yesterday and theres an alarm system on the damn car. The person from whom I bought it from lost the alarm remote and ford remote to unlock and lock the doors and the trunk thingy , anyway. Anytime I have to lock the car I have to push down the locks or use my key because if I use the power locks and then try to open it, without the alarm remote being pushed the alarm will go off. It just happend at o 8:20 this morning.( Hey neighbors!
). I can disconnect the battery to shut it off but theres no odd or wierd looking lines running to the battery like if you had installed an alarm. Im thinking that if the alarm system just runs off of the car battery then it probably doesnt have its own horn it just uses the cars. Now for the help. Where the hell do I start looking and what will it look like???? HELP!!!

RE: Alarm system help
There should be a valet switch that you can turn the key forward and flip the switch and the alarm will shut off.It is usually under the dash look around and see if you can find it.

RE: Alarm system help
So your saying under the steering colum there sould be a switch to turn off the alarm? And I would have to have the key in the iginition to be able to shut it off. I guess thats a temporary thing but I want to rip this **** out of my car!

RE: Alarm system help
Did any 1996 Mustang GT's come with a factory alarm system? I still cannot find the stupid thing! I'm trying to find a wiring diagram so I can atleast know what all im looking at under the dash.
