    Stock 89 alarm trouble even after cleaning door sensors and other guides

    Here's an update, mostly me being confused. I am very stupid when it comes to wiring so bear with me. I went under the dash and found (I believe) the theft deterrant ecu. Found the plug with the blue/orange wire and unplugged it. Here's where I'm confused. That plug has 4 pins, and 5 wires...

    Stock 89 alarm trouble even after cleaning door sensors and other guides

    Thanks so much for the very detailed response. From what you explained the alarm ecu will be my first test before checking the door power lock circuits. It's funny the hatch cylinder will disarm the alarm but the immobilizer will still be set ie. I'll unlock hatch, then door, get in like normal...

    Stock 89 alarm trouble even after cleaning door sensors and other guides

    Forgive the essay, I wanted to be as specific as possible with my issue. So I'm having trouble with my 89 factory alarm and hoping I'm forgetting something. I know I can pull the alarm computer and ground the wire but I would like to keep the factory alarm installed. My driver key hole would...

    That could be, maybe dried/burned coolant. It looks like white paint but I also have a white car, also under the hood near the area it feels slightly damp, but it's been raining for the past week. I'll check the coolant levels and see if the "paint" has a smell of coolant.

    I have a question that was referenced in another thread I can't seem to find. After a drive today I found what looks like paint overspray on the front TEMS covers. I recall someone finding it on their radiator hoses ir something similar a while back. Anyone know what could cause this or know the...

    Is the R154 trans made from aluminum or steel/iron? Want to make sure I get the right type of washer with the replacement drain plug.

    Ngk spark wire difference between turbo & n/a

    Darn that's what I figured. Even if they work the length would be an issue, I like it tidy.

    Ngk spark wire difference between turbo & n/a

    Quick question- Is there a difference in the NGK wires for the 7m besides the n/a having a 7th wire for the distributor? (Tx07 and tx08) I have a turbo and accidentally bought some n/a wires and I can't find any spec differences from searching.

    Discontinued 3 piece spoiler gaskets

    So I figure I'll just cut my own out for these. Does anyone know the proper thickness? I recall seeing 3mm but i'm not sure.

    Discontinued 3 piece spoiler gaskets

    Unfortunately im thinking that may be the only option. My spoiler hasn't been removed yet, is the shape of the gaskets relatively easy to make? As long as it seals it works for me!
