I have an Alpine alarm on my car, the car is in a million pieces right now, and I am currently waiting on parts to start back in on the engine, so I am wanting to remove my old alpine alarm. I will probably just solder everything back together for now and get another alarm when the car is back together in the future.

Should it be pretty straight forward to uninstall this thing? Any tricks I will come into? Just wanted a heads up incase I was walking into a mess...

BTW, I am removing it because I get BAD parasitic drain from it, and I rarely drive the car, so when I do I have to jump it because it has killed the battery after a few weeks of sitting if I have the alarm on.

1) unplug the brain/sensors

-this helps to avoid shorting issues when getting the wiring removed

2) take out alarm wires

pretty simple, lol. it may help to remove the front drivers seat (if not already removed). getting under the dash is a pain.

edit: forgot to add: most of the wires will be under the steering columb. others will probably be located behind the drivers kickpanel, and in the center consol (depending on the brain/shock sensor location).

good deal. i guess the power windows will work w/ the harness cut out? it;s tied in now to roll up the windows when the alarm is turned on.

they will work perfectly. theres a seperate relay to control the window roll-up, you will find it under the dash (somewhere, lol).
