Chrysler 5th Ave 95 Alarm Disabling Start

Ooops its a 92 not a 95.

Hi...

Each of the front door key slots has an electrical switch mounted to the back of the switch itself... in your case if unlocking neither door will turn the alarm off then both will have broken and fallen off.

It's probably easier, cheaper, and safer to replace one or both.

Or, if you have a remote, use it to unlock the doors.

The alarm seems to be ignoring the key unlocking either front door. Also there is no remote for this, can I remove the switches or cross them to make the car think its tunred off? Thanks for your help. Mark

Ken, Thanks for your help you pointed me in the right direction I simpley cut off the sensor at the end of the passenger door lock and it disabled the alarm and allowed my car to start.. THANKSSS!!!!

Hmmm...... at 3:36pm you posted "can I remove the switches or cross them" and at 3:52pm you had the door panels off, cut and crossed the wires and came back here to post your findings all in 16 minutes? Tell me more!!

If you say so.

As I said take the door panel off without knowing what is in it or what wires to cut. cut and splice and post your findings?? think about it Dirty.

Well we had the panel 1/2 pryed off already I had read something on this forum about arm/disarm switches but didn't know where they where located or what they looked like. One Ken said at the ends of the locks, we pulled one off. Basicaly it uses the lock when turned to disable or break the circut. So I tried 1st trying to start the car with the circut opened and then I cut it off and crossed wires. To my serprise after 2 days of pulling fuses and trying all the simple things I could do it worked. The alarm was a holly nightmare I see why they stopped using this old turn key alarm without remotes. maxpower I hope this gives you a better idea of how I fixed it or anyone else that has this same problem.

Thanks, Mark A. Leatherman

Glen, To be honest I only needed the top of the panel bent back enough to reach in at pull the arm/disarm switch off. The plastic screew kept scratching the crap out of my back of my forarm. Also my wife is the one that had removed the bottom half of the door enough to slide it over the door lock to get to the panel hole. Once I got the car the start I raced inside to thank Ken for pointing me in the right direction. As my wife put the door back on, probley like your boss does to you.. hehe.

Well, that plus the fact that car alarms are pretty useless against most thieves, who merely break the window and reach in and grab what they want, then run away. I would also guess that the 5th Avenue was never high on the professional car thieves list even when new.
