Greetings,
As you may, or may not, know, I just had my late wife's 1997 Civic EX titled back to me. The radio is kind of messing up, and I was wondering if the 1997 Civic fell in the series that killed the factory alarm upon removal of the factory radio? Then again, if I remember correctly, the EX had a separate control module for the alarm, but it has been too long....

I think you're right. The alarm module piggy-backed on the radio and the connections to your interior light are routed through the stereo. Your stereo is shown in diagrams at

Thanks. Come to think of it, I wouldn't be losing much by losing the factory alarm anyhow because I have to push the unlock button about 6 or
7 times while standing right next to the car before it will unlock with the spare remote. The original remote for the alarm system no longer functions. I already tried new batteries, and the spare remote just doesn't cut it for the car. I attempted to program it to the vehicle too, and that didn't work. I am going to go out on a limb and assume that because the factory radio is messing up, the alarm is probably FUBAR with the radio.Have something to add? Share your thoughts — no account required.
