- How to remove an aftermarket car alarm or remote car starter from ANY car!
The vehicle in this video is a 1st Generation Honda CR-V
If you have purchased a used vehicle and you are here, you have probably encountered an issue with previously installed electronics on your new to you vehicle. Sometimes car alarms can have a mind of their own. You may ask your self "why does my car alarm keep going off", or you may be stranded because of your car alarm. I have decided to make a video showing you how to successfully remove such electronic components with ease and straight forward directions. If you watch the video and have further questions, leave them in the comments and I'd be happy to help you out.

I find it semi-astounding to discover a car guy who is capable of a coherent, articulate explanation for anything. This video is FABULOUS!
Well...thank you. I appreciate you watching and giving your feedback.
@@DCAutoEnhancement They insulted the group you belong to and therefore you, and complimented you at the same time lol
Awesome to not have some annoying music and site intro too!
No b.s. chit chat....Just how to fix your problems. Well done.
Hell yea brother, nice walk through. This helped me diagnose a no crank no start. Previous owner had awful aftermarket alarm with a starter kill relay. The wiring was awful, so I traced it and found the problem. This was after I replaced the starter lol. Oh well happy wife happy life.
That's awesome! Glad you made her happy! Thanks for the feedback
I too replaced the starter first got my hopes up when to start it... 🤦🏻♀️ and ended up here THANKFULLY
I jus t read your comment , got a kick out of it being your wife’s car,
I’m here trying learn all I can ti troubleshoot why all of the sudden my wife remote start , just
Stop working , happy wife happy life
@acypooder1 check for a toggle switch some near the kick panel or under the dash. A lot of times these are installed but not really discussed work the customer and they can sometimes accidentally get kicked. If you find it, flip the switch and try the remote start.
Thankyou David for walking me through the steps to remove the EVS II security plus from my 1998 Jeep Cherokee. You are a savior and wonderful at explaining how to do the task at hand. Thankyou again. Soo very glad I came across your CZcams video. I couldn't have done it myself!! Thankyou David, you are Awesome!!!!
You are welcome! I'm glad you were able to get that unit removed.
Thank you! Just got an '02 Lancer giving us fits with random alarms on an aftermarket auto alarm remote start. I think your step by step gave me enough to go off of. Not afraid to take on the project now. New subscriber.
Thank you! I appreciate your feedback. If you run into any issues, I've been known to help as much as I can over email. Good luck to you and thanks for subscribing.
You made this as easy as it could be! Thank you Sir
Thank you! These kinds of jobs can get kinda rough. I'm glad it was helpful and I appreciate your feedback. Thanks for watching the video!
thank you for this video! It gave me the confidence to rip out the piece of crap aftermarket alarm system from my car. No more annoying horn beeps!
Let me know if you have any questions
Very thorough explanation and video. Thank you
Thank you! I hope this video was helpful for you
Your Videos are well put together and very detailed, thank you for sharing your wisdom and teaching all of us. I have learned a lot.
Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you were able to get your project taken care of.
Thank you so much for the fine tuned specifics. I have watched about ten videos on how to remove the alarm system but yours is the best. I am happy to have found your video. You explain things clearly and precisely, especially concerning the parts to be removed.
Thank you for watching and giving your feedback!
This really helped me out! I've been having an issue with my car not cranking at all while I'm out, but then will suddenly let me crank after a while. I'm hoping it was the aftermarket alarm system with the starter kill relay that was causing it.
Great video. This helped me very much. Had purchased a 2012 Rav4 that had an aftermarket alarm installed. Sadly the only thing I had to "disable" it was a valet button but still wasn't sure on brand and all that. I finally tackled tracing the wiring for that to the main hub and so forth. Thankfully whoever installed it did it professionally and all I had to do was unplug the wires from the jumps and that was it. Done and done. Thank you again for this video and the helpful explanations of all that you pointed out.
I'm glad the video was helpful

SUPPER CUTE WORK
Thanks I'm gonna try tomorrow a 04 Cadillac truck wish me luck but I feel alote better with your reassurance thanks
Let me know if you have questions.
So I can't find that starter kill relay but found the alarm box under the dash the box has the color diagram of all the wires coming off of it weird please help we do a video chat I'll pay you if anything bad happens I sign off just need help thanks bud
@@crabbyyup8560 can you send a picture of it to info@dcautoenhancement.com sometimes the relay is built into the alarm
Pretty good video. I'm getting sleepy now.
Good time for a nap
I have a 2004 Chevy blazer and I just wanted to know how to wire back my wire harness back to normal
I’m gonna try it. My 93 corvette has an aftermarket alarm system. I believe it’s contributing to a crank no start condition
Normally with an alarm, you would have a no crank no start
My 2010 tundra remote start viper alarm system finally took a dump. I couldn’t start my truck…I saw a fuse sticking out of a cable coming from a big black box that said Viper on it, I pulled out the fuse…..My truck starts now. If I do some sort of work with wires I use zip tie colors that don’t normally come on the car. Pink, green etc… so I remember it’s my work.
Good tip. Thanks for watching
Nice.
How do you i.d. the chip key simulator ? The older remote starts had an actual key in the harness. The newer ones are harder to find.
Subscribed and 👍👍👍
It sounds like your question is geared toward installing a new remote start or installing a new bypass on an existing remote start, is that correct? Thanks for the sub and 👍
Great video!!! I think mine might be helping drain the battery of my 05 civic during our lovely cold snaps. I don't have a heated garage, is there any way to just disconnect it until I can do a proper removal?
Usually there is a red wire that has a fuse on it. If it is an alarm only, then you will have a small red wire with a fuse, usually a red ten amp fuse. If you have a remote start you will usually have two large red wires with green 30 amp fuse. You will pull those fuses if you can find them. Let me know if that helps or if you have more questions.
Hello, Very nice video, I am investigating an intermittent dead battery. Could the aftermarket alarm play a role in this. 04 crv.
Yes, that can be a cause. Look up how to find a parasitic draw. That will help you determine if it is the alarm or something else. You will need to know how to use a digital multi meter. Or you can just remove the aftermarket alarm and see if that takes care of the problem. What I would do first though, is take the vehicle to a place like AutoZone and have the battery tested.
Got 09 smart passion fortwo with all keys lost. By Removing the security be also removing the chip key system ?? 🤔
The chip system is built into the car. If you have an aftermarket alarm it won't affect the chip. I hope that answers your question
I have a 91 Caddy brougham . It has a very old alarm installed. Battery went dead several times now i think alarm wont allow car to start. I tried kill switch buttons nothing. If i cut that starter kill relay wired you should and connect wires without relay would that work to start the car again? Or i have to remove whole alarm system like you did?
You are correct, if you find a relay attached to either a purple wire or a yellow wire, cut the relay out and re attach the original wire to get it to start. Removing the alarm completely may be desired because it can cause lights to flash and possibly a horn or siren to sound
@@DCAutoEnhancement thanks i will try to cut that relay first then get it o start. Then take the rest of that spaghetti wiring apart😂😂. And its a ton or it
Great video with tons of good information. But I have a question you might be able to help out on a 2009 nissan rogue remote start with immobilizer how do I put the immobilizer back to factory right now it starts engine with key in ignition only so I want to remove it because I can't even unlock the car doors with the remotes. I don't know why the remotes stop working and car alarm sets off. I was able to pull a fuse of the aftermarket remote start but now my remotes don't open or lock doors but by pulling that fuse I can start car with key, at least I'm not stuck. Any suggestions as far as removing and getting the controls to work on original immo of car. Oh and this was a nissan installation first when the car was bought back in 2009. Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback. If you can get some information off of the equipment that was installed I can look into how it is integrated into your car. Usually it isn't too difficult to put back to original but sometimes you do have to cut factory wires and wire the bypass in-line on factory wires. But, if you can, get me some info and I'll see what I can do for you.
@@DCAutoEnhancement thank you so much. As soon as I go to the car I'll see if I can get some sort of name of it. Thanks again.
I have a problem .I got a jeep liberty that came with an avital remote start alarm and the seller took the fuses out from it to disable it...since he lost the fob...I got a new one and a shop reprogrammed it. Then one day the alarm wouldn't activate and my dash showed door ajar...I took the fuses out and I noticed a burning smell.coming from under the dash...I also saw some alarm wires exposed without tape close to metal...Today the shop scanner read all 4 doors are ajar...as the dash cluster does not tell which door is open..You think the wires shorted out from the alarm...and mess up the BCM...also the fuel gauge is erratic reading.Thanks!
In my opinion, I would remove the alarm to verify that nothing is wrong with the vehicle itself. Then if you want the alarm, I would have a shop install a new one.
Do you have to cut and remove the connecters when removing the car alarm or can u leave just the connectors without taping the factory wires up ,and just leave the connecters atached to them?
Can you email me a picture of it? dcautodiy@gmail.com
I need only insure the ignition key is in the off position to do all this? No need to disconnect the battery? Thanks
It would be best to disconnect the battery to be safe.
i found a similar setup in my 96 4runner... i wished id never found it cause after i messed with it .. well it wont start anymore... i think mine cuts power to the fuel pump instead of the starter and might also mess with EFI... but its going to be coming out this weekend cause i really miss driving that vehicle... im hopeful you might still be available if i have some questions... when i found it i thought it was just a kill switch
When you get into it, comment here again and I'll get you my email address
Great video. Having a little trouble with my 04 pilot. I disconnected all the wires from underneath the dash. Now it won't start. There is another box that is Saturday into my OBD2 and I haven't removed it. Could that be what's not letting the car start. I bought a new harness to go on the back of the key and tumbler to plug into the main fuse box. So that's all new. Just wondering if there is something I should be looking for. Also I cannot seem to locate the starter relay so I'm not sure if that might be the issue. Because I am not getting power to the starter and I checked the starter signal fuse and it's good. Any recommendations
If you replaced that harness from the switch to the fuse box, you should have eliminated any aftermarket devices that would inhibit the starter from functioning.
@@DCAutoEnhancement yeah I definitely did switch the harness completely it's brand new. Now I guess I check the fuses that go to the ignition switch the starter signal fuse and the relay for the starter. That's all I know what todo next TY
Thank. You so. much have lent a lot I have a question if you don't mind
I will do whatever I can to help
help me on how to uninstall a Euro lock type alarm system on a land cruiser
Send me information like pictures and a manual if you can to info@dcautoenhancement.com
Im removing a viper system from an integra and fixed the starter signal wire, but i am not getting the fuel pump to prime. Opened the fuel line to find air so Crank no start. i ripped out every wire (it seems like all these 90s installs were just poorly done). I dont see anything messing with the brown fuel pump relay… any ideas? Btw this video was one of the most helpful ive seen thank you!
What year is the Integra?
@@DCAutoEnhancement i think its 94, it has those old fat fuses
@@lobaman123 I was just wondering if it my have had an immobilizer on it but it doesn't. As far as the alarm is concerned, once you reconnect the starter wire and it cranks, you are good. Did you buy the car not starting? It could just be a bad fuel pump or a fuel pump relay if the fuse is good. Thanks for the feedback on the video, btw.
@@DCAutoEnhancement thank you for your insight, this car has been sitting since 2013. I thought it was bad gas but since im getting air in the engine bay fuel line i was concerned if wiring had messed with the fuel pump.no prime noises at all. I will check fuses and possibly replace the relay or pump
Will this work on 1999 Chevy Astro with aftermarket auto start??
@@FredOBoonk yes, they are fundamentally the same, you will just have more wires.
Can a aftermarket alarm system cause electronic issues with the bcm or vehicle stalling problems?
Sorry my response isn't going to be helpful... Anything is possible especially when it comes to electronics. As far as probability, it's not likely that the alarm is the issue if everything was installed properly.
I have a '98 Dodge Durango that when I bought wouldn't start it had an aftermarket remote start installed with no security system but I guess it still had a sequence it had to follow to start after replacing everything to do with starting including fuel pump wires plugs voltage regulator everything from the starter everything crankshaft sensor I had found it I was missing a wire on the crankshaft sensor and I also may have had an issue with the with the relay switch but got it started now it after a few months it's not starting again I don't know I've lost the the remote for the remote start the fob and I'm thinking that maybe that's the reason I can't start it since everything else has been replaced having to remove it I'm just not sure that I am electronically inclined you so but going to do it anyway soon would this actually in fact keep my vehicle from starting not having a remote not being able to do the sequence with it even though it's not a security system just a remote start
Most times a remote start doesn't have a starter kill relay but it is possible. Look for a relay that is connected to a heavy gauge wire that has been cut and a relay installed where the wire is cut. If you have that, simply unhook those wires from the relay and connect the wire back together.
I went through the same thing with my civic and crv, the civic was the worse though
i was very surprised to see someone else with the same unbranded/unmarked alarm system in their car lol. unfortunately for me after installing my new steering column in my 88 firebird gta i’m still having a no crank no start issue after uninstalling this system and bypassing the vats system
How did you bypass the vats system
I have n problems with starting my car switch on the car the alarm go off
I took the fuses out on an avital alarm...is that good enough
It might be. As long as you aren't having issues with the connections of the wires that should be fine.
Hey my car remotes stopped working and the alarm is not going on there a fuse that should be looking for in the alarm system?
Usually there is a red wire with a red fuse if it is just an alarm no remote start.
Thanks I will look and hopefully it's just a fuse.
I have a 2000 dodge ram 2500 diesal. I noticed it had a factory alarm in it. Took me about a week to un install it they have a cluster of relays taped together I'm afraid to take them out cause it mite cause the truck not to start,. Wat do I do?
If it was dealer installed it should have been a t harness the last one I helped remove, there is a connection at the ignition switch under the column and then a connection behind the knee bolster. If it is an aftermarket one there will be a relay that has two wires coming out of it going to a single factory wire which would be the starter wire. If that's the case, you can just cut the two wires and attach them. If you need more guidance, let me know and I can get you some contact info
Thanks for this video. Do you have an Email handy? I have a 2002 Toyota 4runner 2wd and someone installed a IR-S Code Alram, it has like a little tiny switch to start the car. I would love to un-install it but not sure if I cut the wires if it will ever start again

I have a viper remote start and it started freaking out and trying to start the car on its own. Going to try and remove it but don't want to mess anything up. Don't want to have to get it towed cause ya know being poor and all
I understand. It may be an easy job to disable it. If you find the main brain, look for two red wires with green fused on it and just pull the fuses and see if that disables it
Excuse me is there any way you can help me out with my car alarm removal bro
Sure
Does the car still start after you reconnect the wires after taking off the kill switch
Yes. You have to make sure the starter wire is no longer running through the relay.
Do you have to reprogram to fob to work with the original door locks?
Not usually, these aftermarket alarms usually do not interfere with original wiring. However some cars have different wire types for their door locks requiring relays that are installed at a break in the wire or the wiring goes through the alarm. In that case, it is a matter of putting each of the wires back together. What kind of vehicle do you have? Year, make, and model?
@@DCAutoEnhancement 2003 Acura MDX, I just bought and didn't come the original FOBs only have the after market ones, prestige (I think.) very similar set up to the one you show in the video. just want to make sure if I take it all apart I can still use the fobs to unlock the doors.
Excellent instruction BTW. I learned a lot from watching, Thank you..
@@iamketoman2270 if you remove the aftermarket alarm or keyless entry like what was shown in the video, your fobs will not work. Are you having issues that you believe are linked to the installation of your aftermarket system?
@@iamketoman2270 btw, thanks for watching and asking your question.
Any idea if these after market alarms can cause fuel pump problems?
Aftermarket alarms or remote starts should not affect the fuel pump in any way. The only way they could potentially interact is with a remote start. When the ignition is energized, the fuel pump primes. I don't see an aftermarket unit actually causing an issue. I hope this helps. Thank you for watching
Folks use those crimp connectors on trailer wire setups.They fail all the time, you are right sodder and heat shrink your connections.
Thanks for watching and adding your experiences.
well fitted alarm is not visible , shoddy works are always easy to spot
Hi, great video, I have a older Chevy pick up I want to remove the after market alarm from. The truck came with a factory alarm from Chevy, will unplugging the after market one return to factory setting alarm ?
It should. When adding an aftermarket alarm, almost always they factory alarm still functions as it did from the factory.
@@DCAutoEnhancement thanks, I will give it a try.
@@DCAutoEnhancement man, so I pulled the old aftermarket alarm system, and I was able to put everything back together to oem, but when I’m trying the program the key fob for the original alarm it does not program. I checked all my fuses and relays but no solution. Any tips or ideas on what you think it can be ?
@@efrainalvarez9541 usually a factory alarm is integrated in such a way you don't know it is there. Maybe yours was a dealer installed option. How are you trying to program the remote and how did you determine which one to purchase?
@@DCAutoEnhancement so I have an oem replacement key fob, and I’m trying to program it with the “hold unlock, switch on, switch off, on, off. “ Method but I’m not having any success
I paid someone to install a car alarm with a kill switch etc. When I turn on my car I saw that they put a really thick gauge wire which gets extremely hot(touching it burns me), I've cut it and the horn would not stop until I reconnected it. I have a short on my dash and stereo when I turn my turn signals on and I can't seem to find the culprit. When the car is off there is a power draw on multimeter -12.37 and I pulled all fuses to no change
If possible, I would take it back to the person that did the original installation to see what they can do. Obviously that wire shouldn't get hot so there seems to be an issue.
@@DCAutoEnhancement it seems like that wire was put there for that same reason, the person who installed it is in another country. Any other options?
@@mgbretro if the wire gets that hot, it is either shorting to ground or the Resistance on that wire is high
Can you email some pictures to info@dcautodiy.com
@@DCAutoEnhancement sent!
Great video could you have just left the red connectors there instead of removing them and applying electrical tape
Yes, if you know you want to replace the alarm or remote start, it can be helpful to leave them so you can use them in the future. You also shouldn't need to tape them up. I knew that I wasn't going to be reinstalling anything on this vehicle but if I did, I would be soldering my connections.
I bought a 2005 Camry last month and the aftermarket alarm left me stranded at the dump. Unfortunately, I wasn't smart enough to remove the box and then try to start.
I used a butt joint to reconnect the wire to the starter and wrapped the smaller wires with electrical tape after removing t-joints.
I am trying to figure out what I missed or did wrong!
Did that work to get your car started?
@@DCAutoEnhancement No, my car doesn't start. Do you think you can have a physical connection with a butt joint without an electrical one?
@@drippingwax the wire you should have reconnected would have been either black/white or black/yellow. As long as both wires were in the metal of the butt connector, it would have made the connection. What made you believe the alarm was the issue?
@@DCAutoEnhancement The alarm kept going off and I couldn't start the car.
Apparently I blew fuse #17 under the hood, the 30-amp AM2 Starting system, "IGN" and "IG2" fuses. I swapped that with another fuse and she's alive! :)
My ac/heat doest not turn on. I have no AC or Heat. I checked all the fuses,relays , blower motor and blower resistor,all is fine. Change the clime control module still nothing. This happens after the shop changed the starter. I do have an aftermarket compustar starter. Do you that has anything to do with my problem? Thanks
The only think that I can think of is if they somehow cut the heater/accessory wire. Does the heat and air work when you remote start the vehicle?
@@DCAutoEnhancement no the heat/ac doesn't turn on at all. The lights on the climate control are ON but the the on/off button doesn't turn ON neither the heat or AC. Thank you for your quick answer
@@hnmpp What is your vehicle?
@@DCAutoEnhancement 2015 Honda crosstour 4wd
@@hnmpp I will look into your problem. Did this problem happen after the installation of the remote start?
Hi, I replaced the battery in my key fob couple days ago. It started getting sketchy. Sometimes it wld work to unlock the car & sometimes it wouldn’t. Anyway, replaced it.
I’ve tried several times in several different ways through several different videos to reprogram my key fob. Fail!
Now I just need to figure out how to shut my car alarm off so that when I put my key in the door to unlock my vehicle, the ALARM doesn’t go off EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!?!
Please help a sister out. Anyone?
Unfortunately, you will most likely want to disconnect the alarm all together. You will want to find the main fuse for the alarm, usually found in under the dash. If you have just an alarm, you will be looking for a red 10 amp fuse on a small red wire. If you have a remote start, you will be looking for two green 30 amp fuses on two large red wires. In some cases, you will find all three fuses that need removed. I hope this helps.
So you can just leave the t-taps in there?
If they are T-taps, you can leave them but I prefer to remove them and place electrical tape on the wire where the T-taps cut into the insulation. If the connectors are scotch locks, remove them for sure. If you don't know the difference you can Google them and compare the images.
How do you start your car when you lost your aftermarket key fob
You will have to bypass the starter kill relay. If I remember right, it should de-energize when you disconnect power to the alarm.
Where are you located ?
Indiana
2006 Ford F-150 viper… can it disrupt fuel pump?
Yes, if it has tripped the factory immobilizer system.
Is it a remote start or just an alarm?
@@DCAutoEnhancement remote start as well. I disable the box and re wire wires from switch but still doesn’t start. Also I notice some wires run to the driver floor that connects harness to the rear of vehicle. Can that be the one connected to a fuel pump?
@@karristun1968 if those wires connect to the remote start, they could be to your door locks or brake wire not nothing from the remote start directly connects to a fuel pump wire.
@@DCAutoEnhancement if it tripped the factory immobilizer what can I did to fix?
I bought a van that has one half uninstalled and now no crank no start
Trace the starter wire, usually there is a starter kill relay that interrupts the starter wire. Depending on what is disconnected, the relay could still be energized or the relay could be bad not allowing power to flow through it. If you need help figuring out which wire is the starter wire, let me know the year make and model.
So what’s the switch for
It's a valet switch for disarming an alarm without the remote
This doesn't help. I don't know what I'm cutting or taking out everything looks the same.
Can you tell me what vehicle you are working on and possibly the model number of the equipment you are trying to take out?

@@DCAutoEnhancement 2004 Honda accord and it does turn over
@@DavidSmith-lg6lj if it turns over, it isn't related to the car alarm. The car alarm (if equipped) interrupts the starter wire, not allowing the car to crank.
@@DCAutoEnhancement it all started when I was checking the fuses and after that it wouldn't start anymore
Is this not a free help for car thieves?
I guess that depends on your mindset. I have had numerous customers over the years ask to have alarms removed and one time I did a house call for a customer whos car would not start and it turned out to be a faulty starter kill relay. Thanks for watching.
I have n problems with starting my car switch on the car the alarm go off
If you have an aftermarket alarm, it probably isn't disarmed, causing the alarm to go off. Do you have the remote, did it work?
