My 2004 mercury is having problems that might relate to the box in that car. The alarm randomly goes off whenever it wants to for no reason. Do you know if it is the alarm system itself or maybe the battery in the remote went bad or something but I have to unhook the battery after every use and it is really getting annoying. Any thoughts?

I would say that it is the alarm box for sure. I don't think the battery in your remote would have gone bad that soon. I would say it's a faulty alarm system, just like this van had. Ugh! Alarm Systems!

Now does he accept loosing all the security ?

[DanielJaegerFilms]

Yes, he said he wanted to remove it anyway. The locks still work, but the theft siren is disabled. Besides, who would steal a 1994 vehicle like that? :)

[diymania]

ppl steal everything these days.

[DanielJaegerFilms]

True.

yeah i feel sorry for that girl, poor kid, i would hate to have to drive a Jelly Bean around, and from the convenient engine location, it looks fun to work on!, i always think of the 1996 movie "Car Pool" when i see a Previa lol lol

That's why I've never liked automatic (power) door locks. I prefer to have some manual control when I want to get in and out of the car.

I'm thinking the same is happening with my Astro van. I had a K5 Blazer and a Sedan deville that this happened in. Only a buddy of mine took care of it for me. Yup, it's either this or a bad ignition switch itself. Now that I have some time, I'm gonna get on that. Thanks Brother.

Bunch of dumb asses that shit causes fires do it right.... I feel bad for her when that thing goes up in flames... Shity mechanic..

see now the problem with toyota isnt age. it really is that the person who previously owned did do the regular maintenance for the car aka they didnt take care of it. my dad, he has a 1991 and its in great condition except for the excessive shaking. he know how to take care of his car. this, is just the previous owner's fault for the previa's condition.

Well Do you still have the Previa?? If you do than what happened to it??

Hi! this video was so helpful. I have a 96 Toyota Camry and I think its the same problem. The lights come on, the horn works, windows, but the alarm keeps sounding and the car won't start. Is the black box in a Camry located in the same place as in your video? I would appreciate any help! Thanks and keep up the good work!

DO NOT JUMP THE YELLOW WIRE TO OTHERS IN THE HARNESS! Yellow is a connection to the ignition switched on. If that is jumped to other wires you will short other things out. There is a Orange wire off of the alarm the gives a ground when armed which is connected to a starter disable relay usually close to the ignition switch. If you just cut the orange wire the van would have started...
