Replaced the Dash on my Supra a couple of weeks ago. Recently put it back together having labelled every plug, nut and bolt. All was fine before but now the car wont start!!! :(

 

I think its the alarm. Prior to the instal the battery went (would this cause a problem) flat and now when the battery is connected (having been rechaged) all the electrics work, lights, horn etc.. however the alrm is dead and thus I can't start the car. I have plugged everything in as it was having labelled every connection. :search:

 

The alarm is a Clifford 950 with Intellistart. I have contacted the only approved dealer (According to the clifford website) remotely near me and they don't provide a mobile service.

 

I have tried a few other places but the mention of Clifford and Supra sends them into cardiac failure. Most say at best bring it down so we can have a look. I would love to however the car wont start due to the immobiliser etc... :blink:

 

Anyone any bright ideas? I have checked and then rechecked all the connections, but it looks like there is no power getting to the alarm, or its not earthing properly, but I can't be sure as I'm no auto electrician!!!

 

The car is currently at my brothers in Bordon, Hants (He is a sparky and wont touch Clifford alarms, nor will any of his 2 other fitter firends). Anyone know a fitter or can help in any other way (Dispair, Dispair, Dispair)

Well Matt knows where Bordon is anyway, but it is a long way from him. Shame he was out at my Supra fitting the same alarm just a couple of weeks ago.

 

Knowing Matt he might be able to offer some online advice though!

 

I don't have the cable otherwise I'd say we could at least plug it in and see what it was saying it was up to :(

 

p.s did you manage to speak to your bro about the Volvo?
