Keke, as much as we would like to help you, not all car alarms are installed the same way. Different brands and different setups will call for different wiring. Our advice is to take your car to a qualified alarm installer and ask them how to disarm the alarm because it does take some wiring knowledge and experience to know what to do. Hope this helps. Good luck on your 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe alarm troubleshooting.
I have a Chevy Tahoe 1996 that I bought that already had an alarm system on it. I wasnt giving a key pad and the other night my alarm went off and now we can not get the truck to crank up. I have tried reseting it and also removing the box that goes with the alarm. My truck still would not crank up. The question is, what should I do next?
