  1. Lynne, as much as we would like to help you, not all car alarms are installed the same way. Different car alarm brands and different setups will call for different wiring. Our advice is to take your car to a qualified alarm installer and ask them to disable your alarm because it does take some wiring experience and alarm installation knowledge. Hope this helps. Good luck on your 2000 Ford Explorer car alarm troubleshooting.

  2. My car keeps not starting because of the ant theft system on my 2000 Ford Explorer can you tell me how to cut out the alarm. I dont have a remote or keypad already switched the keys the car was fien for a week n just started not starting again

  3. Robert, with so many alarm systems out there it would be hard to say whether your car alarm has the option to adjust the sensitivity. Our advice is to take your car to an experienced alarm installer and have them check to see if you can adjust the sensitivity. Hope this helps. Good luck.

  4. i have a 2000 ford explorer xlt with a factory alarm.it has been recently broken into.
    window pried out and entered.is there a way to turn up the sensetivty on the alarm
    it was armed and did not go off:< thank-you for any suggestions besides a new system

  5. Rodney, most remote starter systems are very similar in the way they’re installed and the way they function. Just make sure to choose a remote starter from a reputable company because they will tend to be more reliable over time. Hope this helps. Good luck.

  6. I’m thinking about instaling a remote starter for my explorer for starting in the winter months. Is there one type found to be easier than others?

    Thanks in advance for your time.
