when i tried to start engine,alarm set lights up,
breakdown guy had dashboard apart,no luck.
started car crossing terminal under the hood.
is this an expensive fix.
this is a car that had extensive modifications,for wheelchair user.when the car was new chrysler could not make the alarm work,blaming the company who converted the car.no starting problems until 3months ago,then again today.

thanks[img:960cb0e266]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/579046_farnborough_airshow_2010_001_1.jpg[/img:960cb0e266]

i would like to know how to de-activate alarm,if its not to complicated.battery was replaced 3months ago,
breakdown guy disconnected and re-connected battery terminal.also tried door lock with the key.
i have a powered sliding door for wheelchair access.
when the key is turned and held,in the drivers door,it opens and closes sliding door,is that correct,or short circuit.because of disability i cannot be as hands on as i would like.i have to get the chrysler garage to repair the problem,with your help im making sure i dont get ripped off.

holding the key is a way to open up the sliding door. it is a feature for alot of vehicles for disabled people. most of the time it consists of turning the key to the on position in ignition pushing a button under the dash and pushing the unlock button on the key fob.

i can
