How do I RIP it out... nice and neat? Can anyone give a step by step?

 

Someone's done it... I'm sure..

 

First things first. Do you have an S4 or S5?

With the S4 alarm system, the unit is under the passenger side floor board I believe. The S5 alarm system has the unit built into the CPU near the driver's side kick panel.

 

S5... now what?

 

One question.

WHY are you pulling it out? I've found it can be a alarm notifying if my aftermarket alarm has been black box defeated. Thus, keeping it is a good thing.

 

Thing is the idiot b4 me messed up the side of the car. No frame damage. Just messed up the fender and door. So he went to the Junk yard and traded it out for S4 doors believing there's no difftence. So both doors don't have the same options as the rest of the car and he never thought about hooking things back up again so he scraped the wires. So it goes off on me if I close EVERYTHING and there's no way to turn it off unless I unhook the battery. Besides I wanna lighten the car a lil more.

 

Alright, for a temporary solution, unplug the horn once it goes off. Find it by unplugging one at a time. There is a third horn only present with factory alarm. That is its only job. The other two are just regular horns.

As far as lightening is concerned, IMHO it's not worth the hassle (as per post above) for the very minor weight difference.

 

Maybe I will unplug the horn but I'm not the type for temporary solutions, y'know? I didn't really mean about lightening the car to take a corner but rather discard useless stuff from it. Thanx for the advice but I'd still like to know how to tear it all out.

 

The problem is that it is built into the CPU. If you unplug one of the connectors, you lose other functions as well. These two pictures may help.

 

Damn... that would mean I'd have to mess w/ the CPU like hell... One mess up can destroy it.

 

See picture...

 

As much as Iran enriching Uranium...? yes

 

what's the box by the speaker on the passenger side, underneath the glovebox? I thought that was the alarm system on an s4.... guess i was wrong.
