SOURCE: Anti theft activated-now car won't start and radio

to turn off the theft system, all you have to do is put the key in the door lock and lock and unlock the door, this shuts down the anti theft system,now this has nothing to do with the radio, the only way the radio would ask for the code is if it was removed or the battery unhooked,anyway try the unlocking of the door even try the passenger door, hope this helps.

SOURCE: 1997 cadillac deville delagance - anti theft device

I've got a 97 deville d'elegance that has issues similar to these. Last year the red anti-theft light came on and the car wouldn't start-took it to the dealership and they replaced the PCM? (the main brain for the system) for $900...the guy told us the wiring was so corroded he didn't want to mess with it much. Today the message started flashing on the dash that says "anti-theft problem/ car may not restart" but it still turned over in the driveway a couple times so I am hoping I can reset it. The wiring system is jacked and will probably need to replace the wiring harness completely. Doubt its worth it. Not a secure feeling with 2 babies in the back seat in the middle of winter....

SOURCE: anti theft system -can't start car

The price is forbidding our small income expenses. . .BUT if you can
determine my explanation below that your bypass is compatible with ours?
We, I, my wife and baby, are confined in the seculed place in Hayfork
mountains. . .I am seeking for main stand-alone switcher that turns off
against fuel pump, against inner dome light, against rear trunk lid light,
against auto transmission and against four door lock actuators . . .I
successfully made it run with bypass starter relay and hot wired down to
gas tank pump and it runs well but "service immediately" light stays on..
and auto transmission starts on 3 rd gear that stalls engine, it wont start
on second gear. . .when arrived home on uphill road it wont go up so I
drove it on reverse and finally parked here. . .
I KNOW it is a few steps ahead where stand-alone switcher are. I am going
to follow the dome light's wire down to the place where relay-switchers
are. . or follow gas pump wire that I assume can be very hard way to do. .
but before I go ahead that if you can tell me where those switchers for
A/T, fuel pump,inner lights, doors are located?? in 1998 SL1 ? that would
really save my searching . . . Your tips without having to purchase your
bypassing kit would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, Donald

Back lighting is out on the radio in my 2002 Montana. Are these fixable?

Yes they are, your going to have to take it to a electronic repair shop. You can try tapping the screen to see if the screen will come back to life, the cause is the solder will break after a few years due to heat from the the current. Read your manuel to de active your anti-theft on the radio. Once you disconnect it, the anti theft will activate and when you reinstall the radio, it will ask for a radio code to activate it . Good luck and hope this helps. keep me posted, be glad to help.
