How do you disable 97 stock alarm system, car will not start
just curious if anyone knows because my alarm keeps going off and i can start my car at all thanks is there a way to disable the system completely

Did 94s have alarms? Perhaps dealer installed or aftermarket? If you mean the VATS system, you can find info on my website.

VATS =
I hate it... always gives me the 'security' light and makes me wait 3 minutes to start my car. I'm disabling every aspect of the system this winter. It makes it harder for me to start my car than it would for a potential car theif.

thank you for the quick reply as always shoebox, i am talking about VATS on a 97 camaro (its my friends) if he would buy a new factory keypad from GM will that take care of his issues? (he lost his factory keypad) if not is there a way around this system? thank you again here is what he did so far...
1. used two different keys then waited 3 minutes for the alarm to turn off but... the security light kept flashing and we were not able to start the vehicle

I don't think the fob is going to have anything to do with the security light staying on. The mosts common problem is it not reading the key pellet.

Re: How do you disable 97 stock alarm system, car will not start
I am having a no start issue on a 1997 camaro Rs the guy I bought the car from said that one day and acted like it was running out of gas then died. so he replaced the fuel pump fuel filter and fuel lines the car with them not start. he sold me the car for $200. As he could not figure out the no start issue. Since buying the car I have replaced the cold packs plugs wires ignition control module lock and key cylinder with key from GM starter CKS the sensor next to the CKS, oil pump sending unit sensor reset the cpu back to factory settings and i am not getting any fire to coil packs, to the cks or the fuel injectors. And not for sure where else to look. I think its my faults system due to when i put my horn fuse in the horn continues to go off. Where do i need to look at and please provide location for what you sugest as im dumb when it comes to these camaro rs models.

To start, at any time has the PCM been scanned for codes?
When you turn the key to "start" does the starter engage and crank the engine? When you do this, is the "SECURITY" light flash? Does it stay on solid?

At any time has the computer been scanned for codes? Have you checked the fuel pressure?
How did you "reset the pcu (PCM) back to factory settings"? Do you mean you pulled the "PCM BAT" fuse for 30 seconds?
