I tried the resistor method w/o great success (so far). I measured the resistance w/ my multimeter set at 2000 and I ended up w/ reading of 1815. I went to radio shack and the closest resistor they had was a 2.2K or 2200. I wired it up as mentioned above. The car starts but the theft light is on. I suspect the resistor is too far above the 1815 level and I have the equivalent right now of just cutting the yellow wire. What do I do if there is no resistor close to my resistance reading?

I took pictures as I did this to post them but can't figure out how to get them on w/ my posting. Not my day I guess.
