HEEELLP!!! My alarm won't turn off or start car

[83graham]

I have a 98 Chevy Malibu and the alarm won't turn off. My remote doesn't respond to lock, trunk, or anything and I can't use the regular key to start the car. Everytime I try to do something the alarm goes off. I looked for a wire harness in the right wall of the trunk, but my car doesn't have anything like that, can anyone help? THank you!

What kind of alarm is it? If factory, try to unlock either front door with the key. If aftermarket, try looking for your valet switch. Then, turn your ignition on and press that button.

It is a clifford G4, an aftermarket alarm. The box is under my steering column. It is big and it has many wires coming off of it, what do I do?

You can goto www.directed.com and goto guides and look up your alarm under Clifford. For now, I'd just unhook the main harness from the alarm brain. That usually does the trick but look up the info to be sure.
