andym85 Posted January 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 so should i take it to like a midas or an audio shop? lol where ever its going its getting towed... i likes me some audio stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 If you have private shops in your area (a good reputable mechanic) I would go to him; due to the fact midas and auto shops tend to charge shit loads for little repairs like that. Honestly as im sure your aware this might not be the only issue I had an o2 sensor go out as well with the relay my mechanic did that really cheap. Hope this helps.

Cuseikan Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Have you tried disconnecting your alarm all together? Try disconnecting the power to the brain, or disconnecting the remote start module. This will help to rule out or confirm that it is indeed your alarm causing the issue. Also search your area for import specialist shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
