The price I quoted in previuos post was for the lock cylinder with wiring


I also offer just the lock cylinder for $58.88 plus shipping

 

If the steering wheel doesn't unlock you will also have to resolve that before you can drive. Maybe you can just turn the shaft that turns the switch with pliers after you have the switch out. Of course you have to be sure it's not going to lock again on you. Also it's going to look like you're trying to steal the car, if anyone around there cares.

It should not be a problem turning the car off, just turn the switch back to off. If that doesn't work, stop the engine by disconnecting the spark plug wires, then disconnect the battery. Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is running.

 

Remote start does NOT unlock the steering wheel.

To drive home, you need to find a wiring diagram for your car, get into that drivers side kick panel, and find your brake light wire, and disconnect the wire comming out of the brain box of your remote start system that connects to your + brake light wire. That should stop the car from shutting off when the brake is applied.

But some of the remote start systems have an auto-shutoff feature that is timed, and/or connected to the tach wire so if the engine RPM gets to high it will shut off as well.

Where did you buy it? and did you install yourself?

 

to get it home SIMPLE... FIRST FIND OUT HOW LONG THE the autostart feature will run before shuting off automaticaly.... SECOND stop watch set to that time afew mins SHORTER than the run time.....
THIRD simply cut the brake light switch wire going to the alarm!

NOW THIS IS "VERY IMPORTANT"!!!!!!!! BEFORE THE REMOTE STARTER RUN TIME ENDS YOU MUST PARK THE CAR.... kill the remote start and then restart it with the remote!!!! OTHERWISE YOU RISK LOOSING CONTROL OF THE CAR WHEN THE MOTOR SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALY!!!!!!
just be sure the steering is all freed up with the key in run position and everything still works properly!

get it home and then reconect the brake light wire to the alarm. and fix the problem.....

 

Thanks for the advice, i finnally got it home last night, i could find the wire running to the break after hours of searching, i was irritated then i just pulled the fuse for the tail lights and that worked! i had to have my buddy follow me home so i wouldnt get rear ended or a ticket....... thanks guys, im gonna fix it this weekend

 

good to hear.... good luck with the fix.... and ya that brake wire is VERY HARD TO REACH..... i never thought about pulling the fuse. good thinking.....
