I apprecaite all the repiles to my previous post and I am gald this
seems to have been of some benefit to the 'Maxima Community'.
Here is a brief recap and an update on this situaiton;
The OEM alarm or Anti-Theft system on my 1996 Maxima seems to be going
off for no reason. The horn starts blowing, the lights flash.
I had originally stated that this seems to happen the same time every
day. That is no longer the case. It seems that was just a coincidence
for the first two days that it happened.
In my original post I also neglected to include that the car had just
been painted nad had some body work done.
A few days after the body work was done I started having problems with
the power window and door lock on the passenger side front door.
I took the car back to the body shop that did the work and the guy
took off the interior door panel and found where shop had left the
plug kind of hanging that connects the power door lock and window
controls.
This leads me to believe they my have also left some other 'bad
connections'. I talked to the owner of the body shop and he says he
will help me find the bad connection. I hope that what ne means by
that is that we will remove each of the door panels and check each of
the connectoins at each of the points that could trigger the alarm
system.
I have a diagram that someone sent me showing the layout of the anti-
theft system and where all these points or connections are.
New concerns, new questions;
A couple nights ago, the starter would not engage upon turning the
key. In some of the reading I have done on Maxima Anti-Theft problems
I have seen this.
In the event that this problem does not magically disappear by itself
I am open to any feedback, advice, suggestions, Etc.
QUESTOIN...
When the alarm goes off on these Maximas, is there anywhere that
information is kept on which trigger-point set the alarm off?
I am in hopes that it is stored in the 'Brain' or the 'Central
Computer' of the Anti-theft system.
If it is not stored, is there any device that I can 'plug-in' to the
Anti-theft system that will record this info?
Unfortunately, I think this question is a long-shot, but I had to ask
it. Any good news on this one certainly apprecaited.
