My 1990 Eagle Talon TSI AWD is in ANTI THEFT mode and I can't figure out how to get it out of this mode. Does anybody have a wiring diagram of how I can get it out of this mode?? Also the cars fuel pump is working but no fuel is gettin into the engine and there is no spark. So those signs tell me that it is in ANTI THEFT mode but I don't know how to get it out of this mode. So please somebody help me!!!!
 
So you say the fuel pump is working but you don't get any gas in the engine. Did you put your hand on the injectors while cranking to feel if they are clicking

To disable the factory alarm you would use the key in the door and unlock the car. if you don't believe me, roll your window down lock then lock your doors for the green security light blinks, next unlock your door from the inside then open it, Next use the key to unlock your doors and the alarm is off
 
You can also try locking it with the lock button if you have power door locks then hitting the unlock button that also takes it out of security mode. :dsm:
 
man those factory alarms are retarded mine would just go off in teh middle of the night for no reason until eventually i just pulled the fuse for it only bad thing about that is the horn no longer works maybe somebody knows how to disconnect the flaky alarm without losing the horn

Well, I have no power to the throttle position sensor or cam shaft angle sensor.

This could easily turn into a 1000 post thread, so order a chiltons manual becuase they are the best and haynes sucks, chiltons has very good schematics, and start at the begining to make sure you have power to the ecu, make sure the MPI relay is good and so forth, another thing would be to use a scanner to try to communicate with the ecu to make sure it is still good and to see that it is reading all the sensors.
 
Well, I finally found out what was wrong with the car. Its was a bad ECU. Me and my friend took his ECU out of his DSM and put it in my car and bam it fired right up. I am just so reliefed because I know what the problem is. Thanks everyone for suggesting your opinions on my situation. Well, I am goin to go find me a ECU. :thumb: :thumb:
 
For an update. I just bought an ECU for my car and it is running really good.. I am just so relieved that I found the solution. Thanks guys for all yalls support and effort to help me out on this situation. :thumb: :thumb:
