Does anyone know how to disconnect a factory alarm in the 1994 ES300?

Why would you want to do that?
How about disconnecting your aftermarket add-ons?

I disconnected all the add ons I had, although I dont see how they would cause these problems. I am back to complete stock car, sigh.

So until I can get to the dealer to take a look at it, I need to disconnect my alarm so I can get some much needed sleep.

Theft deterrent ECU receives power from several sources:Headlight relay, tailight relay, starter relay, 15ACig/radio fuse, 15AECU-ig fuse, Horn relay, 20Adome fuse, 30A power fuse.
Center airbag sensor assembly gets power from:
7.5A IGN fuse, 15ACig/radio fuse.
The one thing they have in common is the 15A CIG/RADIO fuse, somebody probably tried to tap into this fuse and bent the female end of the fuse holder. Inspect the circuit thoroughly.
Have you tried disconnecting the negative battery terminal?

I inspected all the fuses, nothing has been tied to any of them.

But I did bring it to the dealer, and they were of the opinion of...surprise...that the aftermarket radio stuff Tweeter put in was most probably the cause.

So Tues I am scheduled for them to fully remove all the amps and wiring from my car. I am very very bummed, as the stereo sounded killer, but what can I do?

Sigh
