My t-type has UA6 code for theft deterrent system with starter interupt, but the guy i bought it from did not give me a key fob or some sort of remote switch for the theft deterrent system. (i had no idea to expect this based on lack of knowledge at the time)
Last weekend I gutted the interior so removed the door trim panels so disconnected the power door lock switches. Shut the doors for a little while and then opened driver's door. Theft system went off (flashing lights and horn). First thought: wow, the car came with theft deterrent system, second thought: hmmmm, how do i turn it off? no way to shut if off other than disconnect battery. before i got the battery disconnected it stopped, probably from time out.
Later i tried to start the car but got nothing. i could have run down the battery when gutting the car because interior dome light was on for several hours. but i wonder if the starter interupt is preventing me from starting the car.
Several days later and i still cannot start it - sounds like a dead battery. Before i jump start it i want to know how to reset the theft deterrent system and where do i get a key fob/remote to switch the system on/off?
Thx,
