Alarm syst is going nut's !

Hello everybody
I work all weekend on the vette ( 1980 ) trying to get the alarm syst working,
and it is now working but in reverse order let me explain...
when I unlock the driver door the systeme start , when I lock the door the systeme stop beeping and do not stop until I look the door.
I check every switch they are all ok !!!!!!!!!!!!! (door,hood,t-top)
let me now if you have a solution.

Normand, In this same column there is a thread called ( Project Make Factory Anti-Theft Alarm Work Again). In there Red Hot Vettes posted a similiar problem with his 1980 vette. The locking pins in his T-tops were not connecting and caused a open circuit which made his alarm sound all the time. This could possibly be your problem, check his post out to get more details.

But all the switch are working event the t-top but after reading the column it may be in the driving door relay back to work!!!!

sounds like the wires on the door lock are reversed. Try switching the wires.

Thank you Tom for the info
How do you now if the wires are ok the colors of the wires or the switch contacts ????

Norm,
if the switch is working backwards, i would try and switch the wires around on the switch. one should be yellow and the other one should be lt blue just about all of your lt blue is for your alarm system. if you want to check your switch then you are going to have to take a DMM and check it across the terminals. What i would do is just take your yellow wire and the lt blue wire and switch them on the switch and then try your alarm system. it should work.
