The siren is not working. Based on what you’re saying it sounds like I should try to fix the siren to see if that also fixes my starting problem. Does that make sense? Should I do that before following the instructions pizza guy gave me?
It is not necessary to pursue the siren anti theft line of reasoning any more. If the car did not start with fuse nine removed continue with Pizzaguys troubleshooting advice.
Some people have replaced a non functioning siren and some others have simple disconnected the wiring connector under the cowl and drive without a siren anti theft alarm. It does no harm to have the siren disconnected. However, some time in the future you should replace or disconnect. The internal batteries will continue to leak, but they are not likely to escape the plastic cover in which they are housed or cause any other damage to components under the cowl.
PS The pulse module is located in the fuse box on the side near the fender.
