Re: help needed
Model/Year might help, OEM or aftermarket alarm ? Many immobilisers don't stop the car cranking, they just stop it starting

Re: help needed car wont turn over
sounds like the car still thinks the alarm is activated. did you try closing the doors and manually locking then unlocking? andy
