    Take a look at the steering column, especially around the ignition lock assembly. You’ll see quick splice connector and non matching wiring. Trace those and you’ll find the control module.

    Cut the non marching wiring out and solder the color matching factory wiring and that should solve your issue

    I always take those alarms out, no one listen to the alarm anyway. The only real work you have to do to remove it is to take the starter interrupt relay out of the system. If you take the knee kick panel off you will see the harness that goes to the alarm box and the relay. Sometimes they cable tie the box under the sterring column sometimes they hide behind the Integration relay and sometime they hide it in the left kick panel.
