Lights dont work with alarm
hi. i have been having this problem for awhile now. you know how the auxilary lights are supposed to come on when you "disarm" your car alarm? i blew the "small light" fuse awhile back because i forgot to seal up the orange wire from my radio install and since then, it stopped working. i replaced the "small light" fuse located under the hood and my lights work normally, but they dont blink when i use my alarm. is there another seperate fuse or something on the alarm brain?

BAD NEWS FOR YOU <---
the output circuit of alarms are supposed to blink PARKING lights only. NOT power headlights or foglights. The parking lights are like 5 watts, 12 volt bulbs. Your foglights are probably 55 watts.
When your fuse blew, the parkign light output of your alarm also blew at the same time. ITS NOT MEANT to handle or drive that kind of load, it was never designed that way
