Silas,

David is right on the money with his comment: ". It will probably 
cost more to troubleshoot and understand your alarm then to remove it 
and install a new one."

Over the years we have found it to be far more cost effective to completely remove any previously installed alarm system and all of the added wiring as opposed to trying to resurrect a previously installed system.

My best advice to you if you cannot get the documentation for the 
alarm or the installation would be to carefully dissect the entire 
alarm out of the car. The alarms that you can install today are far 
superior to anything you probably have in the car. It will probably 
cost more to troubleshoot and understand your alarm then to remove it 
and install a new one. After a couple of years you generally cannot 
get support for old alarms and if they didn' 
don't know where to start. Unless you are going to use it as a daily 
driver or you live in a large city you don't even need it anyway. A 
good battery master switch will keep it from getting robbed and the 
car cannot be "slim jimmed" open like a conventional car. The alarm 
was not a factory install but the selling dealer may have done it.
