Thanks Sarge81. I took the drivers door lock out and checked the switch with the meter. It worked intermittenly(sp). This may be why it won't disarm from the drivers side. I also though about getting a aftermarket alarm installed with just the basic alarm armed and disarmed for doors hood and T-Tops and a motion sensor. I dont have power door locks so all I need is a alarm to go off if someone is trying to get in. I need something reliable.

It has happened to me also. In the parking garage shut the door went back in by using the passenger door which I know works and darn if it didn't go off. That's why I may look at a aftermarket system. I had a Viper alarm in my other car and it had al the bells and whistles and worked great. I don't need all the frills just the basic alarm.

When it's up to snuff, the factory system works fine. The system on my '80 will soon be 28 years old and still works like a charm.
