[Shotimes] anti-theft system? stock or not?

sounds like a VIPER alarm system that has the automatic starter cutoff switch
(its an after market system). That little button is supposedly in case you
have to start the car  with your key, but did not have the alarm system turned
off (in case you lost your remote alarm button, or the battery in the alarm
handheld unit went dead on you).

I have had mine on a '93 for 8 years, with no problems.

  No, it was not a factory option.  I would take it to a qualified auto
  alarm shop and have them try and remove it.

  Hey guys, I have another question about Annabelle.

  There's this little button just aft of the auto-lamp sensor that blinks,
  and it's for this ignition cut-off circuit. If it's not blinking, and
  you either leave the keys in the ignition or set the alarm off somehow
  or do something else that I haven't figured out yet, it doesn't let you
  start the car (you can turn to crank, but nothing happens - really scary
  at first lol) until you hit this little button right above the handle
  for the fusebox. I've figured out that if you hit this little button
  near the autolamp sensor until it starts blinking in sets of two, then
  it (the cutoff circuit) seems to be disabled, until you set the alarm
  off.

  Is this thing from the factory? Does anybody else have this in their
  car? I've never seen it, and it's a PITA when I'm dropping it off with
  people. How do I rip this thing out? I don't want it. Thanks for any
  help...

  Jason
