    C3 Anti-theft system

    My anti-theft system is not working on my 1980. All of the parts seam to be in place. Does anyone have a suggestion for trouble shooting this system? Are there any fusses or parts that are likely to be bad? Can I buy pass different switches to help in locating where the problem could be? Any help with this issue will be appreciated.

    Full schematic diagrams (not simple wiring diagrams) for your car are contained in GM/Chevy publication ST359-80 which one skilled in automotive electric repair can use NAIL the fault point(s) with. Basically, any of the wired switches (doors, roof panels, Etc.) trigger the system and it would be VERY unusual for all of your switches to fail together! More likely you have a faulty AT switch, AT relay, AT flasher, AT horn or a bad contact at a critical system point (like power to the relay/flasher or at the AT horn).

            I found some good schematic diagrams at the following web site:



            I have 12volts to the AT horn all of the time. I did not know it because the horn is not working. So I think either the relay or the flasher are bad. Does anyone have part numbers for them and a place to get new ones?
