No vatts in early c-4`s.
It probably has a factory installed anti theft system.
This happened when I first got the car. Had to have it towed
to the shop because all I knew was that it wouldn`t start. I
tried the key in the door but still nothing.
My mechanis did something?
I think he mentioned something about a "starter interlock"
I don`t believe he replaced anything.
The car starts fine now but that "security light" stays on.
Wouldn`t think that the module is not bad because it works
fine now except for that darn light :-)
I --- don`t --- know :-)
I will take your advice and check the fuse and the switches.

Thanks for the info Charlie.
Could you please tell me what I need NOT do?
So I may guard against getting stranded.
What do I need to do if it happens?
Will the key in the door deactivate the system that has just
stranded me?
Sorry, for so many questions but I really need to know.
I have no manual explain this.
Thanks

ok, thanks

Was that on an 84?
The key and the key ignition is nothing special.
How would that make a difference?
I am a retired owner of a 23+ year Locksmith business,
This makes me question how.
