defective antitheft device on my 87 Mercury Cougar

5

Asked by Bigbluefrog Mar 20, 2012 at 08:35 PM about the 1987 Mercury Cougar

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

This was a custom ordered part, mach 9, with a pin that needs to be inserted to start the car, without it
the engine kills.  The pin is loose or defective, so I removed the unit and now the car is stuck at my
inlaws house.

I haven't been able to find any parts for a Mach 9 security device to replace the pin, or help removing
the unit completely.  
Also the driver's window crashed into the door today, but that is the second thing to fix.  Seems doable.

Please any info or site to order parts or  to remove the original antitheft device would be helpful

okay my brother is an engineer and he managed to rewire and said it was not originally on the car but an added on so simple fix.
