My '96 Contour had a Silencer alarm. Basically it's an overpriced kill switch.

I decided to remove it since it was far more likely that the Silencer would crap out and not let me start the car than it was that someone would steal the car.

Well I'm glad that I did because the loser who installed that thing didn't even crimp the butt connectors properly, and when I tugged on the wire it came right out of the connector. If that had happened on it's own, I wouldn't have been able to start the car.

All I have to do to remove it was to find the two wires in the factory harness that it was connected to, disconnect them from the silencer module (one of them disconnected itself as mentioned above), and reconnect them together.

The two wires that it was connected to are the same color and it's obvious that someone cut them in half to connect the silencer module into them.
