I have to take the negative cable off every time I park, because the lights stay on and I have to pull the horn fuse. It does nothing but blow every time I go someplace. It is a pain.

Hello,

It sounds like the system needs to be rebooted. You can do this by disconnect the battery, then turn the ignition key on, then reconnect the battery. This guide can help as well:

I did everything you said, it still won't reset. The lights stay on, the horn honks steady (had to pull fuse). Please help, thanks.

Hello,

What lights come on? Can you be a little more specific please? Is it the headlights, taillights, interior lights, all the above? Thank you.

Thanks,
Alex

Does your remote work? Also, is the security light flashing?
