Need more info... What IS it doing? Did you change anything recently? Any lights? How's it acting when you try to fire it up?

alarm is disabling fuel pump. did you mess with any wiring? you may have pulled a connection loose.

The VW Vortex VR6 engine forum might be a good place to start. And if you don't have the Bentley manual... get one... they really help out a lot. Bentley (Bentley publishing, that is) manuals are the ones the dealership tech use. You can find 'em on Amazon for about $40.

And are you not getting spark or are you not getting fuel? Does your engine have a distributor or individual coilpacks?

[terrytowe22]

individual coilpacks i had the car runnin the other day then i set the alarm in try crannkin it in would not crank gettin fuel no spark. i think the alarm deativated the igntion system??
