Today I've been trying to remove the TV antenna & wiring that came with my car, and while doing that I came across a massive amount of surplus wire that connects to nothing (left over from a GPS / TV tuner / god knows what else) and I'm a little concerned that if I remove this redundant wiring that it may screw with my alarm & immobilizer.
Heres a pic:
and here is a pic of where it joins the cars ECU (small red plug at centre left) :
Rational part of me says that seeing as how none of that wiring was connected to anything when the alarm was installed - it shouldn't change things if the wiring is removed. Just wanna check first before I go all snip happy tho!
Any alarm / electronics experts out there able to tell me if I'm likely to run into trouble if I remove all the cables?
