: Hello again, my euro m6 has another problem: the throttle stays open after I mash it, and revs up when I hit the clutch! OUCH! Is this the cable, or what? I think it corrects itself when I put my foot behind the pedal, and tug it back out. Is there a quick fix for the cable? can I run a new cable/sleeve through the firewall, and if I do, is it hard to do?

: Also: HOW IN THE HECK DOES THAT ALARM WORK? I put the key in that spot on the back, and it does not turn. I figured out how to set the key, but how about the socket it fits? Is there a way to reset it to match the key? HELP!!!!

: thank you all,
: Newbie

The way the alrm work is the magnetic keying on the key itself. It doesn't turn or whatever. To set the alarm, lock the driver door to 3 o'clock, then insert the alarm key and watch for flashing lite, then remove the key- no turn/ twist. Reinsert key and pull out after lite flash to turn off alarm, then open master door lock. Good luck.
