Can anyone tell me what this connector and jumper plug are for? Found under drivers kick panel with a little push button wired into it that I have never used.

Part of alarm system added to car

I had the main box just go bad and now don’t have it.

No clue how it worked and also have button.

But I now notice what system did do

Like before I had to unlock door to start car

After a short time before after unlocking car if you didn’t start it alarm would reset and key did nothing until you unlock car with fob


Couldn’t leave car with door unlocked and not have alarm trigger getting in

Now without box open door and start

Box on mine was just above fuse box zip tied to wiring harnesses
When it went bad it caused a no crank and would click like a flasher

Man, I have the same exact issue with my f250, but only with the extra key fob that I “linked”. Once in a awhile the other key fob will do it, pisses me off to say the least. I should rip it out, but the remote start feature is nice.

OP that’s what it is, the push button is for resetting, programming fobs.
