    I forgot to add that my '89 LX doesn't have an alarm system but it will not start unless you activate the left turn signal. It was like that when I bought it and I'm not sure why. Someone obviously wired it like that for a reason and my friend who I bought it from thinks that it had a LoJack system in it at one point because it was like that when he bought it before me.

    That was a very common anti theft method for the late 80s. it's not always the turn signal, but that seems to be the most common in my experience.
