'91' XJ: disconnecting fan relay a good idea?
I've got problems w/the anti-theft BS in my Cherokeet. It's throwing false
alarms. It's funny how it only goes off at 3:00 a.m. So far I haven't caught
anyone breaking into the vehicle (which is parked in the street). My
neighbors won't put up with it much longer so I'm going to yank the horn
relay. Aside from making the horn non-operational this shouldn't cause any
problems right?

Maybe they aren't false alarms!
No horn shouldn't cause any problem, except having no horn.....

Check your battery cables. I was having similar troubles and found that
loose or corroded cables were leading to a current drain (caused by dew
I guess) would set the thing off. After a through cleaning and
tightening, it stopped. 2 years now, and the only time the alarm went
off was when some bastards broke the rear quarter window.

Another thing to check is the sensors at each point, doors, hood and so on.
Sometimes a bad sensor will cause false alarms.
