Well its freezing cold here in NY and since Monday my clifford matrix rsx 50.5x completely stopped responding. I'm not sure if its due to the cold weather or if it simply died. I hit the buttons on the remote and nothing happens and the alarm never activates. I was wondering if there is a master fuse for the whole alarm that could have blown or where I can look. Thanks in advance for the help.
There will be a master fuse, to test, use ign. switch and valet/program switch to put alarm into valet mode, [solid LED] if you can put the alarm into and out of valet mode, the main alarm fuse is good.
If so check and make sure alarm ant. is properly plugged in, both ends.
If good, try reprogramming the remote. 94

Thanks for the reply. I finally got around to testing since the temperature wasn't too bad yesterday. I was unable to put the alarm to valet mode. The led hasn't been working for the last few weeks. I checked all the plugs and everything is plugged into the brain. It seems like the alarm brain isn't getting any power at all. I put a test light to the wires on the H1 harness and only two had power, I forgot which two but it was on the end i think it was the white and also the blue one. I also took a look under the dash and all wires seem properly connected. I also checked the five fuses I could see, 3 green on the satellite connector and one red and one blue near the h1 connector and none had power. Any ideas what I should check next? Thanks for the help.
On the H1 connector, H1/2 red is the only one that should have power, hot at all times.
You may "read" 12V+ on the H1/7 blue if it is connected to trunk/hatch trigger, and trunk/hatch is closed.
The heavy gauge relay satellite connectors two red leads and the red/white are all 12V+, hot at all times.
So if you have no power on them, you need to check where they are connected, all four may be connected to a single source, like a fused lead from the batt. or the fuse box, either way, all four must have power, [12V+] on them at all times, ign. switch on or off.
