Alarm System Options

[pongt17]

Hello all,
I've been meaning to ask if anyone know anything about alarm system wiring. I guess the previous owner broke his remote to his alarm so instead of getting a replacement remote he decided that he didn't want the alarm so he cut the wires. It didn't bother me, but now I noticed that my door light doesn't come one when I open my door and also the door ajar light doesn't come on when I open my door or if my door isn't close all the way. Does anyone know how I can go about looking to see where to reconnect the wires? I found 2 wires under the dash on the driver sided. I know one goes to the alarm under the hood b/c it has the same color, but I am not sure what the other wire is and what I need to reconnect to get my door lights to work. Any suggestion would be appriecate it.
Thanks

If the previou owner cut it, my guess is that he cut/disconnect the wires going to the door switch. Check those switches and see if they're still connected, if they are he might have sliced the wires from the plug. You said something abt the two wires found underthe dash? here is a wiring diadram:

Where are the switches? I took the dash off to see where the wires are connected to, but can't seem to tell. One of the wires have 2 black and red connected to each other. The other wire is black w/red strip. Then while looking around I found a black wire as well. I also notice toward the back there is a harness that's not connected to anything, but I can't find where it might connect to. Thanks
