Is there a definitive way to bypass / disable alarm on EARLY 944?

Ok I pulled out the instrument cluster today and noticed the harness in the back of the cluster. I'm assuming it's the solid blue wire in the harness that I run the wire to the alternator? Or do I run it to the bulb itself?

Thanks to you, after weeks of trying to figure out the alarm/alternator, my car is now running with a working alternator. I ran a new wire from pin11 from the back of the cluster to the alternator and now im getting a charge from the alternator. Thanks so much!!!

Is pin 11 on the white round plug??? So just cut that pin 11 wire about an inch out butt splice a new wire from there to the alt????? Correct???? Thanks..Ray

Any idea what pin that would be on a late model car? I have and 87 turbo with the same problem. So, if the alarm is active the blue wire is grounded? Would removing the alarm box fix the problem? Apparently, mine is stuck on. When opening the door the alarm just went off. The key to the alarm is MIA.

I did the bypass and the alternator seems to be charging. Reads 12V without the motor running and just under 14V with the motor running. It was under 10V and dropping as the motor ran, prior to the bypass. The voltmeter bulb never illuminates during bulb check or when starting the motor as it should.

That was my initial thought. I swapped it with the oil pressure bulb. It lit up in the oil pressure position and the alternator was still not lighting. The volt meter shows it is charging. The light would be nice though.
