Alarm Battery Pack ( in car )?

Good for you, for rescuing a classic bit of '80s kit.

Found when taking it all apart and clean it ready for a battery.
The black wire cane off the key bit is this unreplaceable or where does it go?

I suspect it's an aerial wire. Just look on the topside of the board for a thru-hole which has solder underneath and may have remnants of the wire poking out.

My key also doesn't work with the alarm box anymore?
Could this be a battery type problem or should I just cut all wires and forget all about the alarm?
Would the CL still work?

Second quote relevant to the first?
There are only two pins on the key switch, and only one wire to each. How many wires on your switch?

Like 3 or 4?

Definitely more than 2.
