-   keyless remote doesn't lock or unlock doors, inside lock/unlock button does not work, truck doesn't unlock except manually, and gas door is locked. after pulling release cable doesn't relock. the light gos on and off with keyless remote, and alarm will sound if I hold unlock button on remote too long. Alarm sound if I open truck and driver door locked. I have to manually lock and unlock all doors. Key closes the window and sunroof if hold like normal but can't lock and unlock all locks at same time.
Any Ideas??

-   The key fob will not lock the doors. I press the button and get three chirps. I need to reset the alarm. I believe the car was tampered with. -   Guest

Hold both buttons the Open and the Lock on your remote key for about 60 seconds, it should turn the lights inside the car and the problem should be fixed.
It worked on my Honda Accord 2004

my Volvo acts like that if someone sets off the alarm. You probably already tried this, but just use the key in the doorlock if you can, then get in and drive it normally. lock and unlock the doors some like you might normally, while the key is in the ignition (using the door buttons inside) and that should reset the alarm... good luck!
