If the remote is arming and disarming the alarm then, it should be locking and unlocking the doors as well. The door lock and unlock wires need to be connected. Are sure that they are connected? Do the door locks work with the switch?

SOURCE: After starting vehicle with remote

Hi,

According to your problem you can first change your remote battery to if it is not malfunctioned for battery. Before start the vehicle press lock key for 1 second to lock the door from remote. If the door locks are connected then horn will honk and the parking light will flash once. If the system is armed then status Led will flash once per second. After check it you can start your vehicle. But don't remote start your vehicle when the key is in ignition. It may help you to solve your problem.

To know more you can follow the manual.

SOURCE: I bought a used car

The Camry you purchased may not be equipped with a power trunk. Press and hold the trunk button for appoximately 4 seconds. The trunk should release if the wire is connected and, you have a power trunk.
The Camry (and other toyotas) require a double pulse on the unlock wire. If the double pulse is not programmed the aftermarket unit will mimic the factory keyless entry. One press of the unlock button opens the drivers door. Immediately press the unlock button again to unlock the other doors.

SOURCE: Car alarm goes off 30 seconds after disarm and open a door

Apparently the alarm is set to passive arming and, once you disarm it, it immediately begins the arming process and it is not registering the door being open. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the alarm door trigger is wired to the dome light and the dome light is turned off; an issue that occurs with GM vehicles that have a dome light override switch. What's the year, make and model of the vehicle?

SOURCE: My lock/unlock remote works but my remote start does not work at all. Was professionally installed 2 years ago. No lights come on and nothing happens when i press the remote start.

Rip it out and do it manualy ,these viper and associated products use electrical components made in china and the specs fall well below the europeon standards of a phillips or a bosch unit ,old saying you get what you pay for.

How do I activate the alarm on my Dodge

The 4103 is not an alarm. It's a remote starter with keyless entry! Do you want the horn to sound when locking and unlocking? First, make sure that the horn wire was connected. Press and hold the lock button on the remote. That should activate the panic/car finder. The horn will begin to sound. Press and release the lock button to turn it off.

If the horn is connected and, you want said horn to sound when locking and unlocking, open door, turn ignition on then off, press and hold programming switch until the horn chirps once. Release programming button, press and release programming one time then, press and hold programming button. While holding the programming button press and release unlock button on remote. You should hear two chirps from the unit. Release programming button, turn ignition on to exit programming, Test system.

Key buttons will not operate locking system,i have changed battery but still no good.use master key,gets me into the car but alarm goes off and also when i attempt to drive it.

I have the same problem kinda. Lost my master key and sent my ecu off with a home made 2 button key to program immobiliser. This key works to start the engin and drive but I cannot get the key to program with the alarm and locking system. You can try the following steps as may work for you.

I can get my car into programming mode after step 1 but step 2 does not work for me. The locks do not go off at all, not once or twice. Battery in remote key is fine as LCD lights red.

Can anyone help please?
