i just need to reprogram then right? i think that was my problem the whole time
it sounds like she may not have had an alarm system at all
here is what i would do
install the head unit with the volume knob that works
make sure that the green plug (keyless) is plugged in as well as the grey plug (stereo)
make sure that it turns on
put keys in ignition, turn to accesory
then press and hold the small button between the two main buttons on the far right of the head unit
the locks will reset
then press the lock button on the keyless remote
the locks should cycle again
this has set the remote to the correct frequency for the head unit
you should be good to go now
