Do the door locks work if you don't use the remote? If noy then you blew the door lock fuse and if I remember right it's a 20A fuse in the fuse box under the dash.

You don't check fuses by pulling them out and looking at them. You test for continuity with a voltmeter.

The RF section of your stock key-less entry system was in the stock HU, and there are 2 ways to deal with it, get one of these... http://www.scosche.com/scosche...HA07B

and leave stock HU connected behind dash/console... http://www.installdr.com/Insta...3.pdf scroll down a little and read note.

Or you can just add an alarm and connect the door lock outputs from the alarm the the cars door lock system.

BTW, does your dome light work? 94

PS- Oh yea, 94 is the year of my teg, it is also my autocross race number and a lot easier then ending my posts with sincerely yours, love FCM yours truly, get the picture?

Just get the harness with the jumper, for the price of a stock HU from the dealer you can get a pretty good alarm installed, with key-less entry, hood pin and trunk/hatch trigger. 94

If you want to stick your stock HU behind the dash, you will need this harness... http://www.scosche.com/scosche...HA07B

Here is how you do the install... http://www.installdr.com/Insta...3.pdf leave the security/key-less entry plug, [green] plugged in the the stock radio, use the "T" harness to connect both the stock radio and the aftermarket HU to the stock radio harness, your key-less and dome light should start working again. 94
