Yep, played a tone on the 2nd try. 1st time the volume was down.

Checked the antenna & looks good.

So the radio test conferms that the transmitter is working-correct?
Yes the alarm switch is "on". Ya never know w/ me. - LOL

yep, your transmitter is fine. (which is more than I can say for me at this point, i can't get a tone.)

now,... here's the "quick directions"

remove the rear seat, right quarter insert (behind passenger side)

you'll see the box for the keyless, pull the grey antenna wire out. stick the end of the key in the hole but do not let it touch the inside of the antenna barrel. Press the key button.

Doors lock? (remember they have to be closed)

Mine stopped working all of a sudden a couple of months ago. The radio test passed. I hear a click when I press the button when the radio is set to 94.9.
