If you lock the car with the key after a few minutes does the LED flash?

Well this will tell you if it is working.
Leave the drivers window open. Then with all the doors and hood closed lock the car with the key.
Wait about 2 minutes or so. Then reach in through the open and pull the hood release and see if the alarm goes off.
