when i hit the lock buton the leadlights dont flash and the alarm does nothing and there is no beep and the alarm light works but there is no sound to the alarm and the lights dont flash so in other words there is no way to tell if the car is locked ro unlocked. 1996 platnum edition

 

Did the lights work at one time?

Some cars only have keyless and no alarm. The horn is not supposed to make noise when locking or unlocking.

 

the alarm makes no noise when it is enabled. The lights never worked. i am wondering if it was disconected?

 

Your car might only have Keyless entry and no alarm.

2 ways to check. 1. look in the middle of the firewall bye where the upper engine mount goes to the body. Is there a horn there?
2. Look at the drivers side hood latch and see if there is any wires coming out of the latch.

 

there are wires comming from the hood latch on the drivers side. There is a bunder of them there but inderneath and one dangering i was wondering what they were

 

If you have an alarm then there should be 2 wires from the latch to a plug.
And does your car have the horn?

 

ill take a look the horna dn the danaged wire and see if it needs to be contected

 

here is wut i found

The top one is an alarm horn.

With all the wires you found sounds like someone has really been messing with the car.

Try this and see if anything happens. Open the drivers window and close the door. Take the keys or remote and lock the car. Wait about 1 to 2 minutes. Then reach in and pull the hood release and see if anything happens.

Also when you lock the car do you see the parking lights flash?

 

well the alarm went off but the lights dont flash and when the alarm is set the red dash light flashes but when i hit the car or jiggle the handel or something it dosent go off

 

If it is the factory system it won't do anything. It is a very basic Alarm.
The lights should flash unless someone had them turned off.

 

so the alarm shouldnt sound or anything the only way i can get any sound is the hood thing?

 

It works with the doors as well. If someone breaks into the door.

 

so is there anyway that i can make it so i kno if i have locked my car or unlocked it with the remote ie. wireing or aftermarket thing?

 

If you want to pay you can have the dealer go into the computer and make sure the lights are activated.
You could also pay and have an Aftermarket alarm system pigybacked to yours. It would work when you locked the car with your remote.
