"You can test the output from the alarm with you tester. "

Test the alarm output? What do you mean and how do you do it?

"Is your parklight working fine with the alarm?"

I cannot test it because my alarm doesnt work

"Make sure you have the right ignition wire connected to the alarm."

First time, I did not need to connect the ignition wire, and i still can disarm/arm, lock/unlock.
Even after I hooked it on.. it still work, but after I up the wrong wire.. it screwed
I connected the ignition wire to my Radio ignition wire.

P.s Brain dead right?

Ohmz,

  NO I did not smell anything burnt. LoL...  A friend of mine smelled it too and he did not smell anything burning.  THe thing that I think is weird is if the alarm unit is burnt then how the heck did it it work with the trunk release and how come I could press the over ride button(to set up the sirens sounds and stuff).  You know what I mean??  I unit might be defected?

Did the door locks ever work ? Chances are you may have burned out a resistor in the door lock circuit. Bring it back to the dleaer and tell them that it's a warranty item and see what they say ?

Yes the door locks used to work with the remote control, but now it doesnt.  I still can lock/unlock my door manually, which mean nothing is burnt inside the car.

"Chances are you may have burned out a resistor in the door lock circuit. "

Is this resistor is from the UNIT?

"Bring it back to the dleaer and tell them that it's a warranty item and see what they say ?"

I bought it through ebay. ahhhhh.. Can i call the manufacture instead?

Have you tried testing the output of the lock / unlock wires with a DMM to see if you get a (-) signal through the wires ? If you have not, you might want to do this , otherwise you will not know for sure if it's a blown locking/unlocking circuit in the alarm module or just your wiring. If in fact the unit is fried, contact the person that you bought it through on eBay and ask them about warranty and if they will take this item back for exchange. If they do not, kindly ask them for the manufacturer contact information and go through the manufacturer.

what does DMM mean?  I can lock and unlock the doors by sticking the tester through the wires that are connected to the lock/unlock doors wires. 

Anyway, i think something is wrong with the alarm.  It was working find but not it is not. I called the manufacturer and they told me to send it to them since i havent bought it for a year yet. I"ll keep you guys posted ok. Thanks for your great help!!!

A DMM is a digital multimeter and you have to test the wires coming out of the alarm so you can see if there is in fact a (-) signal going to the lock wires.
