If you turn off the caps-lock, a lot more people will want to help you.
If you go to www.remotesunlimited.com, you can type in the FCC ID number from your alarm brain, and see how much new remotes would cost.
If your parking lights and dash lights don't work, your 20-amp TAIL fuse is probably blown. You can replace it, but it will blow again if the problem is not corrected.
Do you have an aftermarket radio installed? There is a parking light wire at the radio plug, and if it shorts to ground, the fuse will blow.....if you have an aftermarket radio, that's the FIRST place to look.
Also, the parking light wire on a Monte Carlo is brown, and the light-flash output from your alarm is probably white. It might be a good idea to find where the alarm is connected to the parking lights, and make sure the connection is taped up neatly.
If you're not going to use your alarm, disconnect its light-flash output from your car, just in case this is why the fuse is blowing.
