After unlocking the door, you should put the key directly into the ignition so the code is recognized. Otherwise, you will set off the alarm if you try popping a trunk lid on an '01. This is what the dealer told me.

Still a lot at 120.00, but far better than the 3 to 400 I was initially given. Hopefully I'll never need it!
Well, my spare is a 'non-remote' and it works fine. The important part is that the dealer programmed the car to recognise the key. You have over one minute to insert the key into the ignition and turn it before the car alarm goes off. I just quit locking the car.

And welcome to 986forum.
