    Yes you press lock twice within 10 seconds. The indicators with then light up and stay on for a few seconds. The car is now deadlocked and the alarm is activated. Cool thing about it is that if the alarm is tripped, when you next turn the ignition on, it will display in the cluster where on the car the alarm was triggered. (Doors, boot, bonnet etc etc. )

    Does this on my SS but if you're not sure if the Lumina is the same, deadlock the car then pop the boot and it should go off.

    look for a bonnet pin under bonnet in the middle near the lever
    look for horn on pass side firewall
    if both present you have an alarm
    if not present you dont

    Lock your car with the remote. Alarm should now be activated. Now open your door with the key without using the remote. Once your door is open the alarm should sound within a few seconds. Alarms were standard on the base models since the VX (not quite sure if series one or two). Anyway give it a go!

    Why don't you go try instead of bumping a 3 year old thread?
