xsdbs Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 when you go back have them plug the factory radio back in and test the keyless/ alarm on the last honda I did I had to hide the factory radio, I don't remember the exact year of it but the factory keyless was integrated in the radio, and for some reason I think that there was something else that didn't work without the factory radio, might have been dome lights.

You're thinking of the 96-98 civics. The keyless/alarm brain was contained in the stock deck. The 06+ are not. Odds are they disconnected something or put the alarm into valet mode. Take it back to them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
