ALARM & RADIO TROUBLE

I HAVE A 2000 PARK AVE. RECENTLY, MY RADIO AS WELL AS MY ALARM ARE FAILING TO WORK. NEITHER THE HORN OR THE LIGHTS WORK WITH THE KEY FOB, THE RADIO WILL NOT TURN ON AND THE TRUNK DOES NOT OPEN WITH THE KEY FOB. THE DOORS WILL LOCK AND UN LOCK WITH THE KEY FOB. ANY ADVISE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
 
Go to the dealer! If your warranty is still valid, they'll fix it. If not, you may get lucky and there might be a silent recall, TSB, or SSM on this symptom, in which case they may also fix it for free regardless of your warantee.
All modern cars nowadays have ATLEAST 5 computers, in addition to all the modules which control everything from your windows to fuel management. Thus to properly diagnose this problem, the car will need to be hooked up to a scanner.
I would imagine that the anti-theft module is malfuntioning, and needs replacement. You may be looking at upwards of $500 for this repair, if it's not covered by warranty.

Good luck
Ben
