Hi there,
I am having "Alarm System's" problem with my Hyundai Matrix 2004 (LaVita).
Problem arise after battery changed. The control unit and the "keychain transmitter is out of sync". Means that my transmitter does not transmit any "on off" command.

Will you please detail me the step/s to rectify this problem.

My system should be aftermarket car alarm, though came fitted with the car, because it has a separate rest button underneath the steering column.

Thanking you in advance
Regards

It is an after market system and they come in various modes and if reprogramming is possible, there are a few variations. Turn ignition "ON' "OFF" repeatedly in sequence until you hear abeeping noise from the alarm indicator. Keep ignition "ON" and press the remote lock button. If you hear any beeping noise, resetting is done. Repeat with any other fob that you might have and turn ignition "OFF" after you are done. Wait 10 seconds and test if the alarm works.
Hope this procedure works otherwise, turn ignigion "ON" and instead of turning key ON/OFF, press the reset button repeatedly until you hear any beeping noise.

Yes, seems the fob has retired itself. Once you have the beeping noise, it means the control module is working but the fob is not responding.

It is possible both are bad as spare units can go bad during storage if the battery was not removed.
