not too sure as i have aftermarket alarm but try holding the button down for a few secs, see if the car gives a signal to say its coded...

dont really kno tbh just guessing, probs not cos then any1 could disarm your car

1. Unlock the vehicle using the Key.

2. Press the LOCK button 2 times within 20 seconds of unlocking the vehicle
