Thanks for the reply. I think I'm gonna find someone with a tech II.
I don't have the ALARM option in the options menu.
And I only have the OFF and LIGHTS ONLY options in the LOCK & ARM menu...

Will let you know

Well, found a friend/Corvette mechanic with a Tech II and he set my BCM back to US spec. It was on European spec, and somehow this disabled the options...

I'm a happy man again

Sorry to rez an old thread. I recently got my first Vette, a 97. The fob doesn't work. I've been trying to find out if there is a way to manually arm/disarm the alarm with just the key or if I'm SOL until I buy a new $90 fob (since I can't get the cheap ones like the 01-04 get).

Thanks

If I'm correct you can lock with the door button and then close the door... The key only locks the door... Don't forget to take the key with you!!
