You need a key fob.

You can test it without a key fob, put ur drivers side window down, lock the doors trunk and hood, after this the light will be solid for 30secs, wait 30 secs until it continues blinking than open the door from the inside and ur alarm will ring and your headlights lights will flash, to stop the alarm simply unlock your door using your key

Don't have a key fob or a manual. So I guess I can't check it.

You can test it without a fob.
The alarm can be armed from the driver's door lock cylinder using your key. The rest you can follow maxfever's instruction about opening the door from the inside...
Oh and to disarm it when it goes off, unlock using the key in the driver's door.

Also i have tested that if the alarm goes off and the security light is solid red and does not blink, the car will not turn on(as if a thief were trying to start the car), . But if u reset the alarm, the car will turn on if u have the original key. this is for 95-98

To program the remote(s) follow this procedure.

1. Unlock all doors and get in car.

2. Close and lock all doors with power door lock switch on driver's door.

3. Insert the igniton key and completely remove from the ignition switch
at least 6 times within 10 seconds. The hazard warning lamps (both turn
signals) will then flash twice and all previous codes will be cleared.

4. Turn ignition key to "ACC" position.

5. Push the "Lock" button on the new remote controller once. At this time,
the car learns the new ID code. The hazard warning lamps (both turn
signals) will then flash twice.

If you are programming just one remote, go to step 10.
If you need to activate additional remote controllers, continue with Step 6.

6. Manually unlock the driver's door only then lock again with door lock
****.

7. Push lock button on the additional remote controller once.

8. Hazard warning lamps (both turn signals) will then flash twice and
additional remote is programmed.

9. For additional remotes, go back to step 6.

10. When done, open the driver's door to exit programming state.


NOTE: A maximum of 4 remotes can be programmed to any ONE car.
