I posted about this a long time ago, but forgot how to deal with it. I just removed my stock head unit and replaced it with an aftermarket unit. Now my keyless entry does not work. I think there is either a switch or wire the behind the head unit that resets the harness after the unit is disconnected. Help please!!

Stock head unit has a roughly 1" long rod that screws into the back of it. This pushes on something inside the dash related to the alarm. If you forget about this when installing an aftermarket unit, the alarm won't work right. (Actually if I recall correctly, the alarm will just go off as soon as you try to arm it...)
