The new alarm module is not "new", it is rather just a replacement for my old one. My old one needed replacement because the seal around my tail light broke and allowed water to leak onto the alarm module. However if you are asking that question because you do not think yours has the functionality, I'm pretty sure they all do. So just try holding you alarm button down for 5 seconds with the car off and the car on. I had to try it a few times but I finally did get it to work. Now I have to find how to get the lights to stay on when I get out of the car.
