I think my 1992 Nissan 240SX has the same issue. Good to know I'm not alone.

Will this work if the 1992 Nissan 240SX has an aftermarket alarm?

Key Fob Issues
1) Find the seam and pry open the fob (some have tiny screws) 2) Note battery orientation 3) Remove old battery (CR2032 is most common) 4) Insert new battery 5) Reassemble. Test all buttons - if issues remain, the fob may need reprogramming.
