The word CODE on the radio has N O T H I N G to do with your alarm
system. You need to read your manuals. I could install your Honda radio
in a Chev and it would still show CODE when I powered it up. I'd enter
the anti-theft code and it would work perfectly for 5 years until
somebody disconnected the battery. Then I'd enter the CODE again.

Your car alarm (assuming it's Honda) has to be shut off using the
'unlock' button on the remote. If you unlock the car but don't touch it,
it will relock (and re-arm) in 15? seconds. Please read these PDI sheets
for some help (they are for a newer model, but should help)
