Default Miata Key FOB thingy

My 1994 Miata has a key fob (sp?). I am unsure of what exactly it does. I was curious if anyone could/would tell me how it works and how to make it work. IT has two buttons on it and says auto security system. Thanks again.

It's not stock. Without a brandname you won't get much help. Can you find anything under the dash or hood that doesn't look stock?

I was told it was stock with the car. It reads MAZDA on it. I'm posting a picture now

Never seen one in my life, sorry. Sure someone has though.

Thanks for the interest. I'm trying to just figure out what it does and how to work it. I'm going to get hte battery replaced tomorrow and see. I asked the dealer, he said the last guy to know bout them died in a welding accident. Hope it's not true.

Okay I replaced the battery inside it and still no luck with it. Guess it doesn't work.
