QuestionI've been having a problem with my keyless entry to my car. About 50% of the time, my system won't recognize my remote. Without the remote working, I cant enable the starter to the car. The remote device itself works, or I'm guessing it does since the red light flashes on the device, so I'm guessing it must be a problem with the cars system itself? Or maybe not? Any advice you could give me would be very appreciated
AnswerYou'll need to set off the alarm for a few seconds.
then, look under the dash area for a button or, a toggle
switch. When you locate it, turn on the ignition
key, press and hold in the button (little
spring loaded micro button, red or black possibly)
until the alarm chirps 1 time. This should over ride
the system, and only the keyless entry part,
if installed, would still be operating.
The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid.
At this point. the alarm would have reset.
If this had a starter kill relay installed,
it would now be opened, and the engine would
turn over when tried. This is override/reset.
You would repeat these steps to go back to
user mode but in your case, I'd leave it this
way until you can have a service technician
get under there and remove/replace & repair.
DO NOT leave this system in there or your
headache will get worse.
Let me know what you discover
& if you want to upgrade to a
better, more reliable system.
