Land Rover Repair: Remote Programming, correct frequency, freelander

Question
Do you know how to program the remote control locking/unlocking devices for a 2001 Freelander (I believe same as Discovery)?

Answer
Hi Dave,

here are the instructions that I am aware of.  You'll need the assistance of a friend or family member to depress and release the hood switch while you work from the driver's seat.

Programming for my 1995 Disco (one-button fob)

1. Starting conditions: ignition off, doors unlocked, hood switch depressed.

2. Carry out instructions 3. to 9. within 8 seconds.

3. Switch ignition to ON.

4. Switch ignition OFF.

5. Lock doors by pressing down on drive door lock.

6. Unlock doors by lifting up drivers door lock.

7. Release hood switch.

8. Switch ignition to ON.

9. Switch ignition OFF. At this point, if the alarm was correctly accessed, horn will sound and LED will light. It is now possible to program two handsets of correct frequency to vehicle alarm ECU. This must be carried out within two minutes.

10. Press and hold down button on first handset until dash LED flashes.

11. Repeat instruction 10 when dash LED flashes for second handset. The LED will extinguish if both handsets have been programmed correctly

Best of luck for with your Freebie!
