Recommended Posts

ok 97 obw

just got a replacement remote with instructions. pretty easy. says to hold either the led button or button under the dash and the system will make the lock turn on and off three times and then you are in programming mode. ok tried each button (with key on like it says0 and not getting it into program mode. any ideas if i have fuse i need to replace or my system just doesn't work. please help all i want is a keyless entry

Ummm how long are you holding the button under the dash? I find that is takes several seconds of holding the button in before the locks cycle. Try holding the button in for a good fifteen seconds. A minute at the most extreeme. If the locks do not cycle after a minute of holding the button in, then try seeing if you are holding the right button. it should be a black button in a black casing.

yeah i have held it for 40 seconds, i am pretty sure it is the right button. it is right behind the hood release. iterestingly i have to push that button in to start the car aswell. does that make any sense? would there be another button. also i have a few fuses that are not in the fuse box. would they have anything to do with it?

 

thanks
