I have 2001 Camry LE, the car originally came with a factory installed keyless entry system. The dealer installed an alarm system so that the factory keyless entry is used to arm and disarm. I purchased two new remotes for it because according to the owners manual, upto 4 can be programmed. I having trouble programming the new remotes. They are same ones with same FCC number on back. Any suggestions?

What do you mean you are having trouble programming the remotes? Do you have a procedure and it doesn't work? or don't you have any idea on how to do it?

Here are some procedures, see if yours is listed in the first post ref or further down.

I have the procedures, but its not going into program mode.

I programmed the remotes. I was doing one step wrong, all 4 remotes (2 old and 2 new) are programmed and work fine. Thanks!

I haven't been able to get back to post the instructions I found a couple of days ago. To start, all of the doors but the drivers door need to be locked. Step 9 needs to be done twice. I found this at http://www.cartrackers.com/Forums/live/Toyota/79.html and it did work for me. Thanks for replying, though. I noticed in step 10a my locks cycled twice but everything worked out fine (who knows, maybe step 9 should only be done once). None the less, both of my remotes work now so I'm happy.
