keyless entry problem.....

I HAVE A 95 LUMINA CAR WITH KEYLESS ENTRY. STARTED TO QUIT WORKING SO PUT IN NEW BATTERIES. WON'T WORK NOW AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED TO BE RE-PROGRAMMED. THEY WANT $99 TO DO IT BUT WAS TOLD I COULD DO IT MYSELF. HOW? PLEASE HELP.....:screwy: going crazy

i think you need to find the code for it

I always thought the reciever in the car is coded to the remote, not vice-versa.

I doubt a recode will help. The remote is probably dead.

There is a thread that deals with programming a remote fob. Try this link or just search this forum for 'bstrom1953' and read the first thread.

Cool. I learn something here all the time! Thanks, I had the wrong idea about how they work...

If you swap in new batteries, just hold LOCK and UNLOCK on the remote for 7-10 seconds to resynchronize them with the receiver.
