    sorry, dont mean to thread jack but...

    does anyone know how to program a remote to our VX??

    basically when i bought my VX, the guy who sold it to me gave me an extra key fob and i lost my original one...

    so i dug out my alternate one but it doesnt work, the LED lights up on the remote but the car doesnt give the correct signal...

    instead of chirping like stock it gives a longer quieter beep at a really low volume for around 10 to 20 seconds then turns off....almost like a whine...

    Don't sweat it...it'll start working again sooner or later, after four years of ownership, you get used to the "quirkyness" of the beeper that works when it wants to...
    I was just thinking to myself the other day, that mine has been working for a long time without any malfunctions...of course it quit working within hours of that thought...

    I have the instructions printed out, & will bring them with me to Moab. Bring your extra fob along & we'll get it programmed.
    Or do a forums search for "key fob" if you want to do it before then.

    Well, I can't find it in either the alarm manual or the tech manual. However, this thread says how.

    My alarm is still not making any sound, i followed the steps but everything works but the sound.
    Last time it died in the middle of the beep, is there any way that a fuse could have gone bad or something like that?

    Just to bump up this thread.
    My stock alarm makes no noise at all.
    I havent attempted the steps to switch the buzzer on or off.
    But im mainly wondering where the siren is in the vx?

    It is probably the buzzer itself. If I remember it is on the drivers side in front of the firewall .It is wrapped in foam as has a 2 wire plug. I have replaced mine with one I bought at radioshack. shawn
