How to program an FOB

[Rene M]

OK or this?

there is a way to program it to your specific VX.. heres how...

seperate key from FOB (youll need key in ignition and to be able to press the button from under the dash)

turn the key to the "ON" position, go under dash on drivers side, the unit is a black box most of the way to the left under the dash (towards the drivers side door, on that box theres a tiny green button on the bottom of it, press the green button with a pen or something.. while you hold the green button down, press the lock/unlock button on your fob repeatedly until your vx responds (should be a chirp), release the green button and youre done, take the key out, step outside and enjoy being able to lock and unlock your doors from 5 ft away... if you want more range check this thread http://www.vehicross.info/modules.ph...ewarticle&id=8

I have not done either yet.. I just got a set of used ones for $40. My last one looks more like a pile of dead plastic.. "it fell out of my pocket and got run over."
If you say the second works then i will try it first " its a hell of a lot simpler".
Thanks for the heads up!
i could of been slamming doors all day long..

And that sir, is why i wrote what i did beneath it.

""" everyone pay no heed to the junk i wrote form the dumb alarm/ dealer guy...."""
The correct way " at least on my 99 is as LDUB has listed!

Put the key in.
turn the key on.
hold the green button.
You will hear a beep and you are done!

So simple but so very effective.. Thank you Ldub for saving my afternoon!

does it matter if your doors are open/closed or if the doors are locked/unlocked when using this method?

No, I just programmed mine lst week, with driver door open, doors unlocked, worked fine.

Hey, I think I found something new.....

I was looking thru a bunch of paperwork JAFO included in that stuff I bought last summer.

Found a TSB on the remote key fob.
I don't really see any "problem" that the TSB addressed, but rather clear instructions for programming several options. i.e. chirp on/off, automatic arming on/off, erasing codes and valet mode.

I never knew it had any options.

It also explains how my first 2 remotes got CLEARED last week.....I inadvertently did exactly what they list here....

I did quick search here for this TSB, but only found one concerning issues with a remote start device. I'm sure Mark's master list of TSBs has this.
