Keyless Remote Question
My keyless remote just stopped working recently and I have tried replacing the battery, but that didnt work so I seek some help....When i took the remote apart I found a wire that was soddered to a piece of metal, but the other end was not attached to anything. Is the wire suppose to be connected to the circuit board too? If so, what part of the circuit board?
|
Can you take a picture of it. By that, we can probably tell you where the wire goes. :)
|
Its possible that the wire is just part of the antenna. I agree that a picture would assist most in this case.
|
Well it seems the wire was just the antenna :/ lol and the problem was that the case was cracked so bad that it wouldnt hit the button anymore....so now i need to find a new case.
|
Someone knows where to get new remotes that work with the cars, but i'm not sure who. If you find htem i'm interested as well.

Bit expensive though. And I'm guessing that to program the security system one would need two of them... right? I think that's what the manual said... mine didn't come with any remote.:o |
well it's 35$ to replace the batteries in my remote... it takes 8x 392 button cell batteries, and i have the factory. If anyone knows an alternative battery for it that would be sweet.
HA! Item#: 8591 List Price: $0.45 Our Price: $7.45 Availability: In-Stock. kiss my ass, $7 mark-up... |

Found. Thanks. I was pretty sure that one existed, having 8 of those batterys taped together couldn't be right. I just couldn't seem to find one that was similar in size.

The instructions want you to fill in all of the programming "slots". So if you only have one remote, you'll need to store it four or five times. The instructions assume you have two remotes, so they tell you to store one remote twice and the other remote three times... Quote:

Oh, wow! Thanks a bunch, SVXdc!:D

Thanks much for info, have been reading up on this. I have about 6 keyless remotes for different make/model cars laying around. i want to attempt to program my car to them, to see if any compatability is there. If so that might be an easy alternative, as the cheapest i can find to buy is 40-50$, while other cars they are more readily available, some times as cheap as 15$.

The SVX's module is fairly old -- circa '91. The same SVX remotes work for any model year, so that means the modules kept the same encoding scheme throughout the entire line. I would hope that newer alarms/remotes use a better scheme with more bits. |
I managed to get mine working, and it works. It just sounds like a dying cat when I hit the button. The lights blink/flash, but barely visible at night, certainly not during the day. The horn beeps 3-4 times, but like the battery is going dead. It's really difficult to tell if the alarm is armed or not, becuase i can't see the lights and it has to be perfectly silent to hear the horn. Any idea why that might be?
|
If you are getting rapid beeps, I think that means that the alarm portion is disabled... its been forever since I have messed with the stock alarm, so I am not positive on this... its either that, or it thinks a door is still open somewhere...
