Key learning code

Thanks for the info.. I checked the fuse and it's good.. If I replace the unit, do I need the PST2 to make the windows, door locks, etc work? I know I have to bring it to the dealer to reprogram the remove and immobilizer..

Thanks

You need a PST2 to code a replacement unit, then those things will work.

I take it the car starts, but only the "comfort" features don't work. That is strange. Usually when the control unit goes out you can't start the car. That is why I was hoping it was the fuse.

Todd knows this electronic stuff better than me.

Hi,

When I bought the car, the car starts but window, alarm, door lock didn't work. So I unplugged the connector to the control unit and turned on the ignition. After that, the car wouldn't start anymore. Oh, the carpet was wet when I bought the car so I assume the control unit was fried. Do you think the control unit is the problem? Any suggestion? I was going to buy a unit and key fob from sunset and have a dealer program for me.

Thanks

Hi,
I finally bought the control unit from sunset. When I compared it to the old one, I found out there is a 15 A fuse on the new one but it is missing on the old one. I then intalled a 15A fuse to the old unit and now the car starts, alarm works and door lock works. The only thing not working now is the windows. I checked power and ground and both are good. What else can I check? Any suggestions?

Thanks

I had my driver side window stop working on me a while back while I was messing with the radio. After looking through the manual and on-line I disconnected the battery, waited a few, and hooked it back up. I was then able to run the window down and back up so it would relearn the up and down positions. I had to do this twice because I didn’t do the “on touch” up and down with the door closed.

Why the window stopped working in the first place I do not know. I must have been leaning on the switch or something.

Hi,

I fixed the windows too.. Both power wires were corroded inside the front door grommets causing open cirucits.. Now everything works.. But I don't think i can return the alarm ECU even though i didn't even install it.. Thanks for all ur help.
