Tint = broken keyless remote

Can anyone tell me exactly how to reprogram the keyless remote for a 98? It's an I30 but I assume it's the same as for the max. I went to have my Windows tinted about a month ago and when he finished neither of my keyless remotes worked anymore.

Dont ask me how he managed that.

thanks

What does tint have to do with your alarm?

That's exactly what I'm asking. But it worked when I dropped the car off at the tint shop and didn't when I picked it up.

Anyone know exactly where the receiver is for the keyless remote? In the trunk somewhere, but exactly and maybe what it looks like so I know what to look for?

If it was truly the tint job that caused the problem, it possibly has to do with messing up the back glass antenna. On the right side of the glass under the plastic trim panel, there is an antenna basically plastered onto the glass. There are wires connected to it for the radio and the keyless entry, which is located behind the trim panel in the trunk forward of the jack.

I'm currently trying to solve keyless entry problems of my own. I just got a factory service manual off e-bay. If you want to learn more than enough info about troubleshooting the keyless entry, try to find one. There's way too much info in there!
