'96 i30 - Suddenly neither of my remotes is working. New batteries don't fix them, either. I can only assume that the security system in the car is hosed. As a start, however, I'd like to attempt re-program the remotes. Can someone please post the instructions?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Keith

 

i had the same problem, then someone on here told me to try reseting my ecu. it worked. if it doesn't, then it could be the BCM. that's a part that i'm doing more research on for my car since i'm having other security system problems.

 

i think u get in the car, locked the doors, insert you car key 7 or more times in 10 secs, then you push a button on the remote after the flashers flash! i think thats it.

 

It may be the "brain" in the car...I THINK it's below the stock antenna...somewhere over there.

 

I did the procedure enough times to know, its get in, and lock the door. Then put the key in at least 6 times within 10 seconds and the hazards will flash. then turn the key to acc and hit lock on the remote, and the hazards will flash again. unlock the door and try the remote.

 

Thanks, guys. Unfortunately when I do the procedure, it's good for only the particular remote I'm programming. I haven't figured out how to program two remotes.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Keith

 

Here's the procedure from the 1995 Factory Shop Manual

Replacing Remote Controller or Multi-Remote Control Unit (LCU05)

Enter the identity (ID) code manually when:

* remote controller or multi-remote control unit LCU05 is replaced.
* an additional remote controller is activated.

ID Code Entry Procedure

To enter the ID code, follow this procedure.
Entering "Setting mode":

(1) Close and lock all doors.

(2) Insert and remove the key from the ignition more than six times within 10 seconds. (The hazard warning lamp will then flash twice.) At this time, the original ID codes are eliminated.
ID code entry:

(3) Turn ignition key to "ACC" position.

(4) Push lock button on the new remote controller once (for example, if door is locked using the remote controller during this ID code entry enable state, a new ID code can be entered). At this time, the new ID code is entered. (The hazard warning lamp will then flash twice.)
Additional ID code entry

(5) If you need to activate additional remote controllers, unlock the driver's door, then lock again with door lock ****.

(6) Push lock button on the additional new remote controller once.

(7) This ID code entry enable state and setting mode remain until the driver's door is opened.
NOTE

* If you need to activate more than two additional new remote controllers, repeat the procedure "Additional ID code entry" for each new remote controller.
* If the same ID code that exists in the memory is input, the hazard warning lamps will flash twice but the entry will be ignored.
* Entry of maximum four ID codes is allowed and any attempt to enter more will be ignored.

Any ID codes entered after termination of the "setting mode" will not be accepted. Additionally remote control signals will be inhibited when an ID code has not been entered during the "setting" mode.

 

ok i tried getting in locking doors, ect.(the whole 9 yards) except for my hazards never flashed, i even had recently put a new battery in, do i need to reset the ecu in order for this to work?

 

try it cause it worked for me...i mean i got the remotes to program, but my lights don't flash anymore.
