yesterday my buddy said he heard that keyless entry signals can be transmitted through cellphones. i was like bullsh!t! IT WORKS! at least on his galant. somebody try it on a max!!! i havent tried it on mine yet. he was in my basement and i went to his car. he called me and held his keyless entry remote up to his phone, pushed the button and it worked. somebody do it!--dave

 

Why don't you do it instead of commanding the members on here to do it. The majority of us would better spend our time at a dyno tuning rather than tinkering with that uselss shyt IMO.

were you 2 doing in your basement

Remote can reach 100+ feet with strong battery, how far was his car from him?

 

he must have had a honda... it only works with honda owners.. we usually just walk up to the car

On my Maxima's remote I had really great range, it would work from 2 blocks away parked on the street from my friend's 9th story apartment in NYC.

 

B.S. He was probably still in range. The frequency of the remote's transmitter is too high to be picked up audibly through an phone. The compression/ distorition alone would kill any chance of a clear signal reaching across a cell phone line.

 

it really worked. he was in my basement and he told me to get his cds out of his car. when the car unlocked i was freaking out and hung up the phone by accident. the car wouldnt unlock till i called him back so he deff. wasnt in range. and last night i did it at the mall to get my wallet out of his car. i dont know if its just mistubishi or if our cars do it too.

 

so he was in the basement and the car was outside......HE WAS IN RANGE!!!!! Hello, earth to ihadahonda.....Houston, we have a problem.

 

he most deff. was NOT in range. it didnt work without using the phone. we tried it.

 

I'd go and try this out since my car is parked like a mile from my office building just to shut you up, but it's about a 100 degrees outside. Screw that.

 

I think ihadahonda's friend was laughing his but off. I sure wish I was in the basement, I can see myself watching him thru the window, amazed at how this is actually working.

End of thread.

 

Kinda OT, but do you guys ever put the remote to your chin to get more range? Now that is PROVEN to work. Don't know how and don't know why, but the human body can act like an antenna.

 

Sorta like how you stand next to a radio antenna to clear up the fuzzy radio reception

 

Yeah i tried this and it actually works... my friend was at the back of the house and he told me to get something out of his car.. the remote wouldn't work until he put it up to his chin.. we tried a million times... once it was close enough to his chin, it worked... holy crip its a crapple

wheres the locky thingy?

 

Umm...in the basement is not far from the car that's why I think it worked. If it really works through cellphones, I'd be amazed.

 

i actually tried this just to see if it worked, i drove down the street like a mile, and had my dad do it over a cellphon, did not work, ps i was really bored

 

thats hella weird. we also did it in the mall. there was no way his remote could have reached that far. im gonna test it again and see.

 

They forgot to say that for this thing to work keyfob has to be attached to a 12" subwoofer to increase resonance.

 

omigosh!

 

 

yeah when i was on the phone with my buddy who was on the moon we tried it, it really works...

 

That's because you were still in range...duh!

 

There are many veins under your chin that run through the rest of your body. I believe that most of you veins run via your chin. When you put the remote there, you body instantly acts as an antenna and the signal is increased via the rest of your body.

Some news channel is gonna come out and say this causes cancer or some sheit like that.

 

i know the chin thing works...my firends make fun of me when i do it, but i know it works. Tom G. from the Bob and Tom show was talking about it one day...
