SilverSport Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Nephew got a 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme with one remote from a relative...one key too... Being that he is a teenager and just got his license, I decided his Uncle could help out with some things...with the help of here and the errornet I was able to find how to reprogram an original type remote control and how to find the value of the resistor of his ignition and key for the VATS II... I found a remote off the 'bay (found it elsewhere but it was FAR cheaper on the 'bay) and by searching here and on youtube, I was able to look at several vids on how to reprogram the new remote and the OE remote...now he has two... I also found a new in wrapper GM key of the same value'd resistor and will get it cut to his key when it arrives...if the key cutting and choosing the right "chip" go as easily as the reprogramming did, he should have a spare ignition and GM remote for less than $25 bux... As always...thanks for the help everyone...you make me look like a hero and saved him or his parents a good chunk of change... Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
