Justin Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 My 89 CS has keyless entry, but I have no keyfobs. Do the newer style 4 button ovalish GM keyfobs work with the older 3 button keyfob system? Also, how about a step-by-step on programming keyfobs to your car? I know you have to ground the wire by the antenna, but that's it. Quote
93CutlassSupreme Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 i was just wondering if anyone's keyless entry works Quote
99RegalGS Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 I don't think they are interchangable. Look and see if the FCC #'s are the same. Quote
supreme_style21 Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 They are NOT interchangable. Quote
Justin Posted April 22, 2004 Author Report Posted April 22, 2004 Curses. I'd like to have keyless entry in the car, but would just as soon use the factory stuff. I could throw a remote start with keyless in there but with the 5 speed and no e-brake cable I think it would be a bad idea. Quote
supreme_style21 Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 Use a factory keyless remote. I've got one for an Oldsmobile lying around somewhere.. I just saw it when I was packing. If I can find it again, its yours. Can't guarentee it'll work.. but its free. IIRC, it came with my Cutlass Supreme. I never used it cause it had some aftermarket starter/keyless. Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 i was just wondering if anyone's keyless entry works mine does i just took out the RKE reciever and re-soldered the box earlier this week. it's the 4th time i've taken the box out and re-soledered, but this time i used paste flux which seemed to help the solder flow over the solder joint better/more evenly. hopefully it keeps working... the range seems to really suck tho - maybe new batteries in the transmitter will help?

99RegalGS Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 I extended the attenna sp? for my keyless entry I can get up to 50 feet away. Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 how do you extend the antenna? isn't the antenna that wierd double-triangle looking thing sticking out of the end of one of the circuit boards? Quote
99RegalGS Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 I soldered a 10' wire to the antenna connection, and ran the wire behind the back seat. worked better than I thought it would. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 I resoldered the keyless entry box in the 94 convertible once 2yrs ago. I resoldered the entire thing with paste flux and it's been perfect this whole time. Quote

supreme_style21 Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 Alright. There is one more guy ahead of you that wants it. I MIGHT have one from a Pontiac in a box somewhere too. But I believe that one was broken.. I think the keyring tab was snapped off. I'll see what I come up with. Quote
jeremy Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 . But I believe that one was broken.. I think the keyring tab was snapped off. I'll see what I come up with. ....that's exactly how mine is..... :? anyway let me know if he doesn't want it.... later Quote
Z34door Posted April 23, 2004 Report Posted April 23, 2004 im guessing luminas arentt wired for keyless entry Quote
Black90Euro Posted April 24, 2004 Report Posted April 24, 2004 not sure but I had Keyless done for $180 works great Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted April 24, 2004 Report Posted April 24, 2004 Hey mark, is that dactory or 3rd party? I want a factory one myself, lol.. But I also want the ding box that locks and unlocks the doors all by itself, lol Quote
Black90Euro Posted April 24, 2004 Report Posted April 24, 2004 Hi Steve third party -- has 4 button fob 1. Locks all doors 2. Unlocks Driver side / second push all four doors 3. Trunk release 4. Panic Horn/lights flash :shock: also when you start the car locks all doors -- key off unlocks driver door did a nice job on the install too ... I love it Quote
jeremy Posted April 26, 2004 Report Posted April 26, 2004 did anyone claim that cutty key fob.... Quote

Not really-- you can always isolate the remote start circut and not wire it. Its really a whole hell of a lot easier to wire it WITHOUT the remote start wires. I did it. Quote
gtphill Posted April 26, 2004 Report Posted April 26, 2004 Has anyone tried the key fobs from http://www.keylessride.com? I had my final key fob stolen last year. I have a '92 Regal, and the oldest year they offer is a 93. I am thinking about buying it to see if it will work. I presume I can return it if need be. Any feedback on these folks is appreciated!

GnatGoSplat Posted April 26, 2004 Report Posted April 26, 2004 All first gen W-bodies use the same key fobs so 89-96 should be the same. That place charges $44+6 shipping!!! You can buy them from Ebay for 1/5th the price! Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted April 26, 2004 Report Posted April 26, 2004 i have probably at least 4-5 of them. just swipe them from cars in the j/y...that's what i do. Quote

Its really a whole hell of a lot easier to wire it WITHOUT the remote start wires. I did it. But if I went through the steps to go in there I'd do it right. I've done enough remote starts that it doesn't take me much extra time at all, the main PITA is running the wires to the ign module, musthavemuzk can vouch for that..... Quote
supreme_style21 Posted April 27, 2004 Report Posted April 27, 2004 Justin? Remote? If not, 93RegalGS is up.. then Jeremy. You'll have to give me a week or so to unpack everything.. everything is all packed up and ready to move later this week. Quote
