my remote is starting to show signs of severe wear... so i found a few up for bid on ebay... those can be reprogrammed that easily at a dealership?? and if so... is it possible to get the newer CL remotes reprogrammed to work on my '98 2.3?? i just like how the new ones look. thanks!

 

I don't think that they will work, but you can always just swap cases.

 

Yup I agree, thats what i'm gonna do when I get home after fixing my HID's. I heard from the other members its time consuming but well worth it. So i'm giving it a shot.

 

1. Turn the ignition switch on (II on the ignition)<BR>
2. W/in 1-4sec, push the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit. (Just at the steering wheel is fine)<BR>
3. W/in 1-4sec, turn the ignition switch off<BR>
4. W/in 1-4sec, turn the ignition switch on(II)<BR>
5. W/in 1-4, push the transmitter lock or unlock button w/ the transmitter aimed at the receiver again.<BR>
6. W/in 1-4sec, turn the ign. switch off<BR>
7. W/in 4sec, turn the ignition switch On(II)<BR>
8. w/in 1-4sec, push the transmitter lock or unlock again.<BR>
9. w/in 4 sec, turn the ign off<BR>
10. w/in 4 sec, turn the ign ON<BR>
11. W/in 1-4, push the transmitter again<BR>
12. Confirm you can hear the sound of the door actuators. W/in 1-4sec, push the trans lock or unlock button again.<BR>
13. W/in 10sec, aim the transmitters (up to three) whose codes you want to store at the receiver, and press the transmitter lock or unlock buttons. Confirm that you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators after each transmitter code is stored.<BR>
14. Turn the ignition switch off, and pull out the key.<BR>
15. Confirm proper operation with the new codes<BR>
