ive tried changin the battery and ive read mah manual and tried pressin the lock/unlock button six times...but mah remote for mah alarm still doesnt work...the red light just stays on forever and nothin happens when i press any buttons...can anybody help me out? i called an acura dealership...and they said they can replace the remote for like 90 bucks...but i dont feel like it...unless its mah only choice...has anybody had this problem before?

 

what I did was hold down the trunk and lock buttons down for a few seconds and it fixed it for me, try that

 

my alarm acts weird all the time.....

 

wtf is mah

 

my, i suppose

 

i put the battery in and it worked...but then a minute later it just stopped workin and that stupid red light just kept stayin on...has anybody had this problem before? i tried holdin the lock and trunk buttons for a while...but nothin happened...any other suggestions? thanx in advance...

 

What exactly is the problem with the remote? Is it not unlocking the doors? or does it just not chirp anymore or beep? cause if it just doent blink or chirp, then you just need to turn on the alarm part. Do do that , just hold down the trunk release and then hold down the lock button at the same time for about 5 seconds. You should see the light on your alarm go on and then off. Try it a couple of times until the alarm function works again.

 

Sounds like you just need to buy a new one

 

the remote just doesnt work at all...the red light stays on forever and doesnt respond to any button pressin...damn i guess i gotta buy a new one unless it just happens to work again

 

yeah i was so unfortunate to have that happen to me as well.....both my transmitters went at the same time too. i tried everything under the sun. then i just bought a new one. they are a dime a dozen on ebay. oh and BTW...pressing and holding the lock and trunk button toggles between audible and silent modes. its just a prefernce. It still arms the alarm when you lock the car, even from the door button.

 

Try reprograming the remote here are the instructions

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>


my alarm is being weird my lock button works only 1 out of 20 times i press it

 

thanx...but it still doesnt work...unless i did it wrong...that damn red light is still on...what does that mean (besides the remote wont work)? im guessin that its not programmed? well im gon keep tryin to program it...

 

how do i get the remote to stop chirping when i press lock and unlock? i hate that. it used to be silent i dont know how to get it back to silent mode??? help please

 

hold down the lock button and the trunk button at the same time for a about 3 seconds on the remote until you see the red light flash.

This will switch it between the "chirp" mode and the silent mode.
