[daazndood]

hey guys. when i bought my car used, it only came with 1 remote, and i think i need another one for back up. its the factory keyless entry that came from toyota. is there a way i can get another remote?

also, the remote has 2 buttons. one button is to open/close the locks, in which is beeps. what does the other button do? it doesnt do anything on mines.

btw its a 99 gt.

Well im not sure if it's the same, but when i got another factory remote for my volvo (from ebay) i had to go the a dealer and have them program it to work with my system for like $60.

[daazndood]

oh **** thats expensive

volvo keys cost like $70ish for the older ones with out chips.....they were inversly cut or something...


volvo = $$$

edit: go to toyota and ask about another remote, if its a oem alarm/door lock thing u should beable to get one from them.

dont want to hijack the thread or anything but i was wondering what does that second button on the remote do??? its driving me crazy!!

[daazndood]

yea it dont work on mines either! i keep pressing it, and the led light lights up, but nothing is happening.

and i need more remotes.

my remote says "clifford" I don't know if it's stock or aftermarket. it has two buttons, and same deal, only the left does anything (when it wants to... other times it just decides to stop working, and I get locked out of my car cause if I try to get in with the key, it sets off the alarm and I can't start the car.)

haha the remote my aunt has for her Camry says Ford on it haha.

Ebay is the best way to buy them. I think I got one for $40 for my car, an exact replacement for the one that came with the car. Mine only has one button. Press once to lock, once to unlock. Its a little more simple than some of these new remotes (1 button for lock, 1 for unlock, 1 for panic, 1 for open trunk, 1 for heating your latte, etc.)

Don't let them convince you that the dealer needs to program them. it takes like 30 seconds to do it your self, all you have to do is press a simple button on the reciever unit.

hey, while I was in my auto class today I went on the computer and looked up how to program the remote on Alldata. It said you just push the "program" button on the ECU (which it said was located beneath the drivers seat) and then a light should flash on your remote and you just push one of the two buttons within 5 seconds and that button will be programmed. it also said you could use the second button to program another toyota if you wanted to so that the remote could control two cars... hope that helps

Ok. But i am just wanting to know how to reprogram a OEM remote. Not one that comes with a rom.

[zfjohnson07]

yeah i have no idea what this button does either!
When I first bought the car, it use to set off the alarm if I held it down for a few seconds, but it doesnt do anything anymore. =(

It's for if you have the remote programmed to a second VIP-equipped vehicle; it acts as the control for the other vehicle. IE. top button for your Celica and the bottom button for a Tundra.

IIRC...I have the manual around here somewhere.

[96stgreendemon]

go to ebay type in keyless for 6th gen celica there is one that will pop up, its the same as the one i had before on my infiniti
