    You probably have a bad connection. I have three and they all work great.

      I was considering getting this but ended up getting this system instead:


      All keyless entry systems use the same type of wiring, you don't have to connect everything so that one will work fine

      $20 more but a better looking remote and a more reputable brand, well worth it in my opinion

          pictures aren't really needed its pretty self explanatory:

          Car Wire -- Keyless Wire -- Function
          Brown -- Black -- Ground
          Red -- Red -- 12V
          Green/Black -- Green -- Lock
          Green/Purple -- Blue -- Unlock

          The brown, green/black, & green/purple wires are behind the panel in the trunk behind the trunk key hole, the red wire is on the drivers side trunk panel connected to the antenna

          You should be able to complete this in 20 minutes if you have no experience at all, 10 minutes if you are familiar with this stuff

          its super easy

              Any models that have remotes look better than soap bar leftover? Maybe like old DEI rectangular 2 button style?

              Thanks.

                        I did this a few days ago and made being late for my classes so much easier! I didn't have to fiddle with the locks!

                        Thanks, Omega!

                                Never bought one. And yes, I am quite ripe :)

                                Any good kits out there that people are using? Still looking to do the alarm/keyless thing.
