Remote Locking Help Needed

[pas8]

hello,

just tried getting our new paseo and found out the loud way the key does not disable the alarm.

We only have one transmitter unit,rang a toyota dealer and they want 150 pounds for a new one, just want one as a spare

are there any alternatives?

thanks

hi ya,

Loud those alarms aren't they, mine went off a little while ago, not sure what set it off tho but was in daylight on my drive!! Lol.

As far as i know there are no ways to get around the £150 bill!! Unfortunatly, i think that as its a specific Toyota part and being security there is no way aroud the bill.

But as i've always said i'd rather pay £150 than lose my car to a theif!!!

yeah i have the same prob, ive been quoted £120 for the remote from toyota so shop around, dont get the immobilser key from them tho, a chain store key cutting place did mine with an immobiliser code for £20

If you've got Gold membership, you could get discount!!

£150!!!

I paid £58 a few weeks ago, I do work in the trade and know they gave me a discount, but surely not that much.

Is that to get the fob coded as well?

[pas8]

yes that is also to get the fob coded, 55 for fob 65 for coding all plus vat!

bit steep for something which should not take long

I know how to code the key fob, if you wanna have a try. Not sure if it adds units or just recodes to the new one, but it'll save you a bit of money

If you wanna give it a try, let me know and I'll PM you as don't want it on a public forum really

Sound like a lot of lolly. :(

Mine came with 2 but neither seem to work all that well and i have put new baterys in each. Locking is ok but unlocking is a pain in the *****. It sometimes taes over a min to get the dam door open. :censor: NOT good when its P$£"ing down with rain. Any thoughts?

[paseoGT4]

yeah man mine does the same thing, esp in the rain

I think it must be through wear and tear on the contacts inside as same happened with mine, but once I replaced the fob it was fine
