Remote central locking not working

09 February 2008, 22:39

My remote central locking fob doesn't work on my MY00 Impreza Wagon. I've replaced the battery, but still no joy.

The battery was in the wrong way round when i replaced it.

Does anyone have any ideas of what i can do to get the fob to work?

Thanks

you'd prob have to open the fob up an have a look see if theres any lose conections an then try solder them back in place!

when you change batteries there is normal a procedure to re program it eg press certain buttons in a certain sequence. that will be all it will be.

is it a sigma alarm the one with the key code pad in side?

Copy pock as the add used to say...

My 99MY Sigma alarm failed this time last year, so maybe its the alarm not the fob - I ended up fitting the later improved one out of a 2003 WRX using advice from the megastar who I cannot name as he was banned from this site. (details available via pm)

If you change batteries it will resynch with no faffing around.

If its never been synched it won't, it needs to be synched, I have the destructions for that at home.
