Greetings,
Thought I had looked everywhere, but just found jackintheboxsters post about 20 down, it may help.
2001 Boxster S, three button remote, good battery.
No internal water damage.
Over the last 6 months, I've gotten an intermittent double chirp when locking with the remote indicating a fault (every fourth or fifth time I locked the car with the remote).
It finally got the point the remote wouldn't lock or unlock the doors or trunks.
An indie ran the codes and replaced a faulty passenger door lock.
Now, the remote still doesn't lock or unlock the car, but all three buttons will illuminate the light, no chirps.
Shop says that either the circuit board is bad or the car needs to relearn the key.
I've been through the "new key" shakedown at the dealer.
I have not used a magnifying glass to look at the circuit board in the remote.
I've tried all the incantations found on the internet and used GPS to pray toward Zuffenhausen.
I will not be close to the car again until Monday afternoon.
Questions:
Is there a way to test remote output?
Will a dealer usually give you the immobilizer code for your car (first 7-8 numbers are the key-learn number).
Any other troubleshooting ideas before purchasing a new key head?
Thanks in advance!
