Bf Remote

How do I program a new romote to the car?

[Ralph Wiggum]

"Sit in the car with the doors closed

Turn the ignition to the ACC postition and press the rear demist button 3 times, within 5 seconds.
You then press a button on the first remote to be trained , the door locks will cycle.
Then press a button on the 2nd to be trained and the door locks will cycle again.
Repeat this step for the the rest of the remotes to be trained to the car.
The first keypad trained will result in one door lock cycle, the second will result in 2 door lock cycles, and so on.
There is a limit of 8 remotes per car.
Turn the ignition to the OFF position to exit the learning mode.
Your remotes are now programmed to your car."

Ralph is that the same procedure for the BA as well ?

[Ralph Wiggum]

Thanks brother.

I've heard it can muck up the process if you don't let the locks fully finish cycling before you turn it off. I've never been game to try it myself, but my recommendation is to let the car do it's thing before you turn it off when you're done

when I did mine in my ba xr6T the other week I did the whole 3 times in 5 seconds, but did not work, tried it 5 times, I found that on mine the demised needed pushing 3 times within like 1-2 seconds.
