850 GLT Alarmed and NOT startable CATCH22` 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ron on  Thu Dec 26 00:00 CST 2002 [RELATED]

The alarm system should be armed/disarmed by cycling the key in the LF door even if the remotes are inop. Try locking, unlocking the LF door with the key.

The remotes might need to be reprogrammed if they don't work after changing batteries. On your car, that's very easy. Just cycle the ignition key on/off 5Xs and on the 5th time, when the ignition's on (within 10 seconds) press lock on one remote, unlock on the other. If you only have 1 remote, press lock, then unlock on the one remote instead. If it programmed, it should work with the ignition key removed from the ignition switch.
