Well, I got my remote cloned, I have the orig. red and two black spares. Everything seemed fine till I tried the first black one, a few presses and nothing - then it unlocked, locked and now the alarm is fully going off and there is no stopping it - I can lock and unlock but it keeps ringing and flashing the lights no matter what remote I use - I have disconnected and re-connected the battery - just keeps right on ringing. Please tell me there is a solution here.
Make sure both hoods are fully closed. Doors and all that stuff. One of the door/hood sensors might be bad telling the computer it's not fully closed. My 2 cents.
OK, I got it. somehow the thing got into a panic mode, I held the transmitter button down and eventually it stopped.
My car came with only the red remote. Can I have this cloned? Hate that I have just one remote (and one key).
Yes, I had the exact same scenario. I had my remotes done by gobble, I bought a new one an he had on to sell me as well so now I have three, I also bought a second spare key and third which is an Enzo replica. It is important to note that since it is a rolling code system, the clones will not work until you press the button sometimes up to a hundred or more times to get it in sync. I finally feel secure with the car now since I do not have the PIN.
Gobble is a member so the link to pm him is in the member list - you might want to read some of the previous cloning threads to understand whats proposed
You can look up the cloning threads in the technical section. I have nothing but great things to say about Mark (Gobble) - he is fantastic to deal with - a true gentleman! One of my major concerns with the car has now been solved! Thanks Mark!!!
This may be a silly question but did all 355s come with a remote? All I got was 1 key and that's it. Is there a way to get remotes or am SOL because I do not have an original one?
Yes - if you do not have a remote how exactly do you start the car ? Every other 355 needs to have the immobiliser/alarm disarmed using the separate fob
Guys, ONLY 96+ needs a remote - if you have an early 2.7 car then the remote is only for the keyless entry, not the immobilizer. On a side note, now that I have a spare remote - I could actually add a remote starter to the car...
