remote locking/alarm
« on: January 23, 2009, 10:09:13 AM »
I have just bought a 1996 2.5td xj, and it didn't come with any key fobs, just a key for the doors and one for the fuel cap (i think)  but above the rear view mirror is a little black dome that looks like it is to do with the remote locking gizmos..   I had a quick look through the owners manual and it mentions the remote but not in any great detail.  Did this model come with them as standard or was it an optional extra etc...

Cheers,
Joel.

It will have come with one infra red remote. If you can get hold of one, they are user programmable.

I brought one of these

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-Jeep ... 0026615452

It's an IR remote which you aim at the black dome.
It doesn't work the immobiliser  fitted to my xj but does work the locks.

Price has gone up though only cost me £20 delivered.
