i have a 96 v6, i assume there the same keyfobs, it tells you how to do it in user manual, because if you press the buttons too many times away from the car it re-sets itself and you have to reprogramme them to the car.

I assume this typr of programming will work with a fob that didnt come with the car, only thing is my user manual is in the car, so unless someone with more knowlege than me (not very hard!) beats me to it, i will post the re programming instructions in the morning, might be worth a try!

A 95 car will be borderline between IR and RF.

Manual states resync procedure for existing RF fobs.

Sorry for the mistake, its a 2.5 v6. There is a red sensor near the sunroof     switch if this is any help

I think the IR ones can't be tech2...  :-/

50/50 chance tunnie, wrong again

Its IR.

The manual should state how to program iirc.

[tunnie]

ahh but i realised my mistake and posted before you told me the answer!

[markyc100]

I have done the reset as stated in the manual but to no avail
