Keyless entry quit working

[drueg]

Greetings,
The keyless entry (key fob) quit working for my '97 Ranger.
Changed out the fob batteries and still no joy.
Tried my extra one that my wife carries and has worked in the past and still not working.
Looked for any fuses that might be bad, all still ohm out as good and no obvious corrosion.
Tried to reprogram the remotes and the on/off/on/off 8 times it doesn't cycle the locks like it has in the past.
I believe it's a factory system.


Anyone have any other ideas?

TIA
Dan

I believe it's a factory system.

If it won't go into programming mode, a new remote won't code in.

You've checked the fusebox fuses, so a next step would be to check for power at the keyless module itself.

A lot of aftermarket systems mimic the factory appearance and operation (like programming mode). You can run the ID # on the remote on the FCC website, and check if it's a factory system, or which aftermarket system it might be. If aftermarket, it likely has an inline fuse, or possibly a failed wiring connection.

Good luck.

Any idea where to find this keyless module?

Bump. Mine works sometimes and then it doesn't other times.
