remote locking fob not working?
« on: 29 March 2009, 11:34:02 »
when i got the car and the fobs had no batteries in. thanx to the site i now have the batteries and little red lights flashing.

i went and sat in the car put key to position 2 and pressed the buttons on the fob.

when pressing the bigger of the fob buttons the interior light flashed 4 times. this happened a couple of times then i pressed and held the bigger button the light flashed 4 times and then nothing?

no light flashing now and no remote locking?

Sorry, I don't know enough about your system.

Early Omegas (like yours) have IR central locking.  Later ones (from mid 1995 onwards) have more advanced RF central locking.

I meant to add, always point out in your posts that yours is the IR type, else people tend to assume its the later RF type :y
