Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Cars / February 20071997 Avalon Keyless remote
I have a 1997 Avalon XLS with the factory installed keyless entry system. I bought this car as a replacement for a totaled 1996 Avalon XLS. The '97 came with no keyless remote. I figured I could use the remotes from the '96. The alarm system appears to be the same on both cars. Just a flashing red light near the radio. The remote model FCC ID GQ43VT7T. Does anyone have any info on how to program this remote? Any help you could provide would be appreciated. The dealer wants 50 bucks to do the programming. Thanks John Galt >I have a 1997 Avalon XLS with the factory installed keyless entry system. > I bought this car as a replacement for a totaled 1996 Avalon XLS.

There was a series of posts on programming remotes a few months back in this NG. As I recall, you need to do a real chicken dance (hitting the buttons, openning/closing the door, inserting key twice, etc.) Try a Google groups search... Dan'l. Yes I am sure it is a "chicken dance". I have looked thru Google and I simply cannot find the correct chicken dance for a 1997. I though maybe some guru Toyota Tech would be here and give me the goods.

If you join the Yahoo Group Toyotas_Only, you can access a "chicken dance" file for the '04 Avalon remote, which may *possibly* work... http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Toyotas_Only/ I am a moderator at Toyotas_Only. If you join and request it, I can see if I can get instructions for the '97. You can get it yourself at http://techinfo.toyota.com, but it'll cost you $10 (one-day subscription) to do it. That site is run by Toyota, not by Yahoo.  SignatureTeGGeR? How to find anything on the Internet: www.google.com or in Usenet Groups: www.groups.google.com Google is your friend. Learn how to use it. Thanks Tegger I did join that group last night. My member ship is pending. Thanks Johns Galt >> I have a 1997 Avalon XLS with the factory installed keyless entry >> system.

John Galt, check the Yahoo group. The programming instructions are posted in a reply to your request message. I'll be adding it permanently to the Files section eventually. SignatureTeGGeR?

I will give it a try over the weekend and report back. I do appreciate your effort. JG >> No Problem. >> I just appreciate your help.

Remove key from ignition 2. Locate bulb failure warning module in truck near left trunk hinge and disconnect electrical connector. 3. Jump pins 2 & 10 of connector with short wire or paper clip 4. Door locks will cycle 5. Press any button on remote keyless entry entry transmitter 6. Door locks will cycle 7. Repeat steps 5 & 6 for another transmitter 8. Remove jumper from connector and reconnect to module >Tegger > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >> >> I'll be adding it permanently to the Files section eventually. |
