Does the key you have have a remote built into it?

Try locking and unlocking with the key in the driver's door. Does it lock and unlock all the other doors? (you may have to turn it to the unlock position twice).

 

You can enter the default EKA code of 1515 using the procedure in the following post:

But it will only work in the driver's door lock is working right.

 

The remote is in the key. The remote portion of the key stopped working about a month prior to me taking it to the shop for repairs. per DiscoMike I have tried the lock/unlock X 3 to try and reset the alarm, no go. When doing that the key was only locking/unlocking the drivers side door I had key in, it was not controlling any of the other locks. thanks again for any suggestions....

 

Lock the drivers door manually wait 2 min then lock and unlock the doors with the remote entry this will reset it has happened twice to my D2 post other people working on it

 

sorry you need to lock and unlock the door 3 times with keyless entry stopping obsvioulywith unlock then it should start for you .

 

If it's not capable of unlocking the other doors with the key (you may have to turn the key TWICE to unlock all of the other doors), then the driver's door lock isn't sending the signal to the alarm to to disable it. You won't be able to enter the EKA code without that working either.

You probably need a driver's door lock actuator.... but that's just a guess.

Have you tried putting a new battery in the remote?

 

where is the battery in the key? our key is the remote?if you would be willing ill give my number and maybe you can talk me through.im actually renting a car this week until i get this disco started.509-637 5886 or 509 493-1689 anne

 

You pop off the back. In the owners manual it shows this being done with a small screw driver or knife point inserted into a slot that is on the edge of the remote key where the loop to add it to a key ring is. Little flat round battery inside, available from lots of stores.

from the owners manual:

The battery should last for approximately
three years dependent upon use. When the
battery needs replacing it will be apparent
from the following symptoms:
• A gradual deterioration in range and
performance.
• The alarm indicator light in the instrument
panel will flash rapidly for 10 seconds

after the driver’s door is opened.

 

ok, is it possibile to reset the alarm from the key? and yes, the battery was dead! thanks
