Celica Forums General Discussion General VIP rs3200 security

Here's the deal. I bought my 2000 gts about a month ago, and can't seem to get the remote keyless entry to operate. i didn't have time to have it fixed the night i bought the car, so i figured i could get the programming procedures from a either this website or someplace similar. After looking or a while, i came across the Toyota TSB for programming the remote. I followed the steps accordingly. However, the vehicle will not respond to the remote. After following the steps 3 or 4 times i was still unable to get it to work. This morning, i went out and disconnected the battery while i changed the air filter(about 15-20 min.). I tried to program the remote once again with no success.
Here's is where i could use some help. if anyone on here is a toyota tech or former tech with some good "know-how" for the program procedures, i would love to hear from you. The dealer i bought the car from is about an hour from my home. they are willing to fix the problem free of charge. However, i also work for a car dealer, and my only day off is sunday. Needles to say, they are closed on sunday. That's beside the point. i just want the keyless entry to work, and it would feel pretty good to do it at home.

Are you sure the battery is not dead in the remote?

I have been trying to do the same thing, and i cant quite figure it out. If you get it, please tell me the steps so i can get mine to work as well.

I found these, I hope these help.

RS3200 - Door Lock Selection

RS3200 - Ignition Controlled Auto Lock

RS3200 - Passive Arm/Disarm

Yeah, the battery is new. according to manual it call for a cr2016. i tried that first, and then tried a cr2032 because it seemed to fit tighter. either way, they were both new batteries, and neither worked. i feel lost.

Thanks lostangel. i have seen those procedures before, but they may come in handy for Blackcel. i may just have to make time to get down to the dealer. I may be somehting as simple as a faulty remote. thanks for the help, though!

Sorry this didnt resolve your problem. You should take it to the dealer as you said. My friend had a car that he bought, but the door/alarm didnt work. Turned out his remote was busted.
