Subarob007 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Can anyone please help me find somewhere reasonable -besides a dealer- to buy an extra alarm remote? and can I program it to work on my car? the dealer wants $120.00 just for the remote. Thanks Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sea#3 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 You might want to check out e-bay for the remote The programing instructions are in the owners manual SEA#3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Auto Zone sells remotes. I don't know cost or availability for the Forester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brus brother Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Are you sure it just doesn't need a battery? My 2000 remotes are still going strong but I too would try a new battery before I convicted the remote. Did the car come with 2 remotes? Is the other one still working or is there the possibility that the receiver unit is not functioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirlono Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Like other have mentioned, try the battery first. If that doesn't work, the issue may be with the battery terminals. I've opened mine up and have noticed that the battery terminals (the prongs that secure the battery holder to the circuit board) come loose after years of abuse. I've resoldered each of my remotes and they now work fine. Be careful not to get too much heat into the board - you just want enough to get the solder good and melted.
