Hi all,

I have a CompuStar 2W900FMR alarm and recently after my car battery died the remote is acting up, when i arm the car the remote doesnt show that its locked and the same goes for anything else, it looks like its out of sync. I changed the remote battery and nothing, still the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this problem before i contact the dealer?

Thanks

 

Do you have a manual for the alarm??

If so, it will list instructions on reprogramming transmitters for the alarm... I would go through and try that..

If you dont have the alarm, I guess you could call the dealer.. I would just try to find the instructions online for reprogramming though- especially since you know what model you have !!!

 

with the key and the remote in hand, turn your key for 5X within a 7 sec period, on/off-on/off between acc and on. once you have done the step correctly, the parking lights will flash once. immediately after the 5th on/off and within the 7 sec time frame, press the I button of your remote. confirmation of a successful programming of your remote is the parking light will flash once. if it flashes twice, it means the programming was unsuccessful or you are past the 7 sec time frame. practice it in your mind before actually doing the steps.

 

dont forget to do both remotes at the same time or one will be programmed and the other wont

 

I'll try that tonight and let you know if that worked.

Thanks a lot.

 

i tried the acc-on method that you mentioned and my remote still doesnt show anything when i lock the doors, i hear the doors lock and the alarm is on, but the remote doesnt show the lock, it shows that its unlocked. I guess i have to contact the dealer and see what he says.

Thanks for your help.

 

I called my dealer and he said to bring the remote in and he'll send it for repair, it took 2 weeks to get it back, when i picked it up the remote worked, when i got home and tried it again, its not working. I have the alarm for a year and i dont drive the car that much anywayz, 3-4 time a month. and the alarm remote is broken, very dissapointed in compustar. I guess i gotta pay for a new remote cause the warranty is only for 1 year.
