Thread: 97 GRand PRIX GTP locks works but not on remote and bcm wont program

I had this problem also, so I ditched the factory crap and installed a remote start system that included Lock/unlock and trunk. Got it from autozone for $99.

Welcome to GPF.

Ok here's a solution for you.

I had same problem.
There's a receiver under the dash behind the dic.

Pull it out replace it with a different one (junk yard pick n pull cost 7$)

Or buy from someone here for 30 with key.

And it's gonna work perfectly.

After that there's a thread I made about how to get a really good range.
Look at my post you will find it.

It's easier than you think. Good luck.

No. It's behind the display center (the thing that shows if ur door open,trac off etc.

No screws needed. Just pull it. Find my post" how to get 200ft range"

On a side note, you are turning the key backwards towards yourself correct?

I just programmed 2 new key fobs yesterday, and felt like an idiot because I turned the key forward the first two times.
