Default Ke-less Entry

hey guys I'm just wondering how to remove the key-less entry receiver from my 96 sport. i know that the cover comes off and that the board is under that but i dont know if there is any risks in disconnecting the wires. can anyone help me with this? my reason for removing this is because i don't have the remote for it and i would like to mount my CB there. Thanks a lot everyone.

I don't have an overhead console, but mine is in my domelight pod. It stopped working years ago, so I unplugged it.

Was there any side effects?

There SHOULD not be any negative effects from unplugging it. I have mine unplugged right now, as I am in the process of re-doing the headliner, so the overhead console is out. I'd say unplug it and start it up, only way to be sure.

You know that you can buy new remotes for those don't you?

No nothing happened. It didn't work all the time anyhow. I can still plug it back in, and put a batteryin the remote ( it lives under the back seat ).

Yeah I know I can get one but I wouldn't use it anyway so it doesn't matter that much to me

I got one for my 98 from these guys. Took it to a locksmith who programmed it for $24 in 5 minutes. Dealer wanted $85 and claimed they were the only one's who could do it.

If you have an earlier model, you may be able to program it yourself.
