Just bought a 2000 XJ from a jeep dealership a few weeks back. they didnt have the original keys (just ordered some OEM Jeep replacement keys) I was wondering if there is any easy, quick way to tell if the jeep had keyless entry from the factory and the previous owner just lost the transponders. i wouldnt even know where to look. and then if it does and i buy transponders, who can set those to the correct frequency? thanks!

 

A dealership can tell you if it came from the factory with it (give them the VIN number and ask for a build sheet) and can also program the transponders for you.

You can buy them on eBay, but they need to be programmed by a dealer if you're starting from scratch.

 

I ordered mine from ikeyless.com, they have the best deal I have seen. The dealer here charges about $50 bucks for setting it up to my vehicles frequency.
