Remote keyless system
I hope this is in the correct section. I bought a 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ (Not Grand). It has the little bubble on the roof for the keyless sensor, but i don't have the remote. How do i go about buying one. I have seen them on ebay but they all say for Grand Cherokee. Does the Jeep and Grand use the same keyless remote? I am scared i will end up buying the wrong one. Could someone steer me in the right direction on purchasing the correct one, model number websites etc and any other information. I will have to order it online as i am not in the USA.
Thanks to anyone in advance who can give me the correct information.
Cheers

This is the remote entry, infra red system.
Clicker is part # 56009031
Used in XJ 1991-1996
ZJ 1991-1996
Programming is done yourself and only takes a minute or two. Instructions in owners manual. System can support up to 4 remote entry clickers.

FYI, the infra red remote needs to be very close to vehicle and pointed at receiver to function. Unlike RF type that can be triggered from a distance and in any direction. Still better than using a key however.

Another character trait of the XJ! I put up with it because it is easier than dealing with the key, and then having to hit the unlock switch for the remaining doors and hatch. Just have to find that sweet spot where it works best, and window tint doesn't help any. ROFL
Find a used one, likely still $50 unless you can find one from a forum member.
1997+ require dealer programming.
