I have a 2000 sport that I just put a ohc in out of a 98 or 99 grand cherokee. I matched up wire for wire from my sport and have everything working somewhat.My problem it that now I cant get my key fob to work. Any ideas???

 

You need to put the brain for your old keyless entry in it.

 

where would that be at? could i have my key fob linked to the new one?

 

i need help please

 

Nobody has any help for me???

 

Thr brain for it is in the old over head light. The only computer board up top. Swap the two and your good to go

 

Could I just have the remote set to the new board?? I though the other light and board out not knowing that I need it.

 

well that sucks.

the answer is pretty much no, if the console is from a '97-'98. you have to get the earlier keyless remotes for it, as they are the only ones that work with it. they have far shorter of a range of operation, and are pretty ugly.

if it's from a '99-01, you probably can have it reprogrammed. but you have to take it to a dealer to do it, and it's $50 or more to do it.

I'd go to a junk yard, get the reciever from a '99-01, and install it, just to be perfectly sure.
