Adding Keyless Entry? (1990 GXE)

HuPeRcHiLd · Apr 14th, 2008, 02:20 AM

My Maxima, like near all Maxima's has power everything (windows, locks etc) and it's an automatic. I really want keyless entry on it.

What is the best option for me? Is there a keyless entry system that I can get from the dealership? Should I just install a aftermarket keyless entry/remote starter? Any help on this would be greatly appreciate.

Thanks

Well, I already have the keypad in the door handle, but I have not gotten it to work (only tried 5 times). I wasn't sure if I was entering the door code properly though. Is there a certain technique? Is there a way to reset the code to a default number? What is the default number?

I'm not as interested in the keypad.....I just don't want to fumble for the keys every time I get to the door.

there is a master reset code (different for each car) that will allow you to change the code.
does your key pad light up / beep at you?
and adding aftermarket remote keyless entry is your ONLY option if you want a remote. The factory did not install one on the 3rd gen (dealer did)

No my keypad doesn't do anything. Does that mean it's buggered? Is there anyway to repair it?

you may need a new keypad for it to work.
does either side function?
personally I'd install a remote one. much cheaper and easier.
