So you know how some Montero Sports have a red car alarm light on the left part of the dash? Well, mine doesn't have one. Does that mean that I cannot program my Monty with the keyless entry? I saw in the DIY section a post about how to program a keyless entry and I've always wanted one, so I bought one off autotransponder.com. The problem is. It won't program. And based off the instructions in the DIY, I'm doing it 100% correct. BTW the instructions are the same that came with the keyless remote from autotransponder.com So I am coming to the conclusion that my Monty needs to have the factory security system in order to use the keyless remote. I guess I could always buy aftermarket.....  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greg |

Really??? I haven't tried the hazard switch. I was trying the "turn the ignition to ACC and back 3 times within 10 seconds". I'll try the harzard switch and let you know. Thanks for the tip.

Turning the ignition switch will work on vehicles with the code alarm and also for the Diamante's

I have an '03 with no dash light.
Bought a remote on ebay (I think I was an eclipse remote).
Followed the instructions on here which are the same ones you mentioned (turn of and on three times, press the button, etc).
It was a serious pain in the *** to get it to work. I probably spent an hour and a half out there trying to get it to work, but it did work.
I think my main problem was a bad connection on the jumper.
Eventually, I bent the jumper ends over so that it was doubled up at both ends, this seemed to make a better connection.
Hope this helps.

Update: I went to my local Mitsu dealership and told them to program a keyless entry for me. They tried and failed. They think that there might be a short somewhere that won't allow it to program. They said they could find the problem, but it would take a while. I had already given them an hour and didn't have any more time to give that day so I left. I'll probably have them try again when I get my T-belt service done there.
