Where to find my remote starter "box"
Hi,
My starter remote control is no longer working. I need to find the brand of my remote starter system so I can have the remote control replaced. It's not written on my remote control. I need to find the "box" (I don't know the exact term used), maybe I can find the brand name there. I own a Toyota Corolla 2000 (American/Canadian version). I looked inside the hood, did seem to find it there. Can it be under the dash (near the fuse box inside the car cabin)? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Thomas |

Did it slowly get worse and worse over time, or did it suddenly stop working just after you dropped it in the toilet? > Can it be under the dash (near the fuse box inside the car cabin)? Yes. It also "can" be anywhere else between the front and back bumpers. |

Where to find my remote starter "box"
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. One of the buttons of the remote is jammed; it's stuck as "pressed" (I couldn't fix it even if I opened by remote casing). So I removed the battery instead so it won't start my engine everytime I come near my car. I'll take a look under the panel/dash and try to find the receiver there. Thanks, Thomas MasterBlaster wrote: > "thomas" wrote > > > My starter remote control is no longer working. > > Have you tried changing the little battery inside it? > > > I need to find the brand of my remote starter system so I can have > > the remote control replaced. > > Did it slowly get worse and worse over time, or did it suddenly stop > working just after you dropped it in the toilet? > > > Can it be under the dash (near the fuse box inside the car cabin)? > > Yes.

There should be an FCC ID on the remote. You can cross reference it from
the fcc.gov website to find out who the manufacturer is. |
