2003 Tiburon GT Remote Key

Hey, I just bought an 03 Tiburon GT and it did not come with any remote key fobs. I bought one online from eBay and it seems like a brand new key. I took it to Hyundai and they claim they cannot pair it to the computer in my car. Any suggestions on what this may be or what I can do to get the remote working with the car?
Thanks

Seriously don't use the factory alarm system / keyless entry.

While my car was under warranty, the alarm malfunctioned and it wouldn't disarm. The solution was to have the car towed to a dealership and install a new BCM. This would have cost me over $1,000 - and it's not an isolated case.

Don't get a Hyundai key fob. Have an after market alarm / keyless entry installed. It will be cheaper & easier.

    I replaced the BMC for $100.00 bought on ebay and everything is fine now. Took 1/2 to replace

Wow. Maybe there should have been a class action law suit. I had problems too. Both remotes were problematic.

How do I reprogram the key fob on my 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe without having to pay the fee at the dealership?

Well, you basically have only 3 choices:
1. Pay the fee at the dealership
2. Purchase the high-dollar equipment that is required to perform the programming procedure
3. Forget about adding another key fob to tor vehicle.

I have a 2003 Vw Jetta Gt. My keyless entry remote stopped working a couple of days ago. I have 2 so I tried to use the other one but it didn't work either. I changed the batteries in both and I also...

KEY WORDS to search for are

or "keyless+module"

I only got hits back from eBay (& AMAZON)...
which would indicate this is a fairly ROBUST part...
(TYPICALLY: really popular parts = high failure rate).
((in my opinion))


No direct

I have a 2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT, the key fob doesn't work. I got battery checked, they're fine. Any ideas how to make the key fob work? It has an unlock and a lock button.

Place key in ignition, turn but do not crank up the motor and press the lock/unlock buttons to program it for your vehicle. You should see the lights flash on/off confirming a successful link.

My 2004 Tiburon GT will not unlock with the remote. When I use my key in the door my anti-theft goes off and I cannot start my car. I have replaced the remote battery and disconnected the battery terminals...

you can get it to crank but you just won't be able to use the keyless function without going back to the dealer first locate the ecu fuse in the fusebox under the dash, pull it out but don't put it down. Next put your key in the ignition and start turning over the motor, now the car won't crank or push oil through the motor with the ecu deactivated so don't hold it for too long. Now as your turning the motor over, reinsert the ecu fuse. The car will fire to life...you will have essentially reflashed your ecu so people with tuned ecu's beware. Your keyless won't work but hey at least now you can drive to get it fixed...as for the naysayers, yes I tried this on my tiburon and it still works fine so don't worry...good luck

Keyless entry

the remotes can only be programmed through scan tool going through body control module. they will probably charge .5 hour labor time to program

Program a remote key for 03 A6

I have an A4 and did this to re-program my key:

1. used the key to start the car...then turned it off
2. put the key in the driver door (door closed)
3. pressed the lock button on the key fob once
4. turned the key to lock the door.

This is basically the steps in the owners manual, but the car must be started with the key first, and the key must be in the door lock before pressing the lock button.
