My 407 key does not work for about 15 seconds in the morning when it is cold.

When cold none of the buttons work. Then after maybe 15 to 30 seconds the car will open. Then fine for the rest of the day.

High resistance in the circuit, it needs to be diagnosed; it could be simply a bad grounding.

1998 Grand Cherokee Laredo.. courtesy lights go off when engine is started.. however when temperatures drop under 30 degrees.. right turns seem to activate them on.. left turns shut them off.. all doors...

The courtesy lights work on a relay/switch to turn the lights off 15 - 30 seconds when the doors are open then closed. If the relay is staying to cold then it cannot heat up to break the circuit to the courtesy lights. I would first try replacing the courtesy light relay and if that fails to solve the problem, the switch may be the faulty candidate.

try some valve medic. get it at the parts store. hydrualic lifters can get dirty and partially collapse. this is no big deal as long as the come back up. and they always do. some thing that you can try at your next oil change. pour a quart of transmission fluid into the engine, run it for 15 minutes, up to operating temp. then change your oil and filter. transmission fluid is a really high detergent oil. it will clean the inside of your engine and all the components. as far as having this fixed I wouldn't

How to program the key for my bmw 750i model 1997 to lock/unlock the door

BMW 7-Series - Key Remote Programming
Three methods to try:
Method 1:
1. Working from within the vehicle and with the doors shut
2. Turn ignition to position 1 and back to off within 5 seconds.
3. Remove the key from ignition and press and hold the unlock button for 15 seconds during this time press the key lock button 3 times within 5 seconds.
4. Release both buttons.
5. Doors will lock and unlock to show correct programming has occurred.

Method 2:
To do this procedure you need to have one working key and one key that needs to be programmed.
1) Get in and close all doors.
2) Turn on the ignition and turn off quickly. (No more than 5 seconds) to start the process. Next action must take place within 30 seconds.
3) Remove the 1st key.
4) Hold the key up near your left shoulder (this is so it is closer to the remote receiver antenna.
5) Hold down the unlock button and press the lock button 3 times. Release the unlock button and the doors lock which confirms the operation.
6) Quickly repeat steps 4 & 5 for key #2 etc.
If it does not work, try doing the keys in opposite order. Key 2 then key 1, vs 1 then 2.

Method 3:
Alternate if you do not have a working remote
1. Turn key to position 1 five times very quickly 2. Remove key 3. Hold unlock button then press lock button 3 times, release unlock button.
4. If you have another key do the same button pressing within 30 seconds 5. Turn on ignition to finalise.
PLEASE NOTE: This programming procedure programs the remote control part of the key. Any transponder chip for the immobiliser (starting of car) will not be programmed and must be done by a specialist.
