remote key module

[sharks vs commodore]

just wanting some information on where to locate the remote key module sun loader sensor all i know is that it sits in the middle of the dash and how easy is it to get out thanks.

You have to remove the two trims either side of the sensor, a screw at the far ends and the rest is clipped in. I can't remember if there are screws holding the sensor in or not but it was not difficult when I did it.

Hi
Take of the vents at end of dash first. 3 screws each end. Then 1 for each trim that sits on top of dash. The screw that holds the top trim on is located behind the end pieces. The top trim then clips in.
The sensor just clips in, but does have a wiring connector.
I've added a photo & circled in red which screw to remove to remove top trim. You have to remove dash end pieces to be able to see this screw first.
Click on photo, will open new window, with enlarged view.
Hope you can understand, & l hope this helps.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the vents. It's been a while and I couldn't be bothered to go out and have a look.

Hi Guys just want to know is there different codes for them or are they the same thanks

you may be chasing the wrong fault
the receiver is just that
it receives the signal from the remote fob and sends it to the BCM
it the code is correct the BCM unlocks/locks the doors/boot and disables the theft deterrent
what fault are you trying to diagnose
if you have already diagnosed it to a faulty receiver sorry
they are not coded

Hi central locking is not unlocking by the key head have replaced the key head with a new one still not working replaced bcm euc checked all the stuff in doors checked all the fuses so the last thing i can of is the remote key module sun loader as i cannot came up with anything else hope this makes sense any other ideas would be helpful and the key has been programmed thanks

you need to get a tech 2 on it and see if the car is seeing the remote signal
and energise door locks
where in vic are you
is the bcm the original to the car
was the remote copied off of a faulty remote or programmed to the key code
did the central locking ever work
does it still have vats enabled in ecu
what car is this
what happens if you push door snib button down, do all doors lock
and if you lift snib button do all doors unlock

near ballarat bcm is a new one brought from holden in geelong it was programmed from the key code central locking was working perfect until a new windscreen was put in it is a 2000 vt commodore when you push the snib button down all the locks and then when you push it back up they all unlock and what are vats in the ecu and what do they do thanks ken

okay the picture is a lot clearer now
i would say you are on the right track with the receiver either unplugged or damaged
vats is the security code in the ecu that immobilises car if keyfob signal is incorrect
