(T) remote central locking

bircia11 · 09-02-2006

ok got a stilo 52 plate but no remote key fob what are the chances of getting a blank key having it cut and copied from old key or would a genuine Fiat remote central door locking kit made by META alarms. that turns your factory fit cental locking into a one touch remote control operation.
work on the stilo it consists of a relay with areial and fobs that plugs into fuse box to replace origanal relay for central locking?
your thoughts please o wise ones

The remote control central locking system is integrated into the Body Computer from what I understand, all UK Stilo's have remote locking so you'll need to go to FIAT and get an original remote. Those kits you mentioned are not compatible with the Stilo.

if you want an alarm get a genuine fiat 1 then get a new central loking key as well then you dnt need a fob because the alarm runs off the remot key. wel i think thats rite

bircia11 · 10-02-2006

yes im not sure if the car has alarm already when you lock doors you get the red light flashing fron the door pin so the only way to do is to get a key?

Did the car only come with a Single key ?

Just that all stilo's have remote Central locking as standard, if if you only have one key the the original remote key must of been lost by the previous owners.

The Red light in the door will come on, even with no alarm fitted. It is there to inform that the imobiliser is at least enabled on none alarm models.
Also if you can stick stuff into a space above the front interior light I believe that means there is no alarm.

bircia11 · 10-02-2006

yes theres room to place things above interior light

Hence you have no alarm, but have remote central locking fitted, and need to go to FIAT to get the original key for it to work!

I expect you may need ID to order it; best phone in advance.

Yes my willing victim come to us.......dont forget your chequebook

Key fob £42,programming £20....dont forget to bring I.D./proof car is yours so codes can be obtained via ISR.If you want the indicators to flash when locked/unlocked then say so beforehand!

bircia11 · 10-02-2006

thats nearly the price of getting the relay earlier mentiond
cheap as chips,so all i need is cash old key and id etc

T14086 · 10-02-2006

Did one yesterday....seen the bill,it was £62+vat,alot of dealers will however charge you standard one hour for process so check first as not doubt varies.

However if you want to pay us more your welcome to

bircia11 · 10-02-2006

will look into that is it also possable to get a red key before the blue one goes kapput

Rich · 11-02-2006

No need, Stilo's don't use the red key, each key gets programmed into the Body Computer instead now.

Like T14086 says, if you want the car reprogrammed so the inidcators flash when you lock/unlock the car they can do it whilst they've got the codes from the ISR to hand; if you decide to do it later, you'll no doubt have to pay again!

bircia11 · 13-02-2006
