There's no name on the module?? There has to be some #'s somewhere, if you can get those I can see what I can dig up.

This is the remote that came with my truck
Well, that one looks pretty aged. There's quite a few models of systems by Prestige that are discontinued with yours being one of them. I would say your best bet is to get a new "better" system.

Now your thinking with your head! The new ones have all kinds of bells and whistles.

It just sucks that it was working great and it seems to have unprogrammed itself. The light on the fob still works its just not sending commands anymore

[Try this]


*To program these selectable features:

1. Start with the programming switch in the OFF position.

2. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.

3. Flip the program switch ON - OFF - ON - OFF - ON - then OFF.

4. Immediately turn the ignition key OFF, then back to ON.

5. Flip the program switch ON - OFF - ON - then OFF.

6. Use button 2 on the transmitter to advance to the feature that you want to change. EXAMPLE - If you need to change

programmable feature number 3, press and release button 2 on the transmitter 3 times in succession. The parking

lights will flash 3 times confirming that selected feature 3 can now be programmed.

7. Use button 1 on the transmitter to change the selection of the programmable feature. If you are not sure what the setting

for any feature is, press button 1 one time, the parking lights will flash once or twice indicating the features setting.

Note: Once you enter the feature programming mode, do not allow more that 15 seconds to pass between steps, or the programming will be terminated.

Sounds like your remote battery is low.

Theres no antenna for the module... I have no clue how it worked before.... Still want it to lock my truck though. Going to take the truck to a guy who installs systems and have him see what he can do for me
