Daughter home from college for holidays and remote start fob needed replacement. It arrived and not able to program, nothing in the purchase or researching stated that a valet switch was needed to program. Ordered valet switch and after 2 weeks it still had not been delivered. Daughter was to return to campus today so I gave it one more try to figure out. I came across your video and 5 minutes later everything was programmed and buttoned back up. She can now start her car remotely and have a warm and safe car . As a father I greatly appreciate this! Thank you again!
You helped me a ton. I couldn’t find the valet button as I did not have it installed. Knowing which wires to follow me led to me getting my remotes programmed. Thanks so much
You are a life saver for this….bought a used car with no remote but had the system. Installers kept just saying I needed to get a whole new system installed. I got a remote off Amazon and used this video to program it. Paid 20$ instead of 500$!!!
@@randomtech6115Im trying to program the same remote control as shows on the video, my problem is, I don’t have a light on the device, so I don’t even know if is working or not, I’m doing it right now lol
have an old vehicle and while looking for a parasitic voltage drain i find this. someone didn't plug this in and cut many wires. very helpful sir 4 years later
Avital should pay you for this. Great video that helped. My remotes have been flaky for months. Finally replaced them, and after a couple hours of pulling my dash apart, I finally found the box, but no button. Found your video and it worked perfectly. I used a small screwdriver instead of wire. Thanks for the video. Great thinking.
You are awesome K John, lost my key fob,ordered a cheap one from ebay, only to find out i needed to use the valet button.Of course, mine was not installed. i was almost going to give up and go pay money to the shop to have it programmed . thank you!
WOW, THANKS SO MUCH!!! My valet button is missing the button part that pushes in, so it's worthless. I'm going to try to find the part with the brain, & do what you did!!!! So glad you made this!!!
this was sp much help and the only video that helped me pair my new avital remote to the hx plus starter in my 2011 malibe I've watched around 10 videos this one was oerfwct because I didn't have the programming button the other videos were talking about
thank you for sharing your experience…i used a stripped copper wire. i also found that another pair of hands was helpful with holding the fob during the 5 secs (thanks dad). i still may invest in a valet button. thanks again.
Exactly what i needed. If your horn isnt connected youll see one flash when its ready instead of hearing it. My program button was shot so i had to go in with a paperclip but it worked. Thank you.
I connected a "cordless telephone battery connector " same size NO BATTERY just the white connector & wires to short Valet - BLUE port on brain NO horn just blink of LED PERFECT
thank you so much for making this video. i struggled with trying the method of holding lock and unlock for 15 seconds......it never worked. i used this method and everything is working now. Thanks again for this helpful video
Awesome! After fumbling with several online "programming instructions" INCLUDING Avitals installation manual, this worked on replacement fobs for an Avital AviStart 4100 in a 2007 FJ Cruiser!! Lock, unlock and remote start all work! Thanks!
I'm having the same issue with my 05 Chevy Silverado 4x4 show truck. Someone else installed it and no valet button. I'm going to try this on the Avital 4200 remote start.❤
You sir are a God! Thank you so very much for this, our remotes both stopped working, and we did not have the stupid program switch with ours either. You have saved us so much stress and money!
Thanks for this video. It was perfect. I want to ask you a question. My Prius has a key fob that I never need to take out of my pocket as a hand sensor is in the door handle. However, the alarm will be triggered if the Prius fob unlocks the door and it is open. Is there a way for the use of the Prius key fob to turn off the alarm when the unlock button on the Prius fob is pressed and vice versa when the lock button is pressed? Maybe a signal that can be relayed to the Avital? Thanks!
odd my has button but no switch. Randomly all features stopped working. No lock/unlock remote start, or trunk. Really annoying the lazy installer just left the wires and button coiled up next to controller. Thank you this helped. 4103 is functional again.
Hello sir, how’s it going? I came across a wrangler that have that and also a dball, I am so lost lol there is a button on the dball. I’m afraid to press it and hold and something crazy could happen lol. Please excuse me ignorance, I’m slowly trying to figure this out and have a key fob 😃
I was trying to run some wires for a sound system in my dash and i cam across a black box called a “xcrs500m extreme capacity relay” i could tell its not factory by the way it was wired in. I cant really find much information on it. But I assume its a wireless start box. I would like to use a keyfob to warm my truck up in winter. But i have no idea if it works,or if it is what I think it is, or how to use it, and what kind if key fob ill need. Please help- thanks tyler
What if I bought a car that has and alarm system but don’t have a key fob for it ? It’s an older car by the way with an aftermarket alarm that I just randomly came across when installing some wire what can I do to get a new key fob and program it?????? HELLPPPP!!!!!!
Hello. You need to trace wire to find either the brain or something identifying the maker of the alarm and then from there you can research make model and fob.
It took me an hour to finally get it to work. Door must be opened. Turn the key to the run position. This is where you'll see all the warning lights and it is right before turning vehicle fully on. !IMPORTANT! DO NOT TURN CAR ON. Must be in RUN and motor off. Before 5 seconds, with COPPER wire (preferably because it is conductive) touch wire on both metal prongs on alarm. Within the next 5 seconds hold wire nonmetal prongs and then press and hold lock button on the remote until horn beeps and synchs with remote. Side note- I also had to buy a new remote from Amazon. Search replacement Avital 474L Remote Control Transmitter or research which remote works with your Avital system. Good luck my friend
Bonjour j'ai un viper 3105v tout fonctionne mais j'ai pas de son j'ai pense que c'etait la sirene mais en verifiant la sirene marche lorqsue je connecte directement dans la battrie?Pouvez vous m'aider je sais pas koi faire
Ok Here you go. With the wire I created, I touch both metal pieces inside the blue slot. Touch both with the wire to initiate the programming (just touch and come off them) and then immediately hold the wire on them for 5 seconds and then hold the lock on the remote for 5 seconds

What’s the part number on the box all the wires are running from?
Can i programme any other remotes or just the original one....thanks
I was trying to run some wires for a sound system in my dash and i cam across a black box called a “xcrs500m extreme capacity relay” i could tell its not factory by the way it was wired in. I cant really find much information on it. But I assume its a wireless start box. I would like to use a keyfob to warm my truck up in winter.

Hell yeah thanks bro
So your light was solid on at first?
Thanks for watching. No the light was not solid

Worked on my 01 honda crv
What if I bought a car that has and alarm system but don’t have a key fob for it ? It’s an older car by the way with an aftermarket alarm that I just randomly came across when installing some wire what can I do to get a new key fob and program it?????? HELLPPPP!!!!!!
Hello. You need to trace wire to find either the brain or something identifying the maker of the alarm and then from there you can research make model and fob.
Dude sounds like Denzel washington
Thank you!
How do you program the key?
Within 5 seconds I press the valet then hold all I get is a steady light, what am I doing wrong?

Could this be the same for an avital 5303L?

Bonjour Alors, dites-vous que le système d'alarme fonctionne et que la sirène fonctionne mais qu'il n'y a pas de son lorsque l'alarme se déclenche
Yes ,i change the module but i Can program the remote i try to do thé process but nothing i find the valet button
Ok I’m sorry but I’m missing some instructions because your hand covers what exactly your supposed to be doing with the wire😭
Ok Here you go. With the wire I created, I touch both metal pieces inside the blue slot. Touch both with the wire to initiate the programming (just touch and come off them) and then immediately hold the wire on them for 5 seconds and then hold the lock on the remote for 5 seconds
Thanks so much for reaching out to me with additional instructions
What kind of wire do I need ?
wuts a valet button?
Your hand is blocking the view of where you are pushing the wire…
I cannot see where you are pushing the wire into on the module. 😢😢
Would this work with an Avital 3100?
Im not sure
My LED light is just staying on
I have to do this smh
