95 vette PKE system
On the 1995 vette, was the Passive Keyless Entry System (PKE) standard or was it an option? The owners manual gives me the impression that it was standard. I recently purchased a 95 vette and the previous owner said it was an option, and thus no keychain transmitters.

Sorry to hijack the thread, is there a document r write up somewhere that details troubleshooting the PKE? I bought a new fob and it worked for two weeks then stopped. Now if i press the fob button it unlocks the passenger side door but not the drivers side.

Hold down the door button for 5 secs or so & you shud hear the locks cycle.
You can choose which door (s) will open when in the active mode by putting the ignition key in the ignition, donot turn on..hold down the door button to select the doors. Takes a little bit of foolin around to get the right sequence.
You turn the system on or off by holding down the door button till the locks cycle. That way if your working around the car it won't keep locking & unlocking.

Key Fob
Enter the part # 88960923 at gmpartsdirect and the fob comes up. Also there is one on ebay at item # 160198770840, now bid at $52 NR. The ebay vulchers try to raise it up. Check the ones in gmpartsdirect 1st. The program instructions are in your Owners Manual and are very easy. Don't buy them from somebody. The gmpartsdirect one comes with the instructions in the package.

My 95 didn't come with the key fob either. I got mine through the stealership and the system works great. It chews through batteries though, but all in all, I like the way it operates. Turn the system off when at a car show or working around it. It'll drive you nuts.

Donivan3,
one thought before buying a FOB.
Check the system to assure it works.
Read the owner's manual and follow the programming procedure to assure it gets to the step where you would depress the buttons on the FOB.
This way, if the system is bad, it should not go into the programming mode, so you could save yourself some $'s...
