Default Keyless Entry

Will any Chevy key less entry remote work on a 95 or does it have to be the specific PKE remote? Also would the PKE remotes from 97 or 98 work?

Thanks
Tony

It has to be the C4 specific PKE remote.
No other system works like the one in the C4.

100% correct

Before you buy one test the receiver in your car by performing the fob programming procedure (in the owners manual) and make sure it operates the way it should up until you are supposed to bring the fob in range. No point buying one if the receiver is not working.

You don't have to get PKE.....you could also use VKE...but you'd have to push a button...

It's listed in the owners manual.
If you don't have one, you can download a pdf version for your '95 here.
