Remote Entry - 95 Grand Cherokee
Hey There, I recently bought a 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee, but it didn't
come with a remote key entry. I am just wondering if I can buy some
remote from eBay.Can anyone please advice if this will work?
I didn't get a user manual, so I am completely lost.

Your friendly neighborhood Jeep dealer will have the remote entry key
and can tell you how to program it.
WARNING! Jeep is VERY proud of that thing and the price reflects that
pride! They were around $100 about 10 years ago.... <sigh>

By remote key entry I assume you are talking about the keyfob.
To determine if you have an alarm system simply open the door,
press Lock, and close the door. A dash security light should flash.
Or you can take your VIN to a dealership and have them pull the
buildsheet (actually that is a very good idea) That will tell you
if there are any recalls that are missing.
You could drop a message to
http://www.factorykeylessremotes.com...INDREMOTE.html
This is the remote.
http://www.keylessride.com/order/cho...Grand+Cherokee
They have a 59$ knockoff
No experience with either site.
95 was an iffy year for remote programming. Prior to that it was very simple.
Been a while. I went with an aftermarket system about one week off the showroom
floor. :) RF does a better job than IR and you can get more goodies (including
remote alarm monitor/windows/remote start) For the price of a couple new fobs
you might be better off with an aftermarket system.
I'd suggest checking aftermarket first, then looking for new fobs.
IIRC, the method was. Open door, press lock, put key in ignition
and turn to on, press the unlock on the fob till the door unlocks
(several seconds), turn the key off. (something like that.)
The key was needed to prove you were the owner.

Yes, you can buy them off eBay. They aren't that hard to program.
The range on them isn't anything to write home about even if you aim
them at that little bubble in the console that is the sensor. Darned
switches are somewhat fragile, they tend to crack at the poorly
reinforced solder joints. Easy to fix if you have a good electronics
soldering iron--haven't tried silvered epoxy yet.
You can buy owners manuals at www.techauthority.com. If you know which
end of a left handed monkey wrench makes the best beer can opener you
might also want to pick up the Factory Service Manual and Body
Diagnostic Manual.
