| Compatibility of remotes [message #516473] |

Recently, I was forced to replace my 1999 Saturn SW2 wagon with a 2000
Saturn LW1 wagon. I have three keyless remotes that went with my '99,
but the LW1 only has one keyless remote. Can the LW1 receiver be
programmed to recognize the S-series keyless remote? I tried searching
around, but couldn't find any information.
Also, is it true that L-series remotes can only be programmed by the
dealer or a locksmith with a Tech 2 diagnostic tool? The S-series
remote programming procedure was a piece of cake, but it seems that the
L-series isn't the same.
Thanks in advance,
-Alan

The remotes must have a matching GM # located on the back case of the
remote. L and S series typically do need a T2 diag tool to properly program
them. It is a 1 min. procedure for a tech, perhaps you can find a mechanic
with the T2 diag tool who will be nice and do it for a small fee.
