Help!!! Keyless Entry Problem!

So yah... my keyless entry does not work at all anymore... just stopped working completely.. I have an 05 MR with 26k on it.. It has not been working for about 12k miles.. It is really annoying me now... I have the Apexi-Turbo Timer with plug and play ignition harness.. I tried disconnecting that and putting the factory harness back in.. it wasn't that...

So this is what happens.. My car thinks my key is in the ignition when it is not.. so if you open the door with the key not in the ignition.. the door "dings" .. I have tried replacing the battery on my keyless.. but it is definitely not that considering it thinks the key is in the ignition...

Any one have similar issues? or can any one help????? pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

The turbo timer has nothing to do with that. What idiots........ That reminds me on the time i took my car in for the clutch issue, and they blamed it on the MBC.

I have the same problem as the OP. It all started with a turbo timer install. I have been dealing with it for a couple years now and really want to fix it.

I be you in the 4 years since this has been posted the fix is still the same. Pull the turbo timer out. Don't beat the **** out of your car and turn if off right away is all. Let her cool down a bit.

Your problem is under the column on top of the steering wheel. There's a white box under there that most people when installing a turbo timer mess up. Pull of the cover and locate the little white box, there are two wires that run to this box. All you need to do is get some electrical tape and tape them together. Easy fix, that's your problem guaranteed.
