The range would be the same as the factory alarm we have on the lexus right now right?
Is there anyway to boost it? Becuase i have to stand about 10feet within my lexus to get it to work
i have the same problem with my gs. might sound funny but when i put the remote up to my chin, it gives me like another 5-10 feet range.

Also - do both your keyes have the same problem? 10 feet is very short.. I am able to Start my IS from 13th floors up, with a clear view of my car.

Well, i guess the key is kind of old...probably around 4 years....Do you know the life expectancy for the key battery/which battery the key uses? If the battery is inexpensive, i'll try replacing it...If that still doesn't work, i'll head to Lexus to see if i can get anything done to it....

I'm really interested in buying one of these...The installation seems simple enough. Don't have to bother with all those wires like on the Valet system...Hopefully, if i can fix the range on the key, i'll be purchasing one


Thanks..

OK - My suggestion to you is to open your master key. There is a tiny screw on one side of the key, once you remove that, you will be able to get inside the key to the battery. Its about the size of a nickel. Some keys take different size batteries. Once you deem the required size, the best thing to do is to head to RadioShack or your nearest electronics or camera store and they will have the replacement battery size for sure. It can't be more than $8 to $12 bucks.
This MAY and should increase the range on your remote. If that doesn't work, then maybe Lexus can help.

If you have an older Lexus, then that seems about right. It even states in my owners manual that you have to be within a couple of meters for the key fob to work.

I would have jumped on this but the timing is just not right for me personally right now.

Is there a GB price for Stage 2, and Stage 3 of the Senso -Shock Alarm? Or is this GB only for Stage 1?

Can you adjust the sensitivity in Stage 1?
