Alpine 8440 alarm remote
I recently bought a car with Alpine alarm installed. Which model it is
I don't know. It came with two remotes but only one was working. I opened te broken one, washed it , do some soldering and it started to lit the small red led on it. But it still doesn't arm/disarm. If I put the chip inside the remote to that working one it will work. Is there still something wrong with that remote or is there something other than that removable chip that tells to the alarm which remote to work with? Jyrki, Finland |

Alpine 8440 alarm remote
The chip just programs the alarm frequency. You won't be able to get a new
8440 either since Alpine hasn't used it in years and their supplier, Pacific Coast Parts, doesn't usually have them in stock. You can check www.pacparts.com to see if you get lucky. If they do have it, expect it to be $40-$50 Paul Vina "jiipee" wrote in message m... I recently bought a car with Alpine alarm installed. Which model it is I don't know.

Alpine 8440 alarm remote
The short answer is no. Alpine made a lot of chip remotes, but they weren't
all compatible. it would be best to try to find a new one. Paul Vina "J.Pitko" wrote in message ...
