#160 of 163 My range is horrible by onebigswede Nov 12, 2008 (12:26 pm)
I just bought my 2006 Chevy Impala LT this past weekend with 30,000 miles on it. Overall i love the car so far, except for the fact that the range on the remote keyless entry is horrendous! I've tested it in several different situations, and the longest range I can reach is about 50 feet - and that's if I'm lucky.   I think I may need to get the receiver replaced as so many have mentioned here. I better do it before the warranty runs out at 36k.   So when I go in, I should probably mention TSB #3764, correct?
#161 of 163 Replacement of receiver, do at home? by p62480 Mar 18, 2009 (6:08 pm)
Has anyone attempted to replace the receiver on their own? I have a copy of the TSB and could buy the antenna and receiver for around $100. The TSB I have gives directions on how to do it and they don't look to hard. Just wondering if anyone has tried it themselves and was wondering how hard it might be. I'm out of warranty and don't want to pay $730 for the dealership to do it. Replies to this message: jomu00 (Apr 07, 2009 1:55 pm) mitzij (May 08, 2009 9:26 am)

Replying to: p62480 (Mar 18, 2009 6:08 pm) I think you need a TechII to program the system after you're done replacing parts. If you have one of those, you're in like Flynn.   If you're not far out of warranty, you might appeal to your favorite dealer for a little Goodwill. They may be able to get GM to foot the bill, or part of the bill. Remember, you get more flies with honey than with vinegar. They don't owe you anything. You are asking for a favor.
