You have not described the symptoms. Is it a "crank but not start" or a "cranks three times, then nothing till I disconnect the battery" situation?
If you can 'flash' the SKREEM, you should be fixing all of our cars that have bad SKREEMS.
pizzaguy;940310, you obviously know more about this issue than I do as I only started looking at the SKREEM as the problem, TODAY!
WHY? AS I briefly mentioned I have had INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS with the KEYS, BATTERY, ALARM...ETC!
I FIGURED THAT BREVITY WOULD GET THE MOST VIEWS AND RESPONSES! BECAUSE WHO REALLY WANTS TO READ A 1000 WORD COMPLAINT?
It appears that one cant answer my questions without a complete play by play diagnostic workup. I thought they were very simple...'Does the transponder antenna and skreem module have to be purchased together?'
I'm assuming your answer is NO since 'it's just an antenna' but I also suspect you dont really know since you ask the symptoms.
Would different symptoms require a different answer? No crank no start means YES ANTENNA RING AND MODULE MUST BE PURCHASED TOGETHER but A crank no start means NO, THE ANTENNA RING AND MODULE CAN BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY!
