HI all,
does anyone know the frequency of our P38 remote keys out here? Im trying to order a new one from LR Aust and am told by several dealers they arent currently available, and havent been for months. I have tracked down the alarmremotes mob in the UK, but they need to know the frequency for our market. Anyone know??

They started out with 315MHz but changed to 415MHz to overcome interference issues.
If you have an early car, it could well have been swapped over to the later system though.
What model year is your RR?

Its a March 97 build. The receiver box has PA6GF30 as the only numbers on it. My remote key (Key 2 the only one that came with it...) has a US/Canada FCC ID number on it. On Range Rovers.net it says Rest of World 415MHz. 315 for NA. Does this give anyone any clues? These guys are quite cheap at 90 GBP, but they are unable to do the 315 MHz.
PM me the last 6 digits of your VIN & I'll see if it was upgraded under warranty.

I'd be very interested in finding out how you go with this as my remoted died and no matter how hard i try I just cant justify the $575 that land Rover want to charge for a new remote!

This post would indicate the P38 uses 315Mhz. http://www.aulro.com/afvb/technical-...-remote-2.html
Certainly my 97/98 Freelander security system fob (2 button) uses 315Mhz - When I needed new ones the cost through Landrover was $190 ea plus one hour service time to program. I bought two of the correct ones for a total of $34 (for two delivered) from ebay UK and found a LR shop who programs them for nothing as a good will gesture hoping you will come back for more major work - works for me.

there is some sort of problem in the "supply line" for factory coded&cut P38keys.
I called a dealership in the London area with a view to faxing him proof of ownership etc and getting a replacement #2fob+key. My daughter now living there was to collect and send it to me... that was the theory.
The parts bloke was most apologetic and said they'd received a bulletin from LR to the effect that P38 fobs/keys were not currently available. I'm waiting for daughter to return to London when she finishes her "Race the Planet" Sahara run (as one does...) and check progress... (some people just go to the seaside for a holiday...
)

later p38s were suposedly 433 (but some aren't) and early ones can be either 433 or 315 as some were up-graded to 433, the problem is that some dealers did not keep accurate records and some up-grades were not done by dealers. the only way to know what you have is to test it and to read the FOB/bar code from the becm.
also do not buy a second hand (or new) remote unless you have a FOB/BAR code for that remote, without the code it is useless.
sometimes the old remote is repairable, if you can get to the Bexley area i may be able to help as this is what i do for a living. 0421 509 083.
