Programming the remotes
information is ever subject to change and correction

2008, 2007, 2006 Tribeca, Impreza, Legacy/Outback,
2005 Legacy, Outback,

This is somewhat complicated and everything needs to be done in a quick timely manner or you have to start once again (and over again).

It is much easier to contact your local dealer who can program them for you using a special computer.

Programming new remotes
The keyless entry system is equipped with a lawmaking learning feature that allows you to program new transmitter codes into the system or to delete old ones.
The system can learn up to four unique transmitter codes. The 4 transmitter codes may be the same or unlike.

To register a new transmitter  with the keyless entry system, it is necessary to program the transmitter's code (identification number) into the system.
A characterization showing the code is affixed to the bag containing the transmitter, and another is affixed to the excursion board within the remote.  If there is no bag, open the remote and make a note  of the 8-digit number.

the lawmaking is too inside the remote transmitter (prototype c. SoA)

Programming the remote transmitter code (from the owners transmission)
read through this first since eveything needs to be done in a quick sequence
1. Sit down in the driver's seat, close all doors and the rear gate or trunk lid etc
2. Open and close the commuter's door one time.

so  Within 45 seconds
iii. open and close the driver's door once
4. turn the ignition key from LOCK to ON ten times within 15 seconds.
An electronic tone volition audio one time, a buzzer will continue to audio and the interior low-cal will continue to wink until the transmitter codes are completely registered.

If you do not perform the steps above inside 45 seconds an mistake will occur and neither an electronic tone  nor  the  buzzer  will  sound and the interior lamp will non flash. In this event, start all over once again.

Inside 45 seconds practise the following
Open and close the driver's door in one case within xv seconds and an electronic tone will audio for 30 seconds. If  y'all exercise not perform the operations inside fifteen seconds an error will occur and the electronic tone will non audio. In this effect, perform the registration steps again beginning with # 3 to a higher place.

Ok, here is the fun office...

Earlier the electronic tone stops, press the power door lock push button to LOCK the aforementioned number of times as the leftmost digit of the transmitter code.
For example, press the LOCK push eight times if the leftmost digit of the code is viii. If the number is three then LOCK the door 3 times etc...
When y'all accept finished entering the number, push to UNLOCK side within five seconds and
Then do that for all the remaining 7 digits of the code. Afterwards each series pull the lock knob to the UNLOCK side inside 5 seconds.

When yous are finished, inside 5 seconds push that LOCK button to UNLOCK one fourth dimension and then do it all once more, the total series.
Yeah, in one case again offset with the left digit and re-enter each ane using the lock button within a few seconds.
When you lot accept entered the  eighth  digit the second fourth dimension an electronic tone will audio for 30 seconds.

The electronic tone will terminate sounding when you lot start entering the number. If you practise non start entering the number using the lock knob before the electronic tone stops sounding, an error volition occur. In this upshot, perform the registration steps again start with function 3 above.
If the interval between one push of the knob and the next exceeds five seconds, an error volition occur.
In this outcome, perform the procedure once again beginning with role four. If an mistake occurs six times, perform the procedure once again starting with part iii.

If the code entered the 2nd fourth dimension is not identical to the code entered the beginning time, an error will occur. In this outcome, perform the procedure once again commencement with role 5. If an mistake occurs five times, perform the process once more starting with part iii.

If you  wish to  program another transmitter code into the system (up to four transmitter codes can be programmed into the system), perform the procedure beginning  with part 4. When yous have finished programming all of the necessary transmitter codes into the arrangement, remove the key from the ignition switch.
Examination to make sure information technology'southward right

Deleting erstwhile transmitter codes
The command unit of the keyless entry organization can store 4 transmitter codes.
Lost transmitter the lost transmitter's lawmaking remains in memory. For security reasons, lost transmitter codes should exist deleted from the retentivity.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four transmitter codes into the system. If y'all have only one electric current transmitter, programme it four times. If y'all have 2
current transmitters, plan each one twice. If you have 3 current transmitters, program two of them in one case and the third ane twice.
This process will leave merely current transmitter codes in the system's memory.

Make sure no i else is operating their keyless entry organisation within range of your vehicle when programming transmitters. If someone else were to operate their remote transmitter while you are programming your transmitters, it is possible that their transmitter code will exist programmed into your system, allowing them unauthorized access to your vehicle.

SVX remote entry

SVX ALARM 1992-97
Operating instructions for the standard remote entry and alarm. (from owners manual, TSBs).
information is always bailiwick to change and correction

When activated the SVX security system helps protect your car and valuables from intrusion and theft by sounding the horn, flashing the lights, and interrupting the starter circuit.

Early SVX alert systems gave off simulated alarms due to a bad connection in the main Security switch on the dashboard. If you still take this, be sure to get out it in the 'on' position, and Subaru recommended turning information technology on-off every week or so with the car parked and the engine running merely to keep the connection make clean.

  • Turning the organisation on and off. With the ignition turned off, press the dashboard on/off switch marked 'security'. The organisation is on when the lighted switch flashes, and off when the light is out.
    • Performance with Remote Transmitter.
      • When leaving the car, ensure the on/off switch is on and flashing. Close all doors and trunk
      • To arm the arrangement and lock the doors, push the remote transmitter button until the car signals 'armed' with one beep of the horn and i flash of the lights
      • To disarm the system and unlock the doors, push the remote transmitter until the car horn signals two beeps and ii flashes of the lights.
      • If the system is armed with the remote it should exist disarmed with the remote. If not, open the door with the key and end the alarm by turning on the ignition.
    • Performance without Remote Transmitter
      • To arm the system when leaving the car ensure the on/off switch is on and flashing, and doors and trunk closed.
      • Depress the inside driver's door lock or lock door with the key
      • System is automatically armed and locks whatever unlocked doors 20 seconds after the concluding door/trunk closes
      • To disarm the system, unlock either door, enter machine and tun on ignition
      • Aural reminder countdown inside machine signals impending alarm activation until ignition is turned on (20 seconds)
    • Turning off the alarm
      • Printing remote transmitter until the alarm stops or turn on the inanition with the fundamental
    • Panic Mode. The warning may exist set off to draw attention to an emergency situation
      • To activate: depress remote transmitter for at least 6 seconds. The horn sounds a warning note after 2 seconds until the full alarm sounds
      • To stop the panic alert. Press and concord the transmitter until the alarm stops or use the primal to turn on the ignition.
    • Keyless entry. Even with the security turned off, lock or unlock the doors by depressing the transmitter. The horn will ostend the action with multiple short merely very tranquillity beeps
    To re-program existing remotes if the battery is dead/replaced etc.
    The remotes must be re-programmed whenever the battery is dead/disconnected. The parking lights will flash and the electronic module will click which means it's time to reprogram. Subaru warns harm to the relay might happen if the remotes are not programmed promptly when the battery is reconnected.

    The antenna for the organisation is behind the glove box, and then point the remotes in that full general area and printing the push on the remotes slowly and firmly a total of 5 times. This means if you are using one remote, push it slowly 5x, if y'all are using two remotes push button ane 3x and the other 2x, over again a full of 5 times. The parking lights flash each fourth dimension.

    To program NEW remotes
    Turn the dashboard Security switch off (no light).
    Turn the ignition switch on-off, go out off with central in ignition.
    Immediately and -apace- repeatedly tap the dashboard security switch on-off until the horn starts to beep. The system will indicate programming mode by the parking lights flashing and control unit clicking.
    I'm told the SVX can be difficult to get into programming mode, so be patient and start tapping the security switch immediately and quickly after turning the ignition switch on-off, and go along tapping it until the horn beeps.
    If you go bored, start once more, which you might have to practice anyway I'k told. It might take a number of attempts to get into programming mode.

    When in programming manner then:
    push the remote 4 times which ways....
    1 remote: push the remote slowly and firmly 4x
    doing ii remotes? push each remote push slowly anf firmly 2x, for a total of 4x

    When done: To complete turn the ignition switch on-off and brand sure the parking lights aren't flashing anymore and remove the key.

    Update Note:  the SVX theft deterrent organization was upgraded for the 92 1/ii model, and retrofitted costless for all customers whose SVX's had the original theft deterrent organization-- consisting of a new security module and a new security system switch. This unit has a permanent retentiveness, and only requires programming for new remotes. To do and so, turn the security system switch off. Insert the key and plough it on and off twice, leaving the key in the ignition. Immediately begin pressing the security switch button  on and off quickly untill the horn beeps (this may take many, many times). You should also hear the security module clicking (it is behind the glove box for models with ane airbag). Once the horn beeps, immediately push the push on each remote, twice. The horn volition likewise beep each time the push button is pressed to signal the transmitter frequency was recorded. Afterwards programming the 2nd key, bike the iginition switch on and off to go out the programming mode (this may have to be done twice to finer exit). That should practise information technology. If not, endeavor over again.
    Non using the keyless entry for an extended period of time may result in the demand to replace the module. Y'all'll know this if the lock/unlock feature does non work later audible bear witness that the new remotes were effectively programmed (i.due east. the horn beeped during the programming process) or if the lock/unlock feature is slow to office (i.e. yous take to push and concur the remote push button for an inordinately long time earlier the lock/unlock feature operates).

    Thanks to Chris from Au for this information February 2006. Note that it is completely unchecked and unconfirmed past me.

    "Not-U.s.a. Foresters, 1997 to at least 1999, standard keyless central locking remote control simply, no warning.

    How it looks:

    Feb 2006.
    How to notice:
    Remember your local wreckers until you find i. May take a while, just someone would proceed them ( I establish ane after all). Price about 30 Australian Dollars used from a wrecker, cost new 285 Australian Dollars from the Dealership plus 30 Aus Dollars reprogramming.

    How to programme:
    Undo the plastic door sill protector (driver door with correct hand drive model)
    Undo the trianglish plastic plate at the front of the sill protector, right to your gas pedal just at the lower front corner of the doorframe
    Hidden under the plate are 2 cable ends with plastic plugs, possibly clear/whitish. Connect (doesn�t matter whether the window is up or downwardly, the door closed or shut, or the key in ignition or not)
    Press �Lock� on the working remote, then immediately later on �Lock� on the new ane. Then press  �Open up� with the working remote and directly later �Open� with the new one. That's information technology.
    Don't forget to disengage the cables again and re-assemble your car ;o)"
