Default Do I have Keyless Entry?

95 Dakota SLT, if some come with keyless entry, how do I check if mine came with it?


Cycle the ignition 8 times from off to on. Stopping in the on position the 8th time. If the door locks cycle then you have keyless entry and just need to get a key fob/remote. If locks don't cycle then you don't have keyless entry.
Someone said this about a 2008 Ford, any chance Dodge would have something like this?

Unless it is aftermarket you don't keyless entry its to old. I'm not an expert but my guess in 95 even the top cars in those days mostly didn't have keyless entry.

Was wondering the same thing about my '96 DAK because the '95 Jeep GC I had used keyless entry. The replacement fob ran $150-$200 a few years ago. From what I understand, the '93-'95 used IR and when they 'refreshed' the GC in '96 they went to another technology so the price of the fob dopped. The '95 GC had a black receiver in the same housing as the interior light. It was pretty much a bubble but my DAK doesn't have that, not sure what the receiver looked like '96-'98. I'm guessing Dodge didn't use them.

I agree with crazy tho, keyless was pretty rare at that time so I doubt it does.
