That's what I used to help my relatives get into my aunt's Lincoln after she lost her keys and Alzheimer's set in a few years ago.JustJoePhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02882794348703779345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264226589944705290.post-76666578392548674942008-12-05T03:11:00.000-08:002008-12-05T03:11:00.000-08:00Sorry, I forgot, there's only 5 buttons, so theref...Sorry, I forgot, there's only 5 buttons, so therefore 5^5=3125 combinations, or about 1600 button presses on average. Yes, that certainly does seem tractable.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657901505827400722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264226589944705290.post-80925775077866412122008-12-05T03:07:00.000-08:002008-12-05T03:07:00.000-08:00You still have to enter a little over one digit pe...You still have to enter a little over one digit per code, though, so that's an average of about 50,000 button presses to break into one car. Probably perfectly tractable automatically, but if you're doing that, why not just transmit the codes in sequence?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657901505827400722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264226589944705290.post-64560491566996468992008-12-04T11:54:00.000-08:002008-12-04T11:54:00.000-08:00I don't know.

And I'm not going to walk around and try this on somebody else's car, because it would look kind of suspicious.Michael Lugohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671307315028242949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264226589944705290.post-50353705726338842922008-12-04T11:43:00.000-08:002008-12-04T11:43:00.000-08:00They really don't make you wait a few seconds afte...They really don't make you wait a few seconds after you enter an incorrect code? I know that most automatic gates and burglar alarms do, exactly to defeat this kind of attack.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15614585816657425195noreply@blogger.com
