🔧 PRO TIP
The 1998 Buick Century uses a separate remote fob and a plain ignition key. These are two independent pieces. The remote handles lock and unlock over RF. The ignition key starts the car. They are not the same unit and do not depend on each other. The fob takes a CR2032, and a dead battery is the number one reason these stop working at this age. Before anything else, crack it open and swap the cell. The contacts inside these older GM housings corrode quietly over 25-plus years, so while you have it open, clean the contact points with a dry cloth. If the fob still has short range or one button feels mushy, the rubber pad underneath has probably hardened and needs replacing, not the whole fob.

1998 Buick Century Remote Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Over in the Lemonwood neighborhood, a guy flagged me down after calling. He had a 1998 Buick Century and a fob that had stopped locking his doors. Not intermittent, just done. He had been manually locking every time, which was fine until he started forgetting, and then one morning found the car had been rummaged through overnight.

He had already gone to a dealer. They told him a new fob plus the programming visit was more than he wanted to spend on a late-nineties car. He figured that was the end of it.

I pulled up in the evening. The fob housing was intact but the CR2032 was reading near zero on my meter. I swapped the battery, cleaned both contacts, and ran the onboard programming sequence that GM built into these W-body cars for exactly this situation. No OBD port required for a working-remote add, just the right procedure and a known-good fob.

Every button confirmed before I left his driveway. He looked at it like he expected it to fail again. It did not.

He paid a fraction of what the dealer quoted. The whole job took less time than the drive to a dealership would have.

“The dealership quoted me $600 for a new Honda key. EZ Car Keyz did it for $225, same day, cut and programmed at my house. Works perfectly. Everyone should know this is an option.”

“A+ service at an even better price. Tim was a lifesaver. I lost my original and only key for my Audi and he was willing to come to my location at 8pm the same day. He worked fast, communicated clearly, and made sure everything worked before leaving.”

Buick Century Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

How many buttons does the 1998 Buick Century remote have?
Four. Lock, unlock, and the other two buttons are all tested and confirmed working before I leave your location. On a fob this age, it is worth running every button deliberately because a stuck or slow-responding button usually means the rubber contact pad underneath has degraded, not that the electronics are bad. That is a cheap fix if caught early.
What kind of remote does the 1998 Buick Century use, and how does it work?
Do I need to be there when you do the work?
Can I program a replacement fob for my 1998 Buick Century myself, or do I need a shop?
My 1998 Century remote works fine up close but the range has dropped to almost nothing. What causes that?
