🔧 PRO TIP
The 1996 Concorde uses a non-transponder mechanical key for ignition and a separate GQ43VT7T remote for keyless entry. No chip in the key, no immobilizer on this year. The remote runs on a CR2016 and operates lock, unlock, and panic. When the remote dies, people assume the car won't start, but the ignition side is purely mechanical. Dead remote just means you lose keyless entry, not engine function. Replace the CR2016 first and check for corroded battery contacts inside the shell.

1996 Chrysler Concorde Remote Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Got a call from a nurse finishing an overnight shift, parked off Thousand Oaks Boulevard corridor. Her 1996 Concorde's remote had quit on her sometime during her shift. She was standing next to the car clicking the GQ43VT7T over and over, nothing happening. She thought the car was locked out entirely.

First thing I told her: the key still turns the ignition. The '96 Concorde has no transponder, no immobilizer. The mechanical key starts the car regardless of the remote. She didn't know that. Most people don't on these mid-90s Chryslers because every car they've driven since has had a chip key.

I drove out and popped the remote open on her hood. The CR2016 was original, which on a '96 means it had been dead for a long time. The battery contacts inside the GQ43VT7T housing had some green corrosion built up. Cleaned the contacts, dropped in a fresh CR2016, and tested all three buttons: lock, unlock, panic. All responded on the first press.

Then I cut her a spare mechanical key right there from the car, because she'd been running on a single key for who knows how long. No programming needed since there's no chip to pair.

She kept saying she thought she'd need to get towed to a dealer. For a battery and some corrosion. That's the part that gets me. People assume the worst because newer cars trained them to.

Chrysler Concorde Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

What is the cheapest way to replace the remote on my 1996 Chrysler Concorde?
Call a mobile locksmith. The dealer route on these older Chryslers tends to involve ordering the GQ43VT7T remote (part number 04688527), scheduling a visit, and paying shop rates for what amounts to a simple RF pairing procedure. With me, I carry compatible remotes on the van, program them on site, and the whole job takes maybe 20 minutes. No tow, no appointment window, no separate line items for the fob, programming, and "diagnostic fees." You'll spend a fraction of what the dealer wants, and you won't have to leave your driveway.
Does my 1996 Chrysler Concorde have a transponder chip in the key?
Are aftermarket remotes reliable for the 1996 Concorde, or should I stick with OEM?
My Concorde remote only works when I'm standing right next to the car. What's wrong?
Can I program the GQ43VT7T remote myself on a 1996 Concorde?
