🔧 PRO TIP
The 1997 Concorde uses a non-transponder ignition key paired with a separate remote, FCC ID GQ43VT7T, part number 04688527. No chip in the key, no immobilizer on this year. The security lives in the remote only for lock, unlock, and trunk. If your remote dies, the car still starts fine with the plain metal key. Swap the CR2016 first. A weak cell makes the remote look broken when it is just underpowered.

1997 Chrysler Concorde Remote Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Got a call from a guy near Westlake Plaza in Thousand Oaks. His 1997 Chrysler Concorde had been sitting in a parking lot for two days because he thought a dead remote meant the car would not start. Someone told him Chrysler keys had chips and without a working one the engine locks out.

Not on this car.

The second-gen LH platform Concorde from 1993 to 1997 does not have a transponder immobilizer. The ignition key is a standard Chrysler Y157 blank, no chip inside. The GQ43VT7T remote is a standalone unit that handles lock, unlock, and trunk, but it has nothing to do with starting the engine. He could have turned the key and driven home two days ago.

I drove out, turned his key in the ignition, and the 3.5L fired right up. He just sat there for a second, processing that.

Then I dealt with the actual problem. His remote was completely dead. Popped the case, found a corroded CR2016 that had been leaking. Cleaned the battery contacts on the board, dropped in a fresh CR2016, and re-synced the remote using the on-board programming sequence. Lock, unlock, trunk, all responding clean from 30 feet.

He lost two days over a battery that costs almost nothing. The fix took me about fifteen minutes on site, for way less than even the diagnostic fee at a dealer.

Chrysler Concorde Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

Why did my 1997 Concorde remote stop working but the car still starts with the key?
Because they are two separate systems. The 1997 Concorde does not have a transponder chip in the ignition key. Your Y157 key is a plain mechanical cut that works the ignition cylinder directly. The GQ43VT7T remote is just a radio transmitter for the door locks and trunk. When the remote dies, you lose convenience functions, not engine start. Ninety percent of the time it is a dead CR2016 or corroded battery contacts inside the remote housing.
What is the GQ43VT7T remote and what does it control on my 1997 Concorde?
How does a locksmith replacement compare to going through the Chrysler dealer for this remote?
Can I program a replacement GQ43VT7T remote myself on my 1997 Concorde?
My 1997 Concorde remote only works when I am right next to the car. Bad remote or bad receiver?
