Keyless entry remote on 2000 GUII absolute crap. Isolated or common issue?

Yep I just use the key as I don't have the option with the DX (and happy to do so)

Out of interest, has anyone read the GU manual? It says that the remote won't work from more than a meter away.

I can tell you my gu will only (sometimes) work from 1m. Looking into other after market options, thought I'd go whole hog, auto up windows and remote start as well.

I bought a kit from autobarn as jb didn't have them in stock. Pretty much the same as the warlock but it wort work. Ive got the indicators flashing and a 12v supply to the thick blue and blue/red but no door locking? Mudski, did you leave the old box in or remove it and I read somewhere that there's a relay under the drivers side that affects a few installs.

EDIT

Worked it out, there was a blue wire that needed to be grounded.
The kit is a Cyclops TX90 and has all the bells and whistles.
It can lock the doors as soon as the ignition is turned on if the doors are closed which I turned on because the missus is paranoid that someone is going to hijack us at traffic lights.
It also relocks after 1 min 45 sec if no doors are opened and also has a feature that will close all windows as well if hooked to power window circuit.

Does the warlock KG 400 have these options?

The Warlock kit doesn't have those options. Good to see you got it working.

Go for the cyclone kit if you want the windows up option. $99 from autobarn and I can give you the complete wiring as the instructions are also made for smart people.

For some reason it says that it comes with actuators etc but mine didn't, its just the unit and remotes.

Hi. Mate, from what I've learned, I have to press my remote up to 20 times to get it working sometimes. Easier, just use key! Some say it's an earth issue. The body of the ZD30 wagon isn't earthed that well to chassis compared to the Ute. I tried adding another earth strap. Only have to press about 10 times now.Lol.

Read the manual. It actually says that the remote control won't work over a meter away. Nissan actually wrote that.
