The Python 474p remote control has a
valet button, also known as a valet/program switch.
Function of the Valet Button:

  • Programming Remotes: The valet button is crucial for programming new or replacement remote transmitters to the Python 474p system.
  • Emergency Override: It can be used to perform an emergency override of the system, potentially bypassing the starter kill function.
  • Entering/Exiting Valet Mode: You can use the valet button to place the system in Valet Mode. This disables security features like the alarm, allowing the vehicle to be serviced or washed without triggering the alarm.
  • Channel Selection for Programming: During the programming process, you press the valet button a specific number of times to select the function (channel) you want to program to a specific button on the remote. For example:
    • Pressing once selects Channel 1 (Arm/Disarm/Panic).
    • Pressing twice selects Channel 2 (Silent Mode/Remote Valet/Trunk Release).
    • Pressing three times selects Channel 3 (Remote Start or other accessories).
Location:
The valet button is typically located under the driver's dashboard or driver's kick panel, and is plugged into the system's main control unit.

Note: The exact location might vary depending on the specific vehicle installation.

In summary, the valet button on the Python 474p serves as a crucial interface for programming the remote control, entering/exiting valet mode, and performing emergency overrides.

SOURCE: How to reprogram Python 4Button Remote 474P ?

I had the exact same thing happen with my 4-button 474p remote. WITHOUT REMOTE START the correct sequence is:

1. Enter car - Leave door open.

2. Turn key to "on" position.

3. Within 5 (five) seconds press the Valet button 7 times then hold down. (Programs to channel 7)

4. Watch alarm light - It should now flash 7 times.

5. While still holding down the Valet button - Press the "lock" button on the remote and release. Should get a "chirp"

6. Now release and repress the Valet button once, holding down. You'll get the "chirp". Release Valet button.

7. Turn key "off". Exit vehicle and test remote. All 4 buttons should now work.

Where is the valet button on the 474p remote car start? We can't get our 474p to do anything
Find the control unit and follow the 2 lead wire to the valet button. They can be placed anywhere the installer decides to install them, usually hidden as part of the security system.

Remote locks don't work
no, that is a switch to detect the hood being opened. The valet switch is a small button or switch and could be anywhere inside the car. Most installers place them near the driver. Check in the center console, around the drivers side kick panel, under the dash, etc.

I have a python 474p keyless entry system installed on my car. I unhooked the battery for a few weeks and now my remotes don't work. I think they may need to be reprogrammed. How do I do that?
You need to provide the model number off the brain, not the remote.
