Although this signaling model is budget, it has two-way communication and has all the necessary functions, as well as the ability to receive a signal within a radius of 1 km from the vehicle. To bind and program the key fob, you must perform the following steps.
- You need to open the door and then insert the key into the ignition; you do not need to start the car.

Due to the fact that the screen on the main alarm key fob was leaking and the time and temperature were no longer displayed on the right side, and the case was worn out by time, I decided to repair the key fob by ordering the screen and the case, but the price of these two items was only a little less than the key fob assembled, well, I found displays on Ali only on legs, and in the original keychain - with a cable.
Judging by the signaling box that came with the car, the model was Tomahawk TW9030. I ordered this keychain. It cost 636 rubles. I received the keychain about a month ago already, but... The car was undergoing major overhaul with the piston engine being converted to fit Gromozekovskaya (I’ll write more about this later), I only got around to the signaling system yesterday.
I downloaded the instructions from the Tomahawk website and did everything as described there:
Everything went like clockwork: the buttons were pressed, the alarm beeped. However, upon testing, only the old spare key fob worked.
I googled this problem today and found an alternative solution for programming new key fobs: everything is the same as the standard instructions, only you need to hold down not the silent mode and trunk buttons, but the open and close buttons!
Thus, we managed to register both key fobs with feedback, and the old spare one was registered with the old button combination.
Linking a new key fob (also often called programming) causes difficulties, especially if the instructions from the delivery kit are lost. In the case of Tomahawk alarms, additional problems arise due to the fact that for very similar models from the same model range, the key fob programming mode can be activated in different ways: by mixing up the alarm model, you can try for a long time to get the new key fob to work and not get any results.
Tomahawk TZ 9020
In a key fob with two-way communication, you can program with your own hands: a clock, an alarm clock, a timer.
The setup is carried out according to the following instructions.
- Press the F button until the clock icon flashes;
- Set the value by pressing “Luggage compartment opening” and “Crossed-out loudspeaker”;
- Press the F key again to adjust the minutes;
- The next press on F will allow you to configure the alarm values. This is done using the “Trunk” and “Speaker Crossed” buttons;
- Press the F button again and you can set the minutes in the alarm clock;
- An additional press of F switches the alarm clock to on (“Trunk open”) or off mode (“Crossed out loudspeaker”);
- The timer is programmed in the same way.

The Tomahawk TW 9010 car alarm with auto start can support work with 4 pagers. This also applies to the TZ 9010 model. Setting up one or all remote controls for these anti-theft systems can be done in several stages in different ways. The first option in accordance with the operating instructions is as follows.

Such a video can always be viewed on some automotive resources.
- If you do not perform any actions with any of the remote controls for 6 seconds, the setup will stop after that in automatic mode.
All communicators that have not been activated will be deleted from the system.
Firmware and reprogramming of the 9020 remote control

- Turn off the ignition.

If all actions are performed correctly, the system will write the key fobs into memory (for the first remote control - 1 signal, for the second - 2, etc.).
All pagers not participating in the binding will be deleted from the system.
