keyless entry remote question
Curious...
If you get a used car that has keyless entry and it is missing the remote (key fob).. You buy a replacement remote and program it... If someone else has the original ..would it still unlock the vehicle if a replacement has been newly programmed? Been reading that most, if not all, remotes have to be programmed at the same time.. So if you program a new/replacement remote...the original shouldn't work? (unless programmed at same time) Is this correct? |

Of course, someone will reply who knows someone who knew someone who had a friend and it did work. C R |
