RED DOG - I do not have a direct answer to your questions, but I recently got involved with the key fob/SKREEM posts on this forum. Bargegeek gave me the name and email address for a company in Canada who does a lot of key work and SKREEM programming. I know that you said your main concern is the key and I thought this company may be able to help you. The company name and email address is the same. Just email Autokeypro.ca and/or look up Autokeypro on the internet.

They were very helpful and quick to reply to my email questions about the SKREEM unit. In hearing from them, I think their main expertise is in key and key fob work.

I hope this will help you and help to resolve your concerns. If you will, let me know how this works for you as I may have the same problem someday.

Good luck,

Jim Holian
