Re: Replacement key/Key fob?
Thanks onehundred80 and graphiteghost. I have also read that if you try to program an alien preprogrammed used remote it can eff up the Skreem and seen as a security breach. I have 2 original keys and remember I lost the transponder chip. I never found it.
So I wanted to try to see if I can link or program used the remote to unlock doors and glue the good remote inside dash in antenna ring permanently in reach if I need to remove it if I wish to. If this does not work my other plan is buying the a new aftermarket VW remote system with to flip keys and hook up the remote box to the center power door lock switch and glue or attach the last working key in antenna ring and use my factory key blades to turn ignition switch .
I've seen these ebay VW flip key remote systems cheap on ebay . $13. Free shipping. So the original flip key will be behind dash secured . the VW aftermarket systems have 2 flip key remotes so as long as I leave the original key fob In in the antenna ring behind dash secured this could be an option to buying expensive new keys. The Skreem will be happy since the transponder is always in antenna.
The flip keys can be installed into the VW type aftermarket remotes. Anyway just experimenting and trying to find cheap options to a complicated conundrum . I'm not worried about someone stealing car that's why I have insurance. Plus my Crossfire is not a garage queen .. This is my input to a complicated issue.. 😀QUOTE=onehundred80;936083]As far as I know the eight refers to eight separate chips each with it’s own code that the security system will remember if programmed to. If the code is not in memory then the key will not work even if the memory has less than eight codes in it, it will be treated as an alien key and the car will not start.
Red Dog had random purchased fobs open the doors and others did not succeed in having such fobs work at all. The fob keys did not start the car.[/QUOTE]
