Well, my wife managed to loose both FOB's that came with her 6.
I heard a nasty rumor that you need at least one working remote to program a new one, any way around this?
I have a new FOB I picked up but stealership is a joke with what they want to charge me to program it.
If anyone has a way to program a new remote entry without having an existing one, I would be eternally grateful.
These directions only work if you have an existing working FOB.
Step 1: Open drivers door and leave open.
Step 2: Lock and unlock the drivers door using the power door lock switch on the door.
Step 3: Insert key into the ignition.
Step 4: Turn key to on position and return to off position. (IMPORTANT - use ON position NOT ACC position). Do this 3 times within 10 seconds. Leave key in the ignition.
Step 5: Open and close the drivers door 3 times. (Door should be left open after this step).
Step 6: ECU should respond by locking and unlocking the doors.
Step 7: Press any button on remote #1 twice. ECU responds by locking and unlocking the car doors.
Step 8: Press any button on remote #2 (etc.) twice. Each time the ECU will respond by locking & unlocking the doors.
Step 9: Remove the key from the ignition and the ECU will respond a final time with a series of door locks and unlocks.
