keyless entry remote question

Oct 14, 2007 1 Replies

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?

, the old remote should not work with the system reprogrammed. Of course, someone will reply who knows someone who knew someone who had a friend and it did work. C R
