How do I reset the key fob for a 2000 porsche boxter

The key opens the door and starts the car but the remote on the key does not lock or unlock the car. How can I reprogram the key without going to the dealer and paying a fortune

SOURCE: car remote keys won't open the car

Look in the manual to see how to make the car "learn" the remote's code. Failing that, look for a box with lot of wires under a seat or find where computer that controls that is in your car. Press the learn button on the box, and push the door lock button on the remote a couple times.

If the key had gone faulty, the key code must be re programmed on the vehicle computer. This can be done only using a PIWIS tool, available at the dealer or at a qualified Porche garage.
Try also the following reset:
turn ignition on,
turn off.
remove the transponder from the column
push any button on the fob within 6 seconds.
This procedure will reset the key synchronizing again with the vehicle computer.

SOURCE: my Porsche Key fob no longer unlocks the doors

Insert key into door barrel or ignition lock and turn key, whilst doing this press the unlock/lock button, the led on the dash should flash to indicate this has initialised the key to the car, then remove key and test operation of remote. If this fails then a new remote plus coding to the car by your dealership is needed

How to reset my key fob for a 2000 saturn station-wagon

The only reset is if the key fob and the receiver get out of sync, to check that be out side of the car doors closed and unlocked. Press both lock and unlock buttons on the remote (key fob) at the same time if the doors lock and unlock that was your problem. It could be the battery it could be the key fob or the receiver.

5. When holding the "OPEN" key, press the "LOCK" button three time.
