1. Close all doors
2. Insert key into ignition
3. Hold down the power UNLOCK button on the driver's door panel, continue to hold down
until instructed to release in step 9.

4. Perform steps 5 through 8 in a fairly rapid succession.
5. Turn the ignition to the ON position (as far as you can go without starting the engine.)
6. Turn the ignition to the OFF position.
7. Turn the ignition to the ON position (as far as you can go without starting the engine.)
8. Turn the ignition to the OFF position.
9. Release the power UNLOCK button on the door panel. The vehicle should respond by
door locks locking and unlocking automatically. (If locks do not cycle after you let go,
not before you let go of the unlock button, then the vehicle has not entered programming
mode and you must start procedure over. Remove key from ignition, open drivers door
and return to step 1 ). If the locks do cycle automatically then proceed to step 10.

10. Hold down the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the remote until the doors lock and
unlock. This may take up to 30 seconds.

11. Repeat step 10 NOW for each additional remote. (Including any existing remotes).
12. Turn the ignition to the ON position to exit the programming mode.
13. Test remote(s).

Click on the link.
Found that info in my database.
As far as programming your transmitter/key fob, my info says you need a scan tool that can communicate with that system. Your owners manual should have some basic info on your key fob?

How to reprogram key fob after jump starting dead battery.

what you are missing is that the key fob relates to the immobiliser that has a corrupt program from the dead battery. The keys will be ok so use a scanner to reset the immobiliser in the cpu program. Just reset the ecm and the immobiliser will reset

Battery in key fob went dead need to reset keyfob audi tt 2000

hi you can do this but you will have to have a key that does not have a remote/fob on it ( basically just go get one cut cheaply ) then to reprogram keys/key fob's first using the key without fob, turn ignition on ( do not turn over, just to position 2) then lock drivers door with other key ( do not use fob, just the key itself with fob now complete the following within 30 seconds within 5 seconds( of locking the car) press the unlock button on the first key once ( this programs that key as key memory1) the indicators should flash once to indicate signal received wait 5 seconds then press unlock on key fob vehicle should then unlock meaning key fob has been programmed and programming ended open door turn ignition off , and that's it, it should work if you have more than 1 key with fob, do the same as above but instead of pressing unlock once, you do it twice, if third key 3 x if fourth key 4 x etc etc,

How can I program key fob for audi a4 quattro 3.0 tdi ? Both of my keyfobs are now non working, so how I vcan repr9ogram them ?

If you have a owners manual, it should tell you how in it. If you're battery's went dead in the remotes you should be able to program them according to the instructions in your owners manual. I have a 2001 jetta and in order to get a new remote programed I had to go to the dealer.

Suzuki Keyless entry

NO PROBLEM, TOLD AT ALL(WOW)?
door locks dead or ignition key dead, NOT TOLD.

LOST THE 2ND KEY(DAY1, NEW CAR HAD)?
DOOR LOCKS DEAD.(CLICK FOB) BATTERY IN FOB DEAD.?
SURE THE COIN CELL FAILS 2TIMES IN 20 YEARS. SURE.

OR IGNITION DEAD?, DUE TO IMMO LAMP GLOWING WRONG.
IS THE KEYON IMMO LAMP GLOWING WRONG,. IMMOBILIZED and dead ENGINE?

no country told at all (matters huge)
the users guide answers that, in the glove box
you never said who does this?
  • you (DIY)?
  • locksmith
  • dealer.
  • auto repair shop.?
learn that many cars USA this is covered in the manual
but DIY takes 2 good keys to make a 3 or more.
but in CANada THIS IS NOT ALLOWED THERE BY LAW.

SEE HOW NOT SAYING DIY AND THE COUNTRY, MEANS THERE REALLY IS NO ANSWER.?

also chapter 8 in he paid for service manual covers IMMO fully
if IMMO is the problem not told.

new fob? needs just door close/open reprogramming
all web sites that sell the keys show this answer.

http://www.keys4cars.us/programming/2002-suzuki-grand-vitara-listing-6712.html


do no buy keys outside you country.
they do not work in your country, even the MHz freq, of the transponder to IMMO is not the same.
next time post a real problem
first;
I cant;' do this or that, and get 10x faster help
or OMG tell the country first

each country has their OWN law regulating, IMMO ignitions.
