Can I program a keyfob for a 2009 Dodge Journey using 2 transponder chip keys?

I need to program a keyfob for a 2009 Dodge Journey. I have read you need 2 other keyfobs to do this. My question is can I program a keyfob using transponder chips keys I had made previously? Both keys can be used to start the vehicle. Or can I use the keyfob I have that is giving me problems unlocking the doors and one transponder key?

The dealer will ned to use the diagnostic scanner to program just one fob. If you you have two good ones then you can do a third or fourth.

May be keyfob needs reprogramming.

Keyfob remote reprogramming is not very difficult but on some cases it can be done by dealer service tools.

If the remote s faulty then key fob will not get programmed.

Insert the key in ignition. Turn the key to on position, and cycle the key three times off-on-off-on-off-on. Then with the key fob remote select your remote and then try to operate the vehicle with remote.

These are just the basic procedure, but sometimes it will not help.

On that case dealer is the only option.

01 audi a6 changed key fob now car wont start

Most of these German cars use a transponder in the keyfob. If you replaced yours, and it hasn't been programmed to the car's ECU, then the anti-theft will not allow it to start due to the transponder mismatch.
