ADVICE IF YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS: I hope this saves sometime the trouble I went through. I bought this because my old fob would program but wasn’t working. When I went to program the new one, I would get a constant beeping and the car would not accept the new serial number. After a few tries, I realized I still had my old fob with me with the battery in it (even though it no longer functioned). I WAS ONLY ABLE TO PROGRAM THE NEW FOB AFTER I TOOK THE BATTERY OUT OF THE OLD FOB, EVEN THOUGH THE OLD FOB DID NOT WORK AT ALL. Also, as a side point, mine is a 2009 manual Impreza and i did not have to hold my clutch in during the programming process. Hope this helps. Thanks for the video!

Can there be a possibility I can ruin the old key if I register the new key?

@shrekwes2032 2 жыл бұрын

@@Ktav95 probably too late now, but no you can program up to 4 fobs to one car.

Hey George. Just programmed an aftermarket Amazon Key fob. Followed your steps….works perfectly. One attempt. One success. Now , I have a back-up key fob. Thank You George👍

Thanks George!!! You rock!! Worked perfectly on my two keyfobs I just bought. Saved me a ton of money and time from having to go to a locksmith or dealer.

Your instructions were perfect! I watched other videos but they didn't exactly match the behavior of my car (2008 Impreza WRX) so I wasn't having any success until I found your very clear instructions. I programmed my fob while following your video and was successful on the first try. THANK YOU!

Awesome step by step instructions... you just save us $300+ the dealership expensive diagnostic appointment (new fob, they said it would take 1hr to reprogramming it) --only took me less than 5mins. well to be honest it took me 5times watching this video... thank you very much for being one honest mechanic.....

THANK YOU! Haven't had a fob in almost two years. The car didn't come with one and they used dealership key guy couldn't get one to program. I ordered one off amazon with little hope that it would work. I followed your directions and it worked! I don't know why the key fob didn't come with instructions. So glad I didn't have to pay the subaru dealership for a key fob. You're the best!

@lantienchu1357 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for this . Worked perfectly for me today with a new replacement fob for a 2012 Forester ($35 fob on Amazon) and saved myself $300 the dealership would have charged for a diagnostic appointment, new fob and reprogramming. DIY success!! (I am no auto expert, maybe a 2 on a scale of 1-10 but I can follow directions from other experts. Thank you so much.)
