Key Fob and Remote Programming in Ottawa
If you already have a fob, or bought one online, programming is what makes it work. Most modern vehicles will not accept a new remote until they are told to, and that instruction has to come from equipment with the right manufacturer access.
- Programming fobs you have bought yourself, subject to the unit being correct for your vehicle
- Adding an additional fob alongside the ones you already use
- Re-pairing a fob that has lost its connection to the car
- Erasing lost or stolen fobs from the vehicle's memory
Bought a fob online? Call us with the part details and your year, make and model before booking. Some units sold online are the wrong frequency or cannot be programmed at all, and it is better to know that before we are on the way.
