Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this come with new keys and will my existing remote fob still work? A: Yes, two new mechanical keys are included pre-cut to the new cylinder. Your existing remote keyless entry fob will continue to lock/unlock the doors and trunk independently because this cylinder does not affect the remote system, though the new key blade will need to be used for ignition and physical door locks.
Q: Do I need to program anything after installing this ignition lock cylinder switch and housing? A: No programming is required. This is a mechanical and electrical switch replacement; simply install the assembly, plug in the electrical connector, and start the vehicle with the new key — there is no security chip in the key that requires dealer programming.
