Having trouble getting a new key programmed

[Ericict]

This reminds me, I only have one SKIM key! I need to go get some more made!

First will cost you a hook up to the DRB unless you got people...

@psrivats found someone local that can do it I believe.

I'd recommend anybody with two factory grey keys program a third key. This whole process is such a mess and a third key is good insurance. If you loose the third one you can always program a new one. I've heard that if you have only one key and go to a locksmith they simply clone the key so you can't use that pair to program a new key yourself. If you have two real keys all you have to do is cut a third and you can program it with the other keys so you save that cost. I've done it, it's easy. If you only have one grey key there's not much point in cloning more than one extra.

Sorry for you guys that had problems, I know this isn't much help. Hopefully others read this and avoid the trouble.

I did this last week. Got a cheap $10 key and used my two OEMs to program it. The OEMs will go in the folder with my title and if my new key ever gets lost or goes bad, I can program another one. The guy at Home Depot cut it for free since I brought my own. He checked to see if they were chipped and his little machine didn’t pick up on them. So I got a freebie there.
