1. Insert key into and remove it from ignition more than 6 times with in 10 seconds. (hazards will flash)
2. Insert key and turn to ACC position.
3. Push any button on remote once. Hazzards will flash.
4. Open and close door.
5. Done. Check operation of other buttons.
Hi,
I am a new Z owner (I will introduce myself in detail in the new member section soon) and I just get a new fob from eBay. What is the trick if I have to reprogram 2 fobs ? I have to re-do the step 3 before the step 4 ? or re-do the whole procedure for each fob ?
Thanks.
Edit: In fact, just use the unlock door button then close again to program another remote control. When the operation is finished, open the doors AND open the driver door. It works perfectly.
