2009 Ram Key fob programmer

[nuwk3r]

I bought a 2009 Dodge Ram and the keyless entry doesn't work. I purchased two Fobik key fobs but they need programmed. I am looking at the CK100 Programmer on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/TOOGOO-CK-10...329&sr=8-4&keywords=ck100+auto+key+programmer
It will program a 2009 Ram produced in Canada. Does anyone know how to tell where the truck is manufactured?

Has anyone used this programmer or know of a programmer that will work?

For that price, I would look into simply taking them to a local locksmith. I've had fobs programmed in the past for a reasonable price this way vs taking it to the dealerships

Thanks for the reply RedFalcon. I called the dealer and they quoted me $300 for both fobs. I called the locksmith and he quoted me $125 to program with no guarantee. So I was tempted to try this programmer for the price. I see it does 2009 Dodge Ram but it says Canada. I'm not sure what the difference would be between a truck manufactured in the USA. I thought I would try the forum to see if anyone else tried this CK100 out on their Ram. I think I may give the programmer a try.

I do know that there is a difference between the ones manufactured in the US and Mexico. My friend has one built in Mexico and we find all sorts of little things that make working on his truck more difficult or at least more of an inconvenience because we need a different part or tool.

Somewhere buried in the forum, there was a thread with a link to a site where you could put in your VIN and it would spit out your build sheet for your truck. I believe that it has a note in the build sheet about where it was assembled.

Looks like this may work
