Got my 2014 RAM used at a non-dodge dealer, it came with only ONE very used key fob. It works ok, but the outer shell sometimes comes apart. I got two after market fobs on eBay and will be attempting to use alfaobd to program them.
So far getting my vehicle PIN at the local parts counters is proving NOT to be free. I travel a large area for my job and have been stopping in at dealers when I have time. First one (Sonora CA) had it printed out in his hand and then asked me for $15, I said "it should be free" and walked. Second one (Stockton CA), said she needed to get authorization from a manager, and I asked if there was a charge and she said $20, I said "**** that" and walked out.
I'll keep checking around, calling out the ones that charge and how much, but have a feeling I'm just gonna end up paying for a key puller app.
BTW, the
eBay fobs I got stated they can be programmed but two working fobs are required! See attached for the instructions they provided. Has anyone seen these instructions before? Are two working fobs really needed? Why? I only have one working fob.
