Does anyone know how to reprogram the factory key fob on a 2003 Tib after
replacing the fob battery. I have 2 that are getting flaky after 4 years.

I shouldn't even be getting into this, but I thought the programming was in
the receiver (in the car). The transmission frequency of the fob won't
change just because of a new battery.

Of course, I could be wrong!

I think you are correct from what I've read.
Faulty signal code registration

Ensure normal door opening/closing by using the door key and register
the code again



1. To store transmitter code, first connect the hi-scan (pro) to the Data
Link Connector (DLC) in driver side crash pad lower panel.
2.. Turn the power on hi-scan (pro) with the ignition switch ON.
3.. Select the vehicle model on hi-scan (pro).
4.. After selecting "CODE SAVING" menu then button "ENTER" key.
5.. Proceed as follow steps and then code saving is completed.
1.. Press [ENTER] key, if you are ready.
2.. Press the transmitter [LOCK] button above 1 second.
3.. If you save transmitter one more, press other transmitter [LOCK]
button above 1 second.
4.. Turn the hi-scan (pro) off, and check the keyless entry system

 

Hmmm- perhaps what I what I should have asked for is to resync the fob with
the car. I found some instructions for that on the hmaservice site. But
thanks for the info!
