Original key does not start car after being lost and replaced. Please help

Recommended Posts

Hi,

2 years ago I lost the original 2012 2500 NV key and had a locksmith replace it.

2 years later, I found the original key but it does not start the car.

 

I wonder if someone can explain this.

 

Is there some type of self programming procedure I can do to make the original key work again?

 

Thanks in advance

The key needs to be reprogrammed. The replacement key you had made changed the programming. The 2 keys are programmed differently.

Thanks, perhaps when the replacement key was made, it changed the original code.

I will have the found key reprogrammed.

Anytime a key is programmed it deletes all keys stored, then you must add all keys at the same time.

Is there a DIY procedure for key programming, or does it require special equipment?
