Oem key fob Q

In summary. Unless you've got a UK Spec or aftermarket alarm, you'll never get the factory system paired with a key again.

 

The OEM J-Spec central locking was only supplied as a unit, i.e. keys and module supplied together. No one, that I'm aware of, has yet been able to pair a new fob to an old central locking unit.

The jspec factory option came as a c/l unit that goes under the passenger seat along with two pre-programmed key fobs. These have no means of pairing any additional fobs. The US and Euro spec cars came with a c/l unit located behind the steering column and that has a magic red button on it to pair new additional fobs. I don't know about the UK version, maybe someone with a UK car could check to see if their c/l module is located under the passenger seat or by the steering column.

 

Last time I checked, you could still buy the Denso c/l under seat module with new fobs but it was really expensive so if you need new fobs you may as well buy a new generic module with remote fobs that you can pick up for around £30 on places like eBay. The Denso unit was many hundreds of £'s 2 years ago and may no longer be available.
