Replacement Keys
Replacement keys can be purchased through the dealer or a 3rd party. The key must be compatible with the vehicle. Before the key can be used to start the vehicle it must be programmed. Programming can be done by inserting the original key(s) as well as the new key into the ignition.
With PATS I, programming of a new key can be done with just one working key. With PATS II, two working keys are required for reprogramming. This helped ensure that only the owner of the vehicle can make duplicate keys. If a second working key is not available programming will need to be performed by the dealer.

Famous quotes containing the words replacement and/or keys:
“Not even the visionary or mystical experience ever lasts very long. It is for art to capture that experience, to offer it to, in the case of literature, its readers; to be, for a secular, materialist culture, some sort of replacement for what the love of god offers in the world of faith.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
“Thou hast the keys of Paradise, O just, subtle, and mighty opium!”
—Thomas De Quincey (1785–1859)
