Lost Keys, Need New Fob/Reprogramming
So I recently lost the smart key for my BRZ ('14, Limited) and the cabin rental place where I'm 95% sure I lost it at doesn't really seem all that proactive to try and find it.
I've been doing a lot of research trying to find the best way to program a new key fob without an existing one. Techstream seems to be fine with the FR-S key fobs (HYQ12BBY) but from what I've seen there isn't a way to program a virgin BRZ fob (HYQ14ACX) without going through a dealership. For that, I'd have to get my car towed to a dealership, and from there they'd apparently have to remove the steering column, gauge cluster, etc and have them shipped off to be reprogrammed to a new fob, which I was quoted abotu $600 for, not including the tow. TL; DR- does anyone know how to program a BRZ smart key to a car without an original key? Thanks. |
i was told at the dealer when i bought my car that without the little 'dog tag number' on the key ring, it's impossible. don't know how real it is, but i've got no reason to doubt it.
