Programming Dodge Key Fob

Follow these five simple steps to program your Dodge key fob:

1. Step into the driver’s side of your Danville Dodge vehicle and lock the door using your key fob within 10 seconds of entry.
2. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the “RUN” position while pressing and holding down the “UNLOCK” button on the driver’s door.
3. Simultaneously hold down the “UNLOCK” button and the “PANIC” button and then release them at the same time.
4. Now press the “UNLOCK” and “LOCK” buttons at the same time and then release them at the same time.
5. Press the “UNLOCK” button once more.

Your Dodge vehicle should recognize your key fob now. To check, you can step out of the vehicle and try to enter it as you normally would using the key fob.

How to Reprogram a Key Fob

Having issues with your Dodge Journey? Your key might not be detected, so you can reprogram your key fob to fix that issue. If your remote loses its signal or needs to be replaced, you can also try to reprogram your key fob. Be sure to complete each of the following steps within 10 seconds of the last one:

1. Enter your vehicle with your remote and key fob. Press and release the lock button on the remote five times within ten seconds.
2. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the “RUN” position.
3. Press and hold the “UNLOCK” button on your remote for four seconds while pressing the “PANIC” button. Stop pressing the buttons at the same time to open the programming mode.
4. Press and release both the “LOCK” and “UNLOCK” buttons. Then, press and hold the “UNLOCK” button until your Dodge vehicle responds with a lock cycle.

Afterwards, you can remove your key from the ignition to test if your key fob was reprogrammed successfully.
