HELP! I need to code a new key for my 9-3! I performed a search......
Hello everyone! First post, though I have used the site a few time before. I performed a search on the forum but still need help:
I have an '01 9-3 that I need new keys for. I previously had one all-in-one key which started the car fine, untill it was damaged. I have another transponder key that I purchased for the car that the locksmith never learned to the vehicle (now I know why) as he was trying to just clone the key. From what I have found, I will need to replace my VSS, marry it to my ECU and have new keys made at a dealership for lots of money, or install a used ECU, VSS, and add new keys using the transponder key(s) that I acuired with the other two units, using a Tech II
I understand that I could have used a Tech II to program a new key if I had one which was operating properly.
I have heard about another computer which can reprogram my VSS to a new key without an operational old one. Does onyone know where I can get access to one, or if it is even possible?
** I did find a company which will take my Twice Module and cut/code two new keys for $600. I really don't look forward to spending that much money, please let me know if there is anything else I can do.
Thanks for the help!
