VR key programming

Post by Charlescrown »

I have lost one of my keys for my VR and am wondering if there is a way of programming a new key other than paying a locksmith. I have a Tech2 but don't think it will do ALDL only OBD2.

VR is tech1, some workshops may have an older scantool that does multiple cars that can do it also.

There is a VS option in the tech2 i think 1999 maybe but i think that was engine only.

Thanks for the reply. I thought like the VS that there might be a funny procedure like sticking your tongue up your nose, crossing your fingers and wiggling your toes would do it but it looks like that's not the case. Looks like a locksmith is now the only way to do it.

I bought an iCarScan to turn off oil service light on a few cars and was surprised when I hooked it up to a vr and it could activate lights ,wipers,door locks interior light , and reset keys
