    Curious...
    If you get a used car that has keyless entry and it is missing the remote
    (key fob)..
    You buy a replacement remote and program it...
    If someone else has the original ..would it still unlock the vehicle if a
    replacement has been newly programmed?

    Been reading that most, if not all, remotes have to be programmed at the
    same time..
    So if you program a new/replacement remote...the original shouldn't work?
    (unless programmed at same time)
    Is this correct?

    From http://auto.howstuffworks.com/remote-entry2.htm , the old remote should
    not work with the system reprogrammed. Of course, someone will reply who
    knows someone who knew someone who had a friend and it did work.
