Hi,

 

Ages I bought a spare remote key for my 03 Galaxy, today I finally got around to reprogramming it - it now opens the door fine (both remote and by using the key), but it does not start the car. Is the programming of the remote element different from being able to start the car? The old car (with a dodgy remote element) and the spare (none remote) key starts the car fine.

 

Any help would be useful.

OK, I have found the chip tucked into the key and swapped these around and the new key now works.. Question is, is it possible to reprogram this chip, so I can keep the old remote key as a spare?
