Key Fob 1 and/or 2
 
As you may or may not know... I recently bought an 03 Bonnie. It did not come with any key fobs. Through my research and inquiring, I have found that there are 2 different types of fobs for the 03 Bonnie (as well as others, I assume), and as many as 4 key fobs can be programmed. My question is how many of each can be programmed. I just purchased 2 fobs, both "key fob 1". Will I able to program and use both? Or just one? Any help would be appreciated. (By the way I already know that I have to go the the dealer to program these.)

We had to get extra Fobs for Kendra's car. The dealer programmed one that they "found" from another car and just programmed it as Fob 2 (I had Fob 1).

Rogue,

Was it Fob 1 or Fob 2? There is a difference... They have 2 different OEM part numbers.

what is a fob in general

Plurr 09-10-2003 05:02 PM

a fob is the keychain remote to unlock your car

Just F.Y.I.

I just had 2 key fobs programmed and they are both "Key Fob 1". They both work great. I guess this answers my previous questions.

Rogue doesn't mean necessarly "fob 1" and a different type "fob 2". We programmed both "fob 1's " as driver 1 and driver 2. Like my fob for my car sets driver 2 options and Todd's fob sets driver one options. Does all this make sense? :confused:

The only differance is the number in the plastic on the back. Fob 1 has a 1 on it, and Fob 2 has a 2 on it. Either can be programmed as driver 1 or 2.

why is it called a fob...thas a funny word!

According to webster, one of the deffinitions of a Fob is "an adornment that hangs from a watch chain" This could be my only guess. Of course it might stand for something too. Who knows? :roll:
