Can I program this myself for a 2006 Forester?

I read some forums that said YES, you can do it on an '06 Forester, but when you go to set it up, make sure you read the directions from your users manual... All the posts online are wrong... You need to do the process TWICE--Up & Down lock unlock etc.

I ordered a keyless for a 2006 Legacy and got a 2006 Forester. I sent it back and finally got a 2006 Legacy, but the locksmith could not get it programmed. I sent it back and went to the dealer and paid more but only by 40.00.

Yea, it should only take 3 min, procedures for programming is easily attainable from google as well.

Very easy to program, it's self explanatory. Took me about 2 minutes on my 05 LGT. And yes, the 2006 Forrester is one of the models that this remote works with.

Hey! I tried to do it myself, but my car was not cooperating. I finally took it to my body shop and the secretary programmed it for free. We live in the boonies... But she gave me the impression that this was a common thing for her to do.

It took me more than two minutes--I found the directions a bit confusing, but yes you can do it yourself.

2004 Forester: was OK when followed Subaru manual instructions because the instructions included with this remote didn't work

Programming is based on the system installed in the vehicle, not the actual remote. If you search your system info you should find the instructions you need, or you are welcome to send us an Amazon message for help. Thank you!

Yes but it still needs to be cut. I took it to the dealership and they did not charge me. If you have two originals you can program it yourself. Instructions in your car owners manual.

if you have two current working keys you can program the key yourself. if you only have one key right now a dealer or locksmith will have to perform the programming. thanks!!

Works great I. The 2010 forester. Maybe you could ask a Subaru dealer if the design has changed much. I really like mine, easy to install

Yes you shoul be able to program them yourself . The kit comes with a website to go to that will walk you threw the process. It is very simple

I'm not sure if you can. I had to have mine (for a 2008 model) programmed by the dealer. You might try researching on an Infiniti/G35 forum.

You can buy the key on axon and get it programmed at the dealership. It will save you over 100 bucks. But there is no way in avoiding dealer programming

You can do it yourself. I ordered one for a friend, and helped him program it...just follow instructions.

In order to program this yourself you MUST have 2 working keys. If you do not have 2 working keys then you must visit a locksmith or dealership. thanks MR REmotes

You cannot. Tried and failed. Ended up sending back to the seller. Bought a new Key Fob on ebay and paying the dealership to reprogram it and the one remaining one I had when we purchased the car.

Just look in the vehicle manual for programming. If you don't have a manual google one. There is no code, just a procedure for programming.

No, can only program one at a time. It saves your original program so you would have to go back to stock in order to start programming a different vehicle.

It has to be programmed . it cost me 25$ by locksmith ( cheaper than dealer )

I lloked up several directions on line, and tried them, and nothing worked. It did not work on my 06. I had to purchase one fron the Chevrolet dealership for $78.00 + $29.00 to program.

Yes you will. The dealer down here would not do it unless you purchase the part from them. I found a shop that would do it and had them program it for me.
