The cover to my current fob has lost all my buttons, my key is fine... can't I just take the electronics out of my current fob and put it in this?

I don't think so. You have to take your key and the new fob to a Saab dealership/repair center and have it programmed (my imports mechanic - who is a gift from god when it comes to keeping my Saab in good shape for half the dealership rates couldn't even hook me up regarding the new fob. He sent me to the dealership).

yes you can if the electronics is working ok. in that case，you only need to buy the outside without the electronic inside. that will cost you a lot less.

Hi I'm a mecanic owner of a SAAB 93 2006 and I did it because my fob was falling apart the only thing is that you got to make shure that it is a genuine saab fob housing otherwise if you buy a copy the buttons are too hard to press and your going to damage the microswitches and another thing is always i repeat always make sure that you have 2 working fob's

Yes you can. Just take it out of your old smart key housing and place it in the new one.

That's what Iam doing, I am transferring it because my other key shell broke but the electronic buttons still work. You will need to look up online just type in Mitsubishi replacemnt electronic key and heres the link, i don't know if you will be able to access it though https://ikeyless.com/vehicles/mitsubishi/?gclid=CJzJ7fDamr0CFYFhMgodgU0Aqg They run kind of expensive depending on the year. around 120 plus shipping. Hope that answered your question? If not shoot me another questions

Probaly not, if your key looked exactly like this, everything will work. You have to pull out the circut board, and I actually removed the actual key from the old key, because the shell was completely smashed and held together with tape. And with a little bit of grinding down a few of the edges with a blade, it fit decently well together and now all of the key works. But if you didn't have the button on your old key, it won't likely be in your circut board in your original, therefore it won't work. Hope this info helps.

That is going to depend on whether it is the same FCC/part number and whether there are any other issues with your old fob. Your best bet- if you are certain of the FCC/Part number- is to have the new key cut and programmed since you will need to purchase the key in its entirety anyhow. -Keyless4u

Hello! Surprisingly yes. I used this to replace my mother's key fob. The only hard thing was that it was a little difficult closing the fob once I placed the internals :) inside. It may have been due to my lack of strength. It saved us a lot of money letting the dealership take care of it.

No. You need to take it to a dealer or independent that has a Tech2 tool. They will be able to program the fob. I believe the existing key has to function well enough to start and run the car. If not, you may have other issues.

Contact S&I Remotes directly. They are very helpful and will be able to tell you the exact FOB you need.

No, you need a dealer for that unless you swap out the old circuit board to the new fob.

you need to open the key fob. There is a tiny hard to find clip on the side. This separates the key from the computer chip. Inside is a barely visible number which will tell you exactly which key fob you need. You cannot use any key except the one which the code matches. The code is semi transparent and almost looks like a smudge. Also the replacement fob may look different than the original. It is the product codes which must match.

No, the front panel comes off the key, but the key itself it encased within plastic to the back of the key. You'll want to take your old key battery and electronics, move it to the new key and will need to cut it. Check your model of car, but you will likely need to cut out the engine disable chip from the old key. I used a combination or razor, pliers, and a bit of fine sand paper, but it basically destroys the original to get it out of there.

There is a screw in the uncut key I received. Be aware, to get the key cut is expensive. It cost me $50 and broke within 8 months. The original lasted 15 years. The metal is not anchored well into the plastic due to the design. You will not see the design problem until it breaks. I fix mine by using WaterWeld putty and protected the fob with tape. To replace the battery will require cutting the case apart. With a fresh battery along the age of the car, this is not an issue.

I was told by mechanic that the numbers on the back of the key fob must match the numbers on the original key fob or it most likely WILL NOT work. That being said, I removed the guts from the new one, put the guts from the original one inside the new case and it has worked extremely well. Hope that helps...

Yes you can use the old part in this key. In fact I had bought it because my plastic piece had broken. I put the old electronic parts in this new shell. The metal key though is glued hard to the shell so I had to have the key cut out to match the old one (Honda dealer cut it for free). Nevertheless quite happy in the end, worth buying.

I bought this product and still have not installed it for that reason I don't want to carry an extra key. If you call your local locksmith they can get the correct lock to replace the ignition switch to match your key you currently have. ( I realized this after I bought the product. )

Sorry for delay in response - it got lost in my email. You can order a new key fob from Amazon - however, you will have to take it to the dealer to have it programmed - which can be very expensive.

Slide valet key out of FOB. Inside the old FOB, there is a grey latch, push this to the side to access battery. Once battery is out, you can see the electronic board inside the old FOB. Pull it out with a pair if needle nose pliers or a paper clip thorough the small hole in the board. Be careful not to damage the board. Reinstall in the new FOB in reverse order.
