Ridiculously easy to use

The good, the bad, and the ugly. First, I made three keys in less time than a traditional hardware store key. The process is easy BUT the instructions leave a lot to be desired. For example, the kit I purchased did not come with a key fob that required activation, nor did the other two key fobs purchased from a third party. Please note that the instructions DO NOT SKIP the fob activation process if your fob does not require it. Let me get to the point - just SKIP this step and follow the rest…

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Can't remember

Simple process and good remote control - compatible with others?

I bought several other remote controls and the locksmith programmed them into my car. They didn't have much range at all. When they died three years later, I only had an original key. With the original key and this kit I got it working in minutes. You must first learn the instructions and type of exercise in your head. You can't just run away and do it. However, it's still easy. If you have 2 keys on my car, you can program the third, fourth and so on. This one and my original don't program a…

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Small parts

Works great!

I easily programmed 3 new key fobs for my 2012 Ram 1500 Tradesman. Everything went so easily and just as described in the step-by-step process. The local hardware store wanted to charge me $199.99 for ONE programmed key fob! So $120 and $30 for 2 more keychains is a great deal! Even the original cut keys fit the key rings so I don't have to bother with cutting new ones (most places don't unless you buy them from them). Very satisfied! I was scared and skeptical, so I even went to YouTube to…

Pros
  • Superb design
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Lack of customer service

The concept seems great, the key fob itself seems fine but the dial on the nozzle wasn't centered on a number so we weren't sure where to start. We tried this twice, once with each number on the side the dial was pointing to for reference, but neither worked. Throughout the package were links to quick help from customer support. We called California while we were in the car, but they said it was an east coast number, so it wasn't available. On another attempt another day, the message…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Very expensive

Big savings over theft!

We bought a 2017 Ram 2500 a few months ago. Great truck, great deal, but it only came with one key. The local "thief" demands a lot of money for a new key fob. Even an on-site locksmith was significantly more expensive than this simple key option. It was quick and easy. Although this programmer only comes with one key fob and I wanted more, I went ahead and ordered a pair of key fobs (Aupoko GQ4-53T) for about $27. I have a little tip, be sure to follow the instructions and "ACTIVATE THE KEY"…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • weak

Works perfectly! - Keyless Entry Systems

UPDATE: I bought a used key fob that didn't have the blue flashing button like the Simpe Key. Nevertheless, I programmed according to the instructions and PRESTO worked! Here are two keychains that I successfully programmed with my programmer. Very happy with this purchase. First let me say that I was very skeptical that this would work. However, it worked! From the first time I tried it and started the truck it seems to be as good as my OEM FOB (2011 Dodge Ram) key. I watched the video on…

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Other Other

This is a good OEM alternative and we recommend trying it out.

I was able to program it to work with my RAM and it works. Now I can clean my factory and if I break or lose it I have a factory keyfob to program another. I gave it 3 stars because it took a lot more effort to set up than it should have. I really had a problem. where alternative keys (with remote start) did not work. I later found the contact sleeve for the buttons in the box. Contacts should be glued in the same way as the main buttons. - The instructions say the key fob should have…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Volume

The jury is still out on Interior

I'll try to come back and update this review but couldn't get this to work at the moment. When I tried I only had a metal key for my truck as it went through the auction and used car store where the keys disappear and you are lucky if you get more than one key. I wasn't aware of the key system for the 2014 Ram, Dodge, Chrysler key system where there is a metal key, but there is also a key fob (which had to be paid extra at the dealership) that actually fits in the keyhole. myself. So since I…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Blank
