How to Reprogram Dodge Keyless Remotes
Dodge vehicles equipped with power door locks and keyless entry systems come standard with remote controls for locking and unlocking the vehicle doors. As the remotes age, they may need to be replaced or reprogrammed to continue being used with the keyless entry system. A Dodge dealership can program replacement remotes or reprogram existing remotes for a fee. The programming process can also be performed by the vehicle owner at home if a second working remote is available.
