Programming Key Fob 06 325

[jamiec32]

Can you program a used key fob to your current car? I bought a used key fob for my 06 325I hoping I could make it work with my car,at least have the door locks work?

Thank you!

So replaced the battery in my fob and locks still won't work...is there any procedure that needs to be done once you replace the battery? Someone had been in this fob before,was glued back together but looks like original battery was in it. I am thinking there must be other issues with it

The keys are ordered from the dealer per vin, so another used key I don't think can be assigned to another car. I not know of any initializing procedures for the newer keys. The frm modules are pretty sensitive and can just die, there was an extended warranty on these parts to say I think 10yrs or 120k, you have to run the vin at the dealer to se it it's attached to the vehicle history and of course it needs to be diagnosed first.
