If I get a new "key" off Ebay, will it work in the Ram?

Can an old one get reprogrammed or do I need a new one?

Pretty sure that you program the truck to allow the key, not the key to match the truck.

I had the factory remote start added. The dealer programmed my original remotes and my new remotes to work. Only difference is my original remotes don't have a remote start button.
