We bought a 2000 Grand Caravan which has Idenity Theft installed. The factory service manual and online instructions for programming a remote key fob are not working. I purchased 2 remote fobs as none came with the caravan. We have very thoroughly followed the instructions for programming the fob. The problem is that we do not hear a beep after releasing the Panic and Unlock buttons as instructed and the programming is not in effect. We have tried this several times during the past 2 weeks. Please advise me as to what we may be doing wrong.

Thanks,

 

The self programming feature only works for making a 3rd key when you have 2 working FOB or master keys that were already programmed and working with the vehicle. You will need to go to the dealer or a locksmith that specializes in making automobile keys for newer vehicles.

 

When they closed so many auto dealerships our small town lost the 4 that were located here. We decided to call the nearest Chrysler/Dodge dealer to see about having the remote fobs programmed. They gave us a 'same day' appt so we drove down to their business and they programmed our remotes for us for $50. I feel that was a fair price and I am happy to have the remotes working.
