Default Keyless Entry

Does anyone know how to program a keyless entry? I lost one of them & was given another, but don't know how to program it. I have one functional keyless entry. The pad is a 3-button control - lock, unlock & panic.

Thanks

Check the owners manual and see if the directions are there.
If not contact a stealer.

What year is your truck as 2005 and down are different then the 2006 setup. In a 2006 you need both key fobs or you can't reprogram a new one so you would need to pay a dodge dealer on 2005 down there is said to be a way to do so.

Keyless Entry: I guess it would help to know the year of our pickup. We have a '04 Dodge Ram 2500. I am trying to avoid the expense of a dealer reprogramming - my daughter recently reprogrammed hers from instructions she found off the web. So far, I haven't been able to find that info for our pickup. Thanks for any help.

also found this...

From the 2004 shop manual:

The following procedure can be used as long as one
programmed transmitter is available:
NOTE: When entering program mode using that
programmed fob, ALL currently programmed fobs
will be erased and they will have to be reprogrammed
for the vehicle. If program mode is
entered and no action is performed, the previously
programmed fobs will continue to function.
(1) Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
(2) Fasten the seat belt (this will cancel the seat
belt chime). Turn the ignition to the RUN position.
(3) Press and hold the UNLOCK button on a programmed
transmitter for 4 to 10 seconds. Within the
4 to 10 seconds with the UNLOCK button still
depressed, press the PANIC button for one second.
When a single chime is heard, release both buttons.
The chime indicates the system is in program
mode.
(4) Press and release both the LOCK and
UNLOCK buttons simultaneously on a fob to be programmed.
A single chime will be heard, this indicates
the fob has been recognized.
(5) Press and release any button on the same fob.
A single chime will be heard, this indicates the fob
has been programmed.
(6) Repeat steps 4 and 5 for up to a total of 4 fobs.
(7) Turn the ignition OFF.
(8) Turn the ignition ON or wait 60 seconds.
The vehicle will remain in program mode for up to
60 seconds from when the original chime (step 3) was
heard. After 60 seconds, all programmed transmitters
will function normally.
