Introduction
In this guide, I’ll walk you through programming a new key for your Dodge vehicle using a simple key kit. This method is applicable for various Dodge models, and you won’t need to visit a dealership. Let’s dive in!

What You Need
Before we start, gather the following items:
- Simple Key Kit
- Current working key
- New key (cut at a hardware store)
Ensure the seal on the easy installer is intact. If it’s missing or says “void,” return the kit for a new one.
Activation Process
First, activate the new key using a code specific to your Dodge model. Follow these steps:
- Press lock and panic simultaneously on the new key.
- Enter the activation code using lock, panic, and unlock buttons.
- Press lock and panic again to confirm the code.
If the light blinks back your code, you’re ready to proceed. If not, try again until you get it right.
Pairing Process
Now, let’s pair the new key to your vehicle:
- Locate the OBD port under the dashboard.
- Ensure the vehicle is off, in park, and hazard lights are on.
- Set the dial position on the easy installer (refer to the chart for your vehicle).
- Insert the original key and start the vehicle.
- Remove the seal from the easy installer and plug it into the OBD port.
- Wait for three beeps, then turn off the vehicle and remove the old key.
- Insert the new key and turn it to the on position.
- Press the button on the easy installer and wait for three beeps.
- Turn off the vehicle, remove the new key, and press the button again to hear a chime.
Both keys should now be working. You can pair up to eight keys using this method.
- 3V, 280mAH, 2 pack
- D:24.5mm, H:3.0mm
