maybe they lost the program somehow.

or doe the pats work by recognizing a specific key?

i dont know much about the pats.




to program new keys yourself you need two working keys, but since this is a 98 you might be able to use one key. also they key doesn't get programmed, the PATs system is set up to recognize the key as the key is passive so it can't be programed. I am currently using a set of keys from a 98 SVT that I programmed for my car! if the keys don't work then the dealer would ahve to go into the PATs module and set it back up and program the keys into it, I have heard this takes an hour to do
