Auto Parts: Using instructions for auto key of Hyundai Santa Fe, hyundai santa fe, pep boys


Question
Hi, can someone help me?
I have a car Hyundai Santa Fe from 2001 /Gold edition/. I have problem with my car alarm key /appearantly original from Hyundai/. Unfortunatelly, I use its only one button for locking and opening. But there totally 4 buttons. The previous owner told me that I can use it for activating and deactivating alarm, starting engine from a distance /e. g. to warm up in cold seasons/ etc. I was trying several combinations, but it did not work.
I would highly appreciate if someone could help me with instructions.

Kind regards,

Answer
Hi Batzorig,

ALL factory key FOBs come pre-programmed. Your FOB and head-unit are most likely aftermarket.

Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
