How to Program a Subaru Key Fob

If you own a Subaru key fob that has buttons that don't work the way you want them to, it's likely to be a dead battery. Capitol Subaru's Service Center can replace the battery that is dead and help you program a new key if required.

Tom Wimmenhove who is an electronic designer at Subaru, has discovered a flaw with the way Subaru key fobs deal with code. They don't "roll" codes as other auto manufacturers.

Keyless Entry

It doesn't matter if you want to put your keys in a safe location or you are worried that someone might try to take your car away the technology is designed to provide peace of thought and maximum safety.

The way it works is quite simple. If your key fob is within the range of an electronic sensor, it transmits an audio signal to the sensor. If the signal is legitimate, the car will lock and unlock as needed.

You can also change the keyless access setting via the multi function display (models with "keyless access with push-button start system") to restrict the operation of the trunk and doors with the key fob. Consult your SUBARU dealer for details.

Despite the fact that you require a physical key or key fob to start your Subaru, keyless entry allows you to get into and out of your car easier.

It's also a fantastic feature for those who don't enjoy carrying around a lot of keys when they go out camping or hiking, because the key fob will unlock your trunk and open your door with just one click.

Remote Start

The engine will shut down automatically after 5, 10 or 15 minutes, irrespective of how much does a subaru key fob cost you manage the vehicle.

When you return to your car after an afternoon of skiing, you'll find it warm and comfortable. Additionally, you won't need to scrape ice off of your windshield ever again! Remember to lock your vehicle when you leave it for the day, so someone else doesn't drive it away when it's running. Also, ensure that you are aware of how to turn off the remote's start by using your key fob, or an app.

Car Locking

When you're leaving your vehicle in a parking space or driving to a conference, a simple press of the lock button on your key fob will ensure everyone's safety. Subaru vehicles are equipped with an innovative system that blocks the steering wheel from turning unless there's a key in the ignition. It's an additional safety feature that helps prevent theft by hotwiring your vehicle. This feature is especially helpful when you're on the middle of a busy parking lot.

This is the code required to program your new subaru key or replacement key fob.
