Update: it took me a few tries but each time I consistently got the locks to cycle using the key instead of the button on the inside of the door. And I finally got the Fob to pair on the final attempt. Not sure how exactly. I tried the holding both buttons for 1 second and holding the lock button for 2 seconds but it just kept cycling the locks as if it was telling me it was in pairing mode. I just kept pressing buttons until it paired and it works perfectly now so thank you so much for this video I have been using my key only for years now!!!

Also with this method I can only pair 1 key Fob at a time

i’m having the same issue man, if you found a solution let me nnwon

​@@ogpit6648​@ogpit6648 So just to let you know it finally worked. Very intentional up and down in a rhythm on the lock (driver side only) and for whatever reason it worked. Manually move the lock up and down with your hand as you work the switch. It took me 20-30 trys total over a few weeks lol

I got a new key transponder programmed and a key fob... So it is possible even with bum lock actuators

Have you found a solution? I’m having the same problem

@@meair my 01 sport has security but didn’t go off using key in door to cycle locks

Mine unlocks fine with the key still. I have a 2000 Limited

Travis Polston no you don’t have to remove it. It’s an option. The big bolts I’m pointing at just need to get loosen on both sides. Once they’re lose you can start shifting slowly. Then just tighten them back up. No more than 5 to 10 minutes.

Alrighty thanks bro
