Great video. Do the 2018+ Grand Cherokee's still need that OBD 2 programming module? I noticed that module shows up on your website for the 2014-2017, but not for the 2018-2022 models.
Hi there! Thank you for reaching out. Different vehicle years can indeed have different programming steps. To assist you better with your specific model, could you please send us an email at help@tomskey.com? We’d be happy to provide you with more detailed information. Thank you
@@chriskaosmusic I did not. Mine is actually a ‘21 and I have 2 fobs, but I came across this video and was just curious since it never hurts to have more spares lol. Needless to say, I haven’t had to email them.

I have a 2019 JGC limited only one of the 2 key fobs stopped working but only the key detected part is not functioning but on that fob it remote starts locks and unlocks the doors the other fob works perfectly what do u think is the problem??
Based on the information you've provided, it appears that there might be an issue with the key detection component of one of your key fobs for your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. Since the remote start, locking, and unlocking functions are working fine on that fob, the problem may be specific to the key detection or transponder component. To diagnose the issue and potentially resolve it, you may consider checking the battery in the faulty fob to see if it has sufficiently charged. A weak or depleted battery can affect key detection. Carefully inspect the non-functioning key fob for any physical damage, such as a cracked casing or damaged key blade. Physical damage could impact the key's functionality. Attempt to reprogram the key fob that's not working for key detection. There might be a simple synchronization issue that can be resolved through reprogramming. If you've exhausted all troubleshooting options and your key fob's key detection component is still not functioning correctly, it may be time to consider getting a replacement key fob.
@@TomsKeyCompany-DIY My original fob worked as it should. I purchased the simple key kit and followed the instructions precisely, connecting the OBD connector with ribbon cable and dial selector on 3 for my 2017 Cherokee. The new fob wouldn't connect after 3 tries (does nothing) and now my original fob will remote start, lock and unlock but car won't detect the fob - have to push the start button with the fob. Door won't unlock when I touch it with my hand and remote in my pocket either. What should I do to get my original fob back working the way it was? (fresh batteries in everything)

I'll bet that was a former rental vehicle. I went through this last winter when I bought a used 2020 Pacifica that was a former Enterprise vehicle. My C-J salesperson told me they never get two dibs when they but rental vehicles. I had the dealer make an OEM fob up for under $290. No other sources in my area were equipped to do the job. BTW, I live in a suburb of Detroit.

Hi there!

However, please note that there is currently no do-it-yourself programming solution available for this key. You will need to contact a local car dealership or automotive locksmith for assistance in programming it to your vehicle.
It might program, it might not. Depends if that particular fob requires being wiped clean before it can be re-programmed. Some brands it's as simple as programming to your vehicle and it will work. Others it requires a lot of effort to erase the prior vehicle from the key fob memory. I just don't know for this one. Order the kit - it comes with the programmer and one fob. You'll be able to get the fob from the kit programmed. Then you can try programming the one from eBay and you might end up with 2 spares.
