Outback programming FAQ
Can you program a remote if I already have a working key?
Often yes (model dependent). If manual registration isn’t supported, diagnostic programming may be required.
Do you handle transponder and push-to-start keys?
Yes where fitted and supported. These typically require diagnostic programming.
Can you help with all keys lost?
Often yes (model dependent). Call with your year/model and we’ll confirm options.
