not sure where to post because it probably overlaps several subs..
Has anyone had success programming a 2022 Forester fob with low cost DIY/non-professional tools? This is the HYQ14AHK 4-button fob.
I'm asking about this specific model year, not the process in general.
I bought a kit from a reputable looking place, but the third-party dongle and app it uses does not allow me to select the pushbutton-start fob, only the crank key/door-only fob. This in spite of clearly claiming to support the pushbutton start version in their published literature.
I did a little research and saw posts that suggest the 2022 model year immobilizer authentication/protocol changed. So, even though it used the same fob for like 4 years, the 2022 can't use the same process as the others.
The dongle/app maker punts the support to the vendor. The vendor wants to help, but our schedules are not aligning, and I'm not really seeing anything that tells me they can make it work.
I'm running out of time to return the products, and hoping someone with more knowledge about it can weigh in. thanks
