    Does anyone know how many key fobs can be programmed to a 2nd gen 2010? Everything I have found on here only mentions 2 but I was hoping to have 3-4 fobs. Is there a limit?

    I think you can have two masters and a valet key.

    4 remote fobs.

    5 Master keys, 3 valet keys.

    The issue most people run into is not deleting the old fobs or keys.

    Great info, is there a process to delete old fobs. It lets me program 3 but once I use the OEM fob one of the extras stops working Leaving me with only 2 working

    You need Rewrite mode, not registration mode. I can't share the instructions but try searching for "Rewrite Mode"

    Ok so the searching for rewrite on here didn’t result anything but on the web I found that if you cycle the key to ON twice vs once, that puts you in rewrite. I tried that and it attached all 3 remotes but once I use the OEM remote, one of the additional remotes stop working. It’s the same one each time making me wonder if it’s that remote or if I’m not in the right sequence
