Long overdue for a spare fob?
Don't want to pay the "Porsche premium" for an OEM fob?
Don't want to deal with programming?
No PIN code?
Adding fobs is traditionally done using the factory in-car programming procedure to "teach" the fob’s ID to the immobilizer. This process requires the 4-digit PIN code that came with the car and the ability to successfully navigate a series of timed ignition keystrokes. This takes practice, and the alarm can easily be triggered in the process, further complicating matters. Even with practice and the correct PIN code, an increasing number of owners find they can't program fobs due to a faulty ignition lock assembly.
Many resort to a specialty shop. But this comes at an additional cost and a significant effort by the owner to remove and reinstall the seat, security bracket, and immobilizer—not to mention the risk of damage and vehicle downtime. Faced with these challenges, many continue driving without a backup fob.
Sound familiar?
The F 2 overcomes all of these obstacles because it requires no programming.
What Makes the F 2 Different?
When you add a fob in the traditional way using the factory procedure, you pair it to the immobilizer. When you add an F 2, you pair it to another fob. By learning from a fob that’s already been through the programming process, the F 2 avoids the programming challenges, and lets you get up and running in seconds.
Setting up an F 2 is incredibly easy: simply hold the F 2 and a "donor" fob (one that's paired to the car) next to each other and hold both buttons down until the LED on the F 2 starts flashing. That’s it! A 10-second, no-hassle, backup.
How do I use the F 2?
Since both fobs share the donor fob's ID, you need to "select" the fob you want to use by pressing it 3 times near the car. Once selected, the fob functions like you expect: one press to lock, one press to unlock. This selection process is only necessary when you switch fobs. You can switch back and forth as often as you like, but it’s really optimum in situations where one fob is the "primary" and the other is the "backup".
