Step 1. Key Programming
NOTE: For vehicle security, this product requires the use of Xhorse professional equipment during the initial installation.
If you’re an automotive locksmith, make sure you have a battery and a pressing tool ready – tweezers are highly recommended for this process, and any Xhorse generation matching device.
If you’re an individual car owner, the first-time installation will require assistance from a professional automotive locksmith or repair shop to complete the process.
Here’s taking VVDI Key Tool Plus for demonstration.
It’s that simple! Now let’s dive into the operation steps using a BYD vehicle.
Insert the Bluetooth Key Remote Module with the battery installed.
Remote Program >> BYD >> Han ID46/4A 433.92 >> Generate
Burn success.
After generating, check the chip and frequency.
If successfully identified, proceed to the next step.
If the module is not recognized, it indicates that it is in a disabled state.
In this case, insert it back into the OBD port, pair it with the phone’s Bluetooth and use the phone to unlock the car once to activate.
Immo programming >> BYD >> 2021-(new) >> Smart key programming >> Start programming >> Key programming
Key number: 2
User the new smart key(Bluetooth Key Remote Module) and hold it close to the induction coil.
Programmed successfully.
Next, you can test the remote module.
Make sure it has the battery installed during the testing process.
If the test is successful, you’re all set!
Step 2. Bind The Device
Download and install the SmartKey Box app.
Note:
Programming completed, battery must be removed before using it.
Insert the device into the car’s OBD port, open the app and connect the device.
Then, pair the device with your phone through learning mode.
Step 3. Write OBD Diagnostic Program(Optional)
Enter “OBD diagnosis”, select the corresponding vehicle model and write the OBD diagnostic program to the device.
Note:
If your vehicle model is not currently listed in the supported models, it will not affect the functionality of your phone’s digital key. You simply won’t be able to access real-time vehicle and fault information. We are constanttly working to expand support and will provide updates as they become available.
Once you’ve completed these steps, the device is good to go!
Programming a new key for your Alfa Romeo Stelvio (2018-2023) can be a straightforward process if you know where to locate the bypass connection. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to program a key without removing the instrument cluster, using a FCA 12+8 bypass cable with 2-pin.
Tools You’ll Need
Xhorse Mini OBD tool (or a compatible key programming device)
FCA bypass cable (with 2 pins, black and red wires)
Basic prying tools
The Mini OBD tool is used to read the vehicle’s pin code and program the new key. The key programming process involves placing the new key in the bottom section of the center armrest and pressing the unlock button.
NOTE: Xhorse FCA bypass cable does not have 2-pin. You can use xtool/obdstar FCA 12+8 bypass cables or Lonsdor L-JCD Cable.
