I have a working key fob SKE13E-02 but lost the spare. I have purchased a used fob from eBay and was wondering if there is a way to wipe it and reprogram it for my vehicle? Is there an OBD device which will allow me to do this myself, or will I need a pro?

Also, i just discovered that the used key I purchased is an earlier SKE13E-01 model. However, it's in great condition and it looks identical to the SKE13E-02 from the outside.

Can it be reprogrammed for my 2016 CX-5?

If not, can buy an non-OEM replacement from eBay and add the electronics inside it to the SKE13E-01 casing to give me a working Mazda- branded key fob?

The used SKE13E-01 I purchased from eBay is in better condition than my existing SKE13E-02. Can I move the electronics from my -02 to the -01? Will they fit or are they completely incompatible?



Many thanks for your help.

 

You will need either need to visit a Mazda dealership or an advanced mobile automotive locksmith to programme the remote/fob to your vehicle.
