Then close the other eye.

If you'll look carefully when you point you'll see that there are *two*
fingers out there pointing (unless you only have one eye).  When pointing,
our brain ignores one of them and selects the dominant eye as the "rear
sight".

I don't know of any wallet keys with the RF gadget, or the
resistor pellet. Wish there were. Yes, some of the RF key
head are a bit too large for my liking.

The only wallet keys with the chip that I have seen would be on the real
high end stuff like Lexus.

What I would suggest is to get a spare with the chip, stash that in the
trunk and then get the wallet key that will let you into the trunk.

What kind of car do you have?

I think that's highly dependent on the system. I had an after-market
immobilizer fitted to one of my cars and it can with a little
cylindrical widget about an inch long and 3/8" diameter which just dangled
from the same keyring as the key and was read by the immobilizer.

Are you sure your key doesn't do other stuff, too (remote door locking
etc. and therefore has a battery in it and other 'guts')? I've seen cars
where they'll supply two keys as standard - one that's just the
immobolizer/ignition and one that does all the other stuff too; the bigger
one's almost twice the size of the smaller...

My van came with ONE of those, and no other keys. It cost me $125 or so
at the locksmith on the way home, to get two smaller keys programmed
using the magic number the dealer gave me. And since idiot chrysler
expects everyone to carry around that huge key the size of a serving
spoon, only the driver door and hatch have lock cylinders. Major PITA.
Key isn't just huge, the tiny loop angled the wrong direction means you
can't put it on a key ring and carry keys in your pants pocket. Been
meaning to see if anyone sells an aftermarket fob that could be
programmed to talk to the van without killing the original huge key and
vanilla security keys. Maybe buy a used key off ebay or something, and
just cut the shaft off.

Never understood the purpose of remote locks that only work from a few
feet away. You are standing at the damn door anyway, and if keys are in
your pocket, you already have to set down whatever you are carrying with
that arm.

When my car was broken into, they left with me two dead keys by the time my
steering column was repaired.  I'm going to perform an "auto key autospy" to
see if the chip can be removed and encased in something slimmer.  Then I
might try it with a good key.

I've got a keyfob that does all that, and now that you remind me, I could
technically use that to get in and out of the car (unless the battery dies!)
and keep the RF enabled key hidden somewhere in the car.  The RF keys (it's
a 2002 Chrysler minivan) have no battery, just a bulbous head.

I just had a friend go through conniptions after locking his keys in the car
with the ignition on. It turns out that on that model Ford, when the
ignition is on, the keyfob doesn't work.  We finally got in by using a coat
hanger to push the power window button.  That incident reminded me I had
only one RF key for my van, and I ought to get a second one.

Actually, part of the problem is putting the poorly marked sockets and bits
BACK into their cases, which have much better markings.  I've started an
index card list of the sizes of the items around the house that always need
the occasional tightening so I can save myself the trouble of trying five
sockets to find the right one.  Owned a Jag and a Triumph before I swore off
British cars forever.  Got all those damn oddball sizes and know all the
jokes like: Why do the English like warm beer?  Because Lucas makes

You got off cheap.  My dealer wanted $125 for ONE key!  That's just

OK there are two ways to approach this one.  First is as I suggested would
be to stash the transponder key inside the car somewhere and use a standard
key for entry.  The second way would be to bypass the transponder system.
Here you could remove the antenna ring from around the lock and tape a key
inside and use a mechanical key to start the car.

This is not advised if you are in an area that you are likely to have a
minivan stolen, and your insurance company may very well balk if it is and
you file a claim and they find out you had bypassed the theft deterrent, but
the choice is yours.

Aha, OK. I'm not always that organized - half the time I end up with a
small pile of socket bits on top of the case, and every few months they'll
end up back where they should be :-)

:-) I've had several Triumphs, a couple of old British Fords, and worked
on many a vintage Rover... much of the problem was the vast number of
owners that many of these cars have had over the years though, and they'd
use whatever bits they could get their hands on to fix things. Although
Triumph's quality control could be a bit random too (and you wouldn't
believe the amount of casting sand I've pulled out of their engine blocks...

Oddly, I've never had much trouble with Lucas electrics, despite the
reputation.

Oh, I always wanted a classic Jag XJ6 or XJ12 but could never have
afforded to run it back in the UK, but of course it's a lot cheaper here
in the US (like, 1/8th of the cost) and I think they did export quite a
few, so I might find one this side of the Pond someday...

I sold my TR6 shortly after a neighbor's kid beheaded himself in a TR4.  Got
a used Ford LTD patrol car at auction - a heavied up version that could
probably roll right over a Triumph.  Only got 7 MPG, had a monstrous engine
in it and a trunk that was probably large enough to hold a disassembled
Triumph.  That was back when gas was 32 cents a gallon and no one had ever
heard of global warming.  Hard to believe.

> Oddly, I've never had much trouble with Lucas electrics, despite the
> reputation.

Neither have I, but there are enough similar jokes that I suspect there's a
grain of truth in it.  SU carbs were a totally different case.  Hope I never
see another one.  Every bad thing I had ever heard about them was true, plus
some things I had never heard.

Maybe.  I had a Mark X and belonged to the local Jag club.  I remember when
one of the guys invited me over to see his new XJ12.  I was standing next to
it when I asked him why the hood was so hot.  The answer was that it was
running!  I had no idea because it ran so quietly it made almost no noise.
Looking under the hood revealed a mass of cross-linkages the likes of which
I have never seen before.  It was the most complicated automobile engine
I've ever seen, before or since.  I wonder how long it stayed as ghostly
quiet as those first few 1000 miles.  With all the moving levers, I suspect
it wasn't long.  What I'd really like is an X-KE, but those are incredibly
expensive now, even old rusted through hulks.  I always thought Ford/Jaguar
could have made a fortune reviving that version, or one very much like it.

Some of the "chips" are an electrical resistor. And some are
a RF transponder. Depending which kind of car it is, and
what they were using. On some vehicles, replacing the column
should not change the resistor value. Not sure about the
transponders. I've got less learning about those.

When they returned the parts to me, one of them was labelled "immobiliser" -
yes, Brit spelling, dunno why.  I guess it's time for a post mortem on that,
too.  My understanding is that it's device like the little foil anti-theft
things they put into high priced items at Wal-mart and other similar stores
with electronic exit gates.  If the car's sensor doesn't detect such a
device during starting, the engine turns but never starts.

I found some instructions for a "Autotop Skim programmer" that's sold to
work around the problem that gives you an idea of how it works:

"This is a small standalone device that can overwrite the pin code stored
within the skim module fitted to Chrysler/Jeep & Dodge. This will then allow
new keys to be programmed into the vehicle.  The skim module is Chrysler
terminology for a combined immobiliser and aerial module.  Writing a new pin
code to the skim module involves removing the Skim module, which is located
around the ignition barrel, from the vehicle, which is a fairly simple
process. The pin code that is written to the skim module is a fixed code
that will be detailed with each kit. Once the new pin code has been written
to the module, keys can be programmed into the vehicle by using any
Diagnostics key programming tool which is fitted."

Not sure that helps me with two dead RF keys and one live one.  I don't like
the idea of having to leave the RF key hidden in the car, either, although
that will be the cheapest solution.  More research needed

Since my need for a spare key came about as a result of kids trying to steal
the van, and the insurance company only providing one replacement key, I
would have to say I live in an area where minivans are stolen.  (-:

I've been Googling all over to try to find the cheapest way to get a second
or third key made up, and it turns out that the equipment to do so would
cost as much or more as the getting the keys made from a locksmith, and
there's no guarantee they would work, either.

So, it's back to Google and then the phones on Monday to see who's got the
lowest prices on Chrysler minivan RF keys.

Thanks for your input, Roger.

Do you have the paperwork for the new column they put in? The 'magic
number' should be in there- with that, you can just start calling
locksmiths directly.

OK see your local locksmiths.  There will be two options here, one is to
clone the key you have and the second option is to have the locksmith
reprogram with standard keys.  You can get by cheaper if you go without the
remote buttons on the duplicate keys.

About the time I had mastered getting the toothpaste back in the tube, then
they come up with this striped stuff.

That is what I did, mainly to get smaller keys. Sure wish all the doors
had lock cylinders, though, like my old van. Or at least a separate fob
for the buttons, like it had.  Damn cheap Chrysler.

I hated them to, but not so much after the immobiliser kept a pair of
teenage kids from taking my van on a joy-ride to who knows where!  It was
bad enough that I had a very high deductible and it cost me nearly $500 to
get fixed, but that's much, much better than having the car savaged by
savages and left in a ditch somewhere after all the insides had been ripped
out.

Thanks for your input, I'll check out my local locksmiths first.
