Default reprograming key fob/pin number

as the title , i am trying add another keyfob and change my key fob ,as i only have 1 key and don't know the pin/code


car is a 05 sti type uk , is there any way i can do it myself and not have to got to subaru dealer ? ,

I have tried this (below) using the keypad , but it doesn't seem to work , any idea's? thanks



Arm and then Disarm the system using the working Radio Key.
- Within 30 seconds of disarming, type into the keypad- *17856*91*2# where 2 is total number of radio keys to work the system
- Briefly press both radio keys in turn (the dash board LED will flash each time and the siren will bleep) Any radio keys not programmed here will no-longer operate the system.
- You should now be able to arm and disarm the system using all the radio keys programmed.

Keep trying as it can be tricky getting the button press timings and also ensure you get the relevant beeps when you should. If not start the whole process again and stay calm

Had a similar problem to this, but turned out i was using the wrong battery in my fob.

I ended up taking to subaru and they sorted in no time at all. Only charged me £3.50. Might be worth ringing your local dealership (if you have one) and see if they can help.

Using the instructions in the manual and the keypad does work but is a right pain. You have to be so spot on with your button pressing or you have to start again.

Have tried again, by the time I get to type the number 6 the key pad flashes instead of 1 flash , can't seem to get further than that,
Thanks for replies
