If this is the case, and the RF code has been changed since you last started the car, wouldn't that theoretically (sp) make your SECOND remote useless? How would your SECOND remote know when to code hop with the original remote? Say you use your original remote 5 times, then used your SECOND remote to open your doors the 6th time U enter, how does the 2nd remote know what code to use now?
