Default Programing a key FOB

Hey guys,
Just bought a Key FOB for my 2000 FRC. Now the instructions said to consult the owners manual to reprogram the key FOB. However after reading this, all it states is to hold lock and unlock to gether for 7 seconds. But this did lil to help me out. Any suggestions?

If I remember right, after you hold the lock and unlock buttons down at the same time your horn will beep confirming the key fob has been trained. Its been awhile since I have done mine.

I have a 1999 FRC, and in my owners manual there is a section on how to program key fobs.

Programming Transmitters Turn the ignition to ON. Turn the radio to OFF. Press the RESET button in order to clear any IPC warning messages. Press and release the OPTIONS button on the DIC to scroll through the display options until the IPC display is blank. Press and hold the RESET button for 3 seconds. Press the OPTIONS button until FOB TRAINING message is displayed. Press the RESET button in order to begin the programming sequence. The message HOLD LK + UNLK 1ST FOB will be displayed. Simultaneously press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the first transmitter for 15 seconds. The IPC will indicate when that transmitter is programmed and when to proceed to the next. Repeat this procedure for each additional transmitter or press the OPTIONS button to exit.

After matching FOBs to your car, re-synch them. Next page, 2-11.
