They look at the vin on the car and assume the vin is the same as the dme/immobilizer. Therefor they program the key wrong.

Can you confirm that the tip is a separate control unit?

Finally got all the old stuff out and found an 01 S electronics set on eBay for an auto trans.

Going to order it since I haven't sent my stuff to be repaired yet. Good thing for 30 day returns!
