I bought a 2005 Neon for my daughter last week. It was the cheapest car I could find that seemed to be in good shape.
The problem is the key has some sort of security mechanism, a chip or resistor or something along that line. I made a copy but it won't work because it is on a standard blank.
I found the fancy blanks for sale for less than 20 bones, but the seller says you can't program it yourself unless you have two working keys, which I don't.
So my questions for those more familiar with this stuff - should I talk to a Dodge dealer or a locksmith? And what should this cost? I don't want to get taken.
