Key

Folks for the 14' RT n up, are the keys proximity like cars are today?

If you're asking how far the chipped key can be from the ignition and still contact the D.E.S.S. system; it still pretty much has to be touching whatever dummy key you're using to turn the switch...

Gotcha! So it has a key just like the others? Can you take a pic of your setup? Are they different than the RS? Sorry just some before upgrade questions

The only difference between the 2014 key and previous years is the type of transponder chip used. It is my understanding the 2014 key uses a rolling code chip that is a lot harder to make a clone copy of. The range is the same maybe an inch if conditions are good.

That's the difference... the rolling code! :gaah:
Here's the explanation that I received...

I think they can be cloned with the proper cloner and cloneable chip;
I have neither.

The 2008 thru 2013 models have a TP04 chip that I can clone onto my
TP05 cloneable chips. Your 2014 model has a TP12 Crypto chip and
requires a newer type cloner and the proper cloneable chip.

Will your decision to upgrade depend on the key? :popcorn:

:agree: It may be an unusual question; but certainly not an unreasonable one. ;)

Oh not at all. Was just wondering as my dad has a key he only had to keep in his pocket. Didn't know if it was the same!
