Default keyless entry

I had a '99 xj that was so I got a '00 this time. I still have the keyless entry fob from my '99 and was wondering if there was some way to make it work on my '00 xj.

The codes are specific from vehicle to vehicle.

Unless the fob is programmable, no.

If the vehicle was built with keyless entry, you just need a fob or and have them programed to the vehicle by your local dealer. Your local dealer can check your build sheet by VIN, tell you if it has keyless entry (probably does), sell you the fobs, and program them to your Jeep.....One stop shopping.

If it doesn't work, I have a fob for a 2000 I'll sell ya. I have an alarm now so no use for the original fob.
