My 2001 Freelander has 2 hard keys but just 1 Lucas 3TXA remote fob.

I'd like to program a second one I have bought privately.

Professionally, I am being asked £50 for it to be reprogrammed so that that I can use the new fob, and also the old one.

Is this a fair price?

I have also seen some Do-It-Yourself instructions, appended below.

Questions:

When the guide refers to the flashing LED in step-9, does this mean the LED on the dash?

Second, step-10 says hold down the button on the fob - well there's two bottons on the Freelander fob, which one do I hold down.



Procedure

1. Ensure ignition is OFF, doors unlocked, bonnet switch closed.

2. Ensure procedure from 3 to 9 is completed within 8 seconds.

3. Switch Ignition ON

4. Switch Ignition OFF

5. Lock Doors and Unlock Doors

6. Release Bonnet Switch

7. Switch Ignition ON

8. Switch Ignition OFF

9. If alarm is set, horn will sound and LED with light. Now programming of plips can be completed.

10. Press and hold down button on plip until LED flashes.

11. Repeat for additional plips.

12. The dash LED will extinguish if both plips have been programmed successfully.
