Our PPV came with one very ratty-looking key fob that did not work. I'm trying to figure out how to re-pair the fob to the truck. I've found a couple of yutubes that show how to pair a new fob with the start button, but our PPV has NO start button. I did find this online step-by-step, but it is kind of confusing noting that after the pairing is done, you can use your new _key_ to start the truck:

The key in ours works, the FOB does not. I have a new one on order, but figure I'd at least try, and then have the procedure down when the new one shows up, with the one I have. Thanks for any pointers.

I have used that procedure before in a pre 2015 and it worked just fine. Its not that bad if you just follow the instructions. I don't know if it would be the same for your 2018 but you do not have a push to start so maybe. Or you may have to have the Dealer program it. Maybe someone will reply that knows for sure, there has to be a way to do it. Good luck and hope you get it figured out.

When you receive your new FOB, go to your local locksmith, and for about $25 and 5 minutes, you will be good to go.
