Nope, stupidity mainly. My car had no keys at all AND I swapped the XR BEM for a Fairmont Ghia BEM. In SmartShield cars swapping BEM's requires matching them with the ECU. Forscan now does this while programming keys which is a bonus!

I haven't played fully with Forscan, wasn't using a laptop but an old PC with 22" monitor setup in the car ![]()
