I received my flip key from ebay from dsp.store : this one to be exact Folding Remote Key Case for KIA Soul Forte : eBay Motors (item 180492734304 end time Apr-18-10 09:05:22 PDT)
Everyone had been saying that you need to open the key in order to take out the chip in it, otherwise even with the key cut inside of the flip key, it would not start the engine, however I left my keys on my desk in my office and went out to my car and was able to start the car with the flip key with no chip in it...
Now my keys were at least 30 feet from the car I would guesstimate, which is a lot further than I would expect the chip to work from, so I am wondering why this is? Do I really not need to transfer the chip?
