How to remove Admin Keys

[hedgehog99]

It appears that I have 4 Admin Keys. I admit that I still don't have a firm grasp of PAAK, MyKey and Admin Key. I assume of the 4, one is my wife, one is my old phone, and one is my current phone. But I thought Admin Key and MyKey are physical Key (Fob). Is this incorrect? I don't want to reset MyKey entirely, is there some way to trim the Admin Key down to 2?

Nope, a dealer will have to clear out all the key fobs and then reprogram only the ones you want to use.

But how did I get 4 in the first place? It only came with 2 key fobs.

Somebody might have lost the key fobs along the way and had to get two new ones.

Cant this be done with FDRS or Forscan?

2 fobs + 2 PaaK = 4. Unless you make one or more of the keys a MyKey or remove/reset the PaaKs that's what you have. Unless you let someone you don't trust drive your car I would totally ignore MyKey. Or use Forscan to disable it so you never see it again.

2 fobs + 2 PaaK = 4. Unless you make one or more of the keys a MyKey or remove/reset the PaaKs that's what you have.

PaaK doesn’t count against the limit of 4 fobs that can be paired to the car.

I didn't say anything about a limit, just the number of admin keys displayed on Sync.
