1. This does not work on Canadian Cars 2. The white sticker / sticker hooked onto the Legacy Key both have the wrong programming code for this remote. (Highly unlikely?) Anybody out there with a 2012 Canadian WRX able to successfully program the key? Or do I need to buy a Canadian Legacy key? As for returning the key, I don't know if I can. The guy at Chaplins knows I own the WRX (from the VIN ). Unless I can somehow take it to other dealerships or talk to some other Internet parts guy from Chaplins... |

to check the FCCID. To my surprise, my stock teardrop remote has a FCCID of NHVWB1U711 which gives a transmitter frequency of 433.92 MHz. The 2011 Legacy Key with FCCID CWTWB1U811 has a transmitter frequency of 315 MHz!!! What is the US Spec teardrop remote's FCCID? Edit: After reading your whole thread between you and bjkeed21, it looks like the Canadian cars never got the newer remotes. We don't have TPMS, so maybe we never got the upgrade. Can this still be done without changing the keyless unit itself inside the car? Last edited by Karce.; 08-22-2012 at 02:56 AM. |

Update:
If anyone needs a brand new 2011 Legacy Key, please PM me. I purchased it new from Subaru Geniune Parts but I doesn't work on my car as I am from Canada. |

I finally finished my key! Maybe xluben can update his original post for us up North.
For Canadians: Our cars never got the TPMS in them (as of 2012 WRX) and therefore the remotes have not changed in the 2011+ models. You need to buy a 2012 CANADIAN Legacy key! The US vs CAN remotes run on different frequencies so they won't work with each other. |
