I just got my truck back from the dealership after the RF module got wet from a leaking 3rd brake light. Only 1 key works but the guy at the dealership said to put the key that doesn’t work in the “key pocket” in the truck and drive around for 10 mins and it will program itself. Have any of y’all heard of this?

You need to have the non working key in your left pocket, functioning key not in the truck. Drive 10 minutes at 52mph. Turn truck off then hope it works.

It needs to be programmed to the new rfh, they should have told you this.

Ahh I had the non working key in my right pocket instead of left that’s why it never worked lol. Bad thing is I asked and told him my key didn’t work and he told me that
