Key2GO
This feature is required if only one key is available. You can program the interface without the need for Key2GO if two keys
are present.
Key2GO has been designed and developed to bypass the advanced encryption layers found in modern vehicles. It uses an array
of servers to generate a duplicate of the original key, allowing the installation of a remote starter without having to give up a key.
The advantage is that this feature allows you to use one original key and the server to configure the bypass in the vehicle.
All Key2GO-compatible firmware are clearly indicated in the function list of each vehicle search result page and will also appear
on the flash page. Any first-time user must re-register to gain access to Key2GO, and some additional information will be required
to complete the registration process, such as your Directed account number and store name.
Key2GO is compatible with XKLoader2 and the online web tool, as well as XKLoader3 and the Directechs Mobile application.
Refer to “Module programming” of this guide for instructions on how to program features using Key2GO.
