re-programming key fob question

does programming a new fob alone cancel out other existing fobs that were programmed to that vehicle?

Hi
4 and half years on and I am having to finally take mine into the dealership to get a new remote programmed, along with a warranty recall. FYI the old syle remotes according to the dealership are no longer available, so its a good job I bought one 3 years ago. I will post when it is done.
 






Hallo,
I have to Explorers. First (1997) is with one button - see pictures





Second (1998) is with 2 or 3 buttons (I don´t know now) - it´s on spare parts. Can I change Remote Anti-theft Personality (RAP) Module from second to first?

Thanks for reply
 






Remote Key Fob programing

just got a new key fob from amazon for about 8 bucks, I followed the instructions exacly, EXCEPT I left the drivers door OPEN and it went into program mode after cycling the key 8times. I know everything says doors closed but a friend had done this before and told me and it worked for me. Mine would not go into program mode with the doors closed. It took about 30 seconds and the remote has worked great since. I have the 4 button remote but that shouldn't matter. Also, remember your not actually programming the keyfob, your programming your module in the vehicle to the keyfobs frequency, that is set when they are made. At least on my 02' the module can learn up to 4 different keyfobs.
