Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

In fact, the CGT used the same alarm system as the 996/986.
Leading evidence: 'Use same alarm system as the 996/986' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use different programming procedure than the 996 cars' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I called Sunset, they told me that the Carrera GT uses a different programming procedure than the 996 cars, so their keys don't come with key tags.

I was hoping to use the new key's electronics since I have one dead key...
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

One of my keys is bad- so I ordered a Carrera GT key (with the guts) from a dealer. It didn't come with the tag that has the 24 digit code on it for programming...
Do these Carrera GT keys not come with the tag, or is this a one off issue?
Any way to determine the code without the tag?
I would assume that this is an error on the dealer's part- I did read about someone else's GT key not coming with the code tag...
Can anyone confirm that they've bought a GT key that had the key code tag?
I called Sunset, they told me that the Carrera GT uses a different programming procedure than the 996 cars, so their keys don't come with key tags.
Can anyone confirm their Carrera GT key came with a code tag attached?
I bought the key head, not the blade. That's my intention, I like the CGT key head, and I have one bad key, so I wanted to program the CGT key to work on my car...
Gert-
Thank you for the info, that's what I thought. Would you happen to have something from the CGT manual that shows the same programming sequence as the 996?
Just look in the PET, you will see that the part nr of the US/CGT alarm is the same as the US/996.
The code card that comes with the CGT key also has a 996 part nr, the same part nr as a 996 replacement key head.
Excellent, thank you.
I found the attached document- am I reading this correctly in that you can determine the key code for a key with an unknown key code? (hope that makes sense...)
I called Suncoast- they say they are pretty sure the CGT key comes with the code tag.
So I told Sunset that, they ordered a new key, and I shipped the tagless key back to them.
Now, if the replacement key doesn't have a tag...
I'll let you all know what happens. I'd really like to have the CGT head with NEW internals. Seems silly to put my 8 year old electronics into a new CGT key that comes with new internals...
