    Are you referring to reprogramming to central locking or immobiliser?
    In keyfree cars there will be a location (usually indicated by a key logo) where the key can be placed so that the immobiliser chip can be detected in the case of a dead fob battery and for central locking pairing.
    For the immobiliser a programming module is needed.
    You are best off calling on an auto locksmith who should be able to sort you out for a reasonable fee.
