The part numbers needs to match identically normally. But if the all the engines system is the same in both cars you should be able to program it. Needing a second key changes model to model. If you have a metal key, most likely you will need another one.

It does but not in all models or type of ecu. Sometimes it needs to be online programmed using IDS or FJDS.
after parameter reset which function u used to program smart key [all key lost or add key]?
I didn’t have to reprogram the key to start the car. Two types of parameter resets were enough. Because key information is not stored in PCM.
Unfortunately it give me error ... And took it to key programming guy.. the issue I'm facing now is bad fuel consumption since I changed my module 😢
