Steps in Car Key Replacement
Key Type Identification
The first step in making replacement car keys and FOBs is identifying the type of key and FOB your vehicle requires. There are different types of keys, including traditional keys, transponder keys, and proximity keys, each requiring specific programming and cutting techniques. FOBs, on the other hand, can have various functions like remote start, keyless entry, and trunk release, all of which need to be programmed correctly.
Key Cutting
Once we’ve determined the type of key and FOB needed, we can move forward with the replacement process. For traditional keys, a straightforward cutting and duplication process is usually all that’s required. However, transponder keys and proximity keys need to be programmed to communicate with your vehicle’s immobilizer system. This ensures that only your specific key will start your car, preventing theft.
Programming
When it comes to FOBs, programming is essential to ensuring all functions work correctly. This typically involves syncing the FOB to your vehicle’s security system and programming any necessary buttons for remote start or trunk release.
