The service

What is

A key fob is the remote that locks and unlocks your car. On many cars it also starts the engine with a push button. A new or replacement fob must be programmed to your car before it will work. We bring the programming tools to you.

Makes and models we program: [VERIFY which makes and models you program].

When you need it

  • You changed the battery and the fob still does not work
  • You bought a replacement fob and need it set up

Common questions

Is it just the battery?

Try a new battery first. If the fob still does not work, it may need programming or replacing.

Will my old fob stop working?

On some cars, programming a new fob clears the old ones. Bring every fob you have so we can program them all at once.

I lost my only push-to-start key. Can you help?

Call us. See car key replacement for what we need to make a new one.

Can you program a fob I bought online?

Sometimes. Call us with the part number before you book, and we will tell you if it will work with your car.
