Basic Key Fob Questions
How long does basic key fob programming take?
Basic key fob programming takes 15-30 minutes. This includes cutting the key blade (if needed), programming the remote functions, and testing all buttons. We work efficiently while ensuring everything works perfectly.
Can you program a fob if I don't have any working keys?
Yes! We can program basic key fobs even if you don't have any working keys. We use professional programming equipment that can sync the fob with your vehicle's computer system. This is more complex but still doable on-site.
Will a new fob work with my existing keys?
Yes! New fobs are programmed to work with your vehicle's existing key system. Your old keys will still work, and the new fob will work alongside them. You can have multiple fobs and keys for the same vehicle.
What if my fob just needs a new battery?
If it's just a dead battery, we can replace it for $10-$20 while you wait. If the battery replacement doesn't fix it, we'll diagnose the issue and program a new fob if needed. We'll always try the simplest solution first.
