Key fob and remote programming
A new fob does nothing until it is paired to the vehicle. We program remotes, remote-head keys and push-to-start smart keys on site.
What we handle
- Replacement fobs supplied and programmed
- Push-to-start (proximity) smart keys
- Remote-head keys that combine the key and the buttons
- Fobs that stopped working after a battery change or a jump start
How it works
- Call with the make, model and year, and tell us what the fob is or is not doing.
- We check whether a new battery is likely to fix it before selling you a new fob.
- If it needs replacing, we quote the fob and the programming together.
- We program at the vehicle and test lock, unlock, trunk and start before we leave.
Common questions
- Can you program a fob I bought online?
- Sometimes. It has to be the correct part for your exact vehicle and not already locked to another car. We can try, but we cannot guarantee a fob we did not supply.
- My fob works up close but not from a distance. Is it broken?
- That is most often a weak battery. Try a fresh battery first — it is the cheapest fix, and we would rather you not pay for a new fob you do not need.
- Do all my old fobs still work after you program a new one?
- It depends on the vehicle. Some require every fob to be present during programming. Bring all the fobs you have so none of them get dropped.
