Transponder Keys Most of
the newer vehicles use keys known as TRANSPONDER KEYS. These
keys have computer chips built into them. Usually under the
plastic or rubber coating on the head of the key. There are
also transponder keys with built in remotes. On many of the
cars, you must have two existing keys in able to add another key
yourself. There are a few that only require that you have one
original key. If you do not have these keys available, a
special computer is required to add keys. Obviously, if you do
not have any keys, the computer is necessary to program in any
keys. There are some vehicles that require replacing or what
we call "reflashing" of the vehicles computer before any
keys can be made. We stock almost all of the transponder keys
and can advise of what is required for your specific vehicle.
In many cases, we can actually cut you a key with your supplied
information and you can program it yourself.
Transponder Key Fobs
(Keyless)
Several of the latest vehicles
have come out with a keyless system. On these, you just have a
REMOTE that will function as a normal remote and also as a keyless
system. You just get in and push a button or turn a
switch. All these vehicles have a "real" key as a
backup. Some will actually let you start the vehicle and
others will only unlock the car and not let you start it. We
stock many of these devices. Contact us with any questions you
might have. As there are many options available, be very
specific with your information. We need to know the year,
make, model and exactly what came with your car.
Ignition Locks
We stock ignition locks for most
vehicles. You can order a replacement lock that will work with
your existing key or one that takes a different key.
The Transponder
Book
This book tells you all about
which transponder keys are used in each type of car. It also
reviews the different types of transponder chips used and which keys
use what chips. There is information on cloning and
re-chipping keys. This book can answer almost any question
regarding transponder keys.
Laser Magic High Security Key
Generation System
We have produced a system that
allows you to make high security auto keys without having an
expensive high security code machine. All you need is a
standard code machine like a Framon, HPC or ITL and a high security
duplicator.
Videos
Want do do some things
yourself? We have produced a few BASIC videos that show you
how to remove some vehicle locks. There are some vehicles that
have specific lock problems. We have a few videos that will
help you to get the lock to turn so the it can be replaced or taken
in for repair. NOTE: These are only temporary
solutions. I can guarantee that if you do not follow up with a
permanent fix, the problem will get worse and you will not be able
to use the tricks shown and the repair costs will rise greatly.
