Fobs and smart keys, programmed on site
Modern car keys are small computers. A key fob or push-to-start smart key has to be programmed to your car, or it won't unlock the doors or start the engine. We bring the programming equipment to you, so there's no tow and no dealership wait.
What we program
- Push-to-start smart keys
- Remote key fobs
- Remote head keys
- Transponder chip keys
- Flip keys
- Spare fobs
Lost your only fob?
In most cases we can program a new fob or smart key even if you've lost every one, so you can drive away without a tow.
Get a spare before you need it
Adding a spare while you still have a working fob is quicker and costs less than replacing your only one.
Makes and models
We program fobs and smart keys for most makes and models. We don't currently service German cars (BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche) or motorcycles.
Pricing
Car keys, including fobs and smart keys, start at $150, plus our $25 service call. The final price depends on your car and the type of key.
My fob works but seems weak. Do I need a new one?
Often it's just the battery. If the buttons still don't work with a fresh battery, the fob may need to be replaced and programmed.
How long does programming take?
Most fobs and smart keys are cut and programmed in a single visit.
Can you program a spare if I still have my fob?
Yes. It's quicker and costs less than replacing a lost fob.
Which cars don't you work on?
We don't currently service German cars (BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche) or motorcycles.
Locked out? We're open 24/7.
Call and we'll come to you anywhere in the East Bay, or text us a photo of your lock.
