FAQ

Key Fob Programming — FAQ

Can you reprogram my fob if it just stopped working?

Yes — fobs lose sync when the battery is dead for a long time or after a car battery disconnect. We re-pair the fob to the BCM in a few minutes. If the fob is physically damaged, replacement is the path forward.

I just need a fresh battery — do you charge for that?

If we're already on-site for another job, battery replacement is included. As a standalone visit, we don't typically dispatch just for a battery — most parts stores swap them for $5–$10 in the parking lot.

Is OEM better than aftermarket for a fob?

For lock/unlock/panic functions, modern aftermarket is reliable and saves money. For factory keyless-go (smart key, push-to-start), we strongly recommend OEM or OEM-remanufactured for signal reliability.

Can you program a fob without the original key?

Yes, with diagnostic-tool access. That said, programming the very first key on an all-keys-lost vehicle costs more because the immobilizer module has to be put into 'add new key' mode using OEM security data.

Locked out or lost your keys? We can be there in 20–45 minutes.
