How does the key replacement service work?
Almost all car keys will need programming to your vehicle. Most people have no idea there is an immobiliser on their vehicle and often confuse an immobiliser with the remote locking fob on their key. An immobiliser is a factory fitted security measure that prevents thieves from being able to steal you car, without having the keys. The immobiliser works seamlessly without any action from the user.
Your car key will contain a ‘transponder chip’ embedded and hidden in the plastic head. When you turn the key to start the car the chip is read and checked by the on board immobiliser unit and gives a green light for the car to start. If you choose to secure a replacement car key through the main dealer you will have to tow your car into their garage to have the key programmed.
Many dealers neglect to tell customers this.
I have heard hundreds of stories from customers telling us that the dealer took their money for a replacement car key and only explained they would need to bring the car in for coding when they went to collect the key. This is an additional cost and a massive inconvenience. This is why we offer a mobile service for replacing car keys and are able to save you time, cash and a whole lot of grief.
So exactly how does it work with Loxtra’s auto Locksmiths?
First we make an appointment to come out to wherever the car is (this will be a time that is convenient for you).
On arrival at your car we will either cut a key from a code we have obtained from a dealer. Or remove a vehicle lock to see how the key needs to be made. If we need to remove a lock and your car is locked we will use specialist techniques and tools to gain entry without causing any damage.
Once we have made a working key we will then proceed to programming the key into the car. Some cars require an ‘immobiliser code’ to program the key. We will extract the code from your car with sophisticated software or obtain it through a main dealer where possible.
The whole process is completed onsite at your vehicle. And normally within two hours of your phone call – That’s why you should use Loxtra Locksmiths for your replacement or spare car keys.
