Professional Chip Key & Fob Programming for Your Vehicle

Modern vehicles rely on advanced security systems, and your key is a big part of that system. Automotive chip keys and key fobs use transponder technology to communicate directly with your vehicle’s computer. If the chip isn’t programmed correctly, the car simply won’t start.

We provide automotive chip key programming, key fob replacement, and key cutting services for most makes and models. Whether you need a replacement key, a spare fob, or programming for a key you already purchased, we’ve got you covered.

What Are Automotive Chip Keys?

Chip keys (also known as transponder keys) contain a small electronic chip inside the head of the key. When you insert the key or push the start button, the chip sends a signal to your vehicle’s computer system. If the signal matches what’s stored in the system, your vehicle will start.

Most vehicles manufactured in the last 20+ years use chip key technology as an added layer of theft protection. If a key is not programmed correctly, the vehicle’s computer will block ignition.

Vehicle Computer Scans & System Checks

Because chip keys communicate with your vehicle’s onboard computer, problems can sometimes go beyond the key itself. That’s why we also offer vehicle computer scans.

Our diagnostic scans can:

Check the health of your vehicle’s computer system

Identify communication issues between the key and vehicle

Detect other electronic issues that may affect starting or security

This extra step helps ensure your new chip key or fob works reliably.
