Car Key Programming
Although many drivers are unaware of this feature, most modern car keys are programmed to give you additional functionality. For example, in most cars made after the 90s, you can unlock or open the trunk from a distance. This is only possible because of car key programming, which allows your key to send a special signal to your car. Without programming, your car would not be able to recognize the signal, preventing others from using this feature to access your car. However, daily use or handling may accidentally un-program your car key and prevent you from using these valuable features.
In order to perform car key programming, you need to understand the reprogramming process for your exact make and model of the car. Some reprogramming processes may require you to perform several actions within a specific timeframe in order for it to work. Some people may try the process themselves, but without experience, you can’t be certain you’re doing the right thing, which often makes the process that much more difficult and frustrating. In some cars, you may even need specialized equipment and hardware to perform proper car key programming.
If you have noticed that the buttons on your car keys no longer work or only work infrequently, you may need car key programming. If you recently had a spare key made, it may also need programming so that it can work like your original key. Simply reach out to us and let us know the details of your situation.
