Key Fits But Car Won't Start

The key turns, the engine tries, but it won't fire. The transponder chip may have failed. We diagnose whether it's the chip, the immobilizer, or something else entirely.

Dealer Scheduling Doesn't Work for You

Waiting days for a dealer appointment and arranging a tow? We cut and program the same transponder key with our mobile diagnostic lab—and come to you on your schedule instead of theirs.

"Key fob stopped working on my Chevy. Tech came to my work, tested the battery (it was fine), and reprogrammed the fob. Turns out the key had lost its programming. Fixed for way less than the dealer quoted."

Everything You Need to Know About Key Fob & Transponder Programming

Are you professionally insured? expand_more

Yes. Kwikey Locksmith is a fully insured professional entity. Every technician on our team undergoes rigorous background verification and continuous technical auditing to maintain our enterprise-grade service standards.

Are your replacement key fobs OEM or aftermarket? expand_more

We offer both options. OEM fobs are identical to what you'd get from the dealership. Aftermarket fobs are high-quality alternatives that provide a similar experience. Both work identically—we'll explain your options when we provide a transparent diagnostic quote.

Are your locksmiths background-verified? expand_more

Yes, every technician on our team undergoes rigorous multi-stage background verification and carries comprehensive professional insurance. We prioritize your security by ensuring our staff are verified experts in residential, commercial, and automotive lock systems.

Can you make keys for push-to-start vehicles? expand_more

Yes, we have the equipment to program smart keys (proximity keys) for most push-to-start vehicles. These keys communicate wirelessly with your car, so programming requires specialized tools we carry in our mobile units.

What is a transponder key and why does it require specialized programming? expand_more

A transponder key has a computer chip that communicates with your car's immobilizer system. If the chip signal doesn't match, the car won't start. The chip requires specialized programming equipment and expert configuration to ensure security.

My key turns hard in the ignition. What's wrong? expand_more

This usually indicates a worn ignition cylinder. If ignored, it can leave you stranded when the key stops turning entirely. We can repair or replace your ignition cylinder on-site. Most repairs take about an hour.

How Transponder Keys Work

Every time you insert your key and turn the ignition, a chip in the key sends a coded signal to your car's immobilizer system. If the signal doesn't match, the engine won't start. This excellent anti-theft feature also means you need proper programming—not just a key cut. That's what we do.

Don't Get Stranded Without a Transponder Spare

Operating with a single transponder key is risky. If you lose it, you're facing the 'all keys lost' process—programming from scratch takes longer. Get a spare now while cloning is simple and straightforward. We come to you and have it done professionally.
