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.

"Key wouldn't come out of the ignition on my GMC Sierra. Steering wheel wasn't locked—it was the ignition switch. Kwikey replaced it in my driveway and now it works perfectly. No tow truck needed!"

Solving Key Fob & Transponder Programming Queries for Swarthmore

Why should I use a locksmith instead of the dealership? expand_more

We come to you—no towing needed. We're typically significantly more convenient than dealers. And we're available during operating hours, not just during business hours. Our keys are identical quality to dealer keys, programmed with the same professional equipment.

I lost all my car keys. Can you still help? expand_more

Absolutely. We can create a new key from scratch for most vehicles. We'll verify ownership, program a new transponder or smart key, and have you driving again. This is much more convenient than towing to a dealership.

Do you come to my location or do I come to you? expand_more

We maintain a fully mobile fleet of professional locksmith laboratories. Each unit is equipped with precision machinery for on-site key cutting, diagnostic computers for automotive programming, and a comprehensive inventory of high-security hardware to resolve your request in a single visit.

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 soon can you get to me? expand_more

Arrival times are subject to location, traffic conditions, and current dispatch volume. We prioritize emergency lockout requests and maintain a network of mobile technicians across the region to ensure a professional response. We provide an honest, professional arrival estimate during your initial consultation and maintain active communication as our technicians depart.

Need a chip key for your car? Skip the dealer wait. Kwikey Locksmith provides mobile transponder key cutting and programming throughout Delaware and Greater Philadelphia—as a convenient alternative to dealership scheduling. Professional service, at your location.

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.
