Transponder Key Reprogramming

Modern vehicles are equipped with transponder keys for added security, but when these keys fail or need reprogramming, it can leave you stranded.

Whether your key has lost its connection to your car’s immobiliser or you’ve lost your only key, we can quickly and efficiently reprogram a new one for you.

How Transponder Keys Work

Transponder keys contain a small microchip that communicates with your car’s immobiliser system. When you insert the key, the chip sends a unique signal to the car’s ECU (Engine Control Unit). If the signal is incorrect or missing, the engine won’t start. This security feature helps prevent theft but can cause issues if the key becomes damaged, lost, or needs reprogramming.
