There are several reasons when a car key replacement is needed. Of course, aside from the unpleasant event where a car key is lost or stolen, the key replacement also occurs when the key may be misplaced or broken beyond repair.

To have a second working car key or a spare car key, it may prove to be instrumental when the main car key is missing for various reasons. First of all, a spare car key may, for the time being, save the moment by being able to drive the vehicle. Furthermore, a spare car key will save you a ton of money when cutting and programming a new car key.

Ever wondered if the car keys can be repaired? The answer is yes. There are many components, within a fob key that can be repaired or replaced that not always involves programming. The repairs may include the shell case, the buttons or switches on the electronic circuit board, battery holder- this sometimes comes loose all together or loses connection with the electronic circuit board.

Cutting a car key is a relatively easy process when another working key is present and maybe a little more time is needed if no car key is present at all. The door lock needs to be decoded in order to obtain the exact match and then is proceeded to cutting the new car key.

The process of car key programming may be as simple as 1-2-3 or rather complicated. What can complicate the process of a car key? Well, when no working car key is present, then at the time of programming 1 or more security modules need to be read in order to delete any non-present car key and only program the car keys on hand.

This may be more common than anything else. To be in a rush at any given time, lock the car keys inside the vehicle. But wait, is it possible to lock your own keys inside the vehicle without pressing any buttons? Technically no. But freak accidents happen all the time and this would be no different. Remember Murphy’s Laws- If anything can go wrong, it will.
