What Car Key Faults Do We Repair?

If your key has stopped working, responds intermittently, or has physical damage, bring it to any of our workshops or send it via our Royal Mail postal service. Most car key repairs are completed the same day.

We diagnose and fix the following faults:

  • Unresponsive or sticky buttons: buttons that no longer register, or require multiple presses to activate
  • Broken or cracked key casing: damaged shells that expose the internal electronics
  • Failed battery contacts: loose or corroded contacts preventing power from reaching the circuit board
  • Internal circuit board faults: damaged microswitches or failed electronic components
  • Worn key blade: a blade that no longer operates correctly due to wear
  • Broken flip blade mechanism: the folding blade no longer clicks securely into position
  • Water or moisture damage: electronic faults caused by liquid exposure
  • Fob dropped or crushed: physical damage from impact or compression

If the fault cannot be resolved by repair, we will tell you clearly before any further cost is incurred. You are never charged for a repair we cannot complete.
