Transponder and Chip Key Programming in Ottawa
Nearly every vehicle built since the late nineteen nineties has an immobiliser. A chip in the key answers a challenge from the car, and if the answer is wrong the engine will not start even when the key turns perfectly. Cutting the metal is the easy half.
- Transponder and chip keys cut and paired to your immobiliser
- Push to start proximity keys, including all keys lost situations
- Keys that turn but will not start, which is usually an immobiliser fault rather than a mechanical one
- Immobiliser diagnosis before we replace anything
