This quote is agreed upon by you before any work begins or a service van is dispatched.The initial $89 starting price covers standard key fob programming.

This pre-dispatch quote ensures you understand the exact investment for your specific key fob programming needs.
Diagnosing Key Fob Issues: Battery, Pairing, or Replacement?
Many people assume a malfunctioning key fob is dead and needs replacing, but often the problem is simpler. A common culprit is a dead coin cell battery within the fob itself. Our technicians always test the fob's output first to confirm if it is transmitting a signal. If a new battery does not resolve the issue, a lost pairing with the vehicle's immobilizer is the next most frequent cause.If the fob is genuinely defective, or if you have purchased an aftermarket fob, we proceed with programming it to your vehicle. This involves a secure pairing process that integrates the fob with your car's security system. We can also delete lost fobs from your vehicle's memory, ensuring they can no longer be used to access your car, adding a layer of security.

This specialized service means you avoid the inconvenience and expense of towing your vehicle to a dealership for a seemingly minor issue.We can pair new fobs, reprogram existing ones that have lost their connection, and ensure all remote functions—locking, unlocking, trunk release, and remote start—operate correctly.
