FAQs

Do I need programming after ignition replacement?

Most modern vehicles require programming so the immobilizer accepts the new or re-paired key/fob. We handle that on-site.

Can you rekey the new ignition to my existing door key?

Often yes, depending on the platform. We can pin the new cylinder so one key works your doors and ignition.

How long does it take?

Typically 60–120 minutes. Theft damage or complex modules can take longer; we’ll confirm on arrival.

Is this cheaper than a dealership?

Usually. You avoid towing and dealer wait times, and we complete the cut/program on-site with upfront pricing.
