Lost Keys

All keys should be kept safe at all times and nobody should have more than one key at the same time (with the exception of keys damaged in locks). Lost/Stolen Key Reports must be filled out and submitted to University Safety. A police report is required if the loss was believed to be the result of criminal activity. The cost of replacement for a lost/stolen lock key is $30 per key. The fee must be paid to the responsible holder of the key.

Broken Keys

It's not unusual for keys to break after a few years. If your key has broken in the lock, you'll need to get a new one. If the remainder of the lock's key is in good condition it could be possible to repair it.

A paperclip is a great way to grasp the broken piece from both sides and push it out. If the broken piece isn't stuck too far within the lock, you can try using a pair pliers. If the key is damaged very close to lock, you might need an "key extraction" tool that has a bar on it with the same barb as the screw. The bar can be installed into the lock and by twisting it you can pierce the barb into the key to remove it.

It's easy to replace a key on a keyboard when you have the appropriate tools. You'll need an accessory cap for the key (the part made of plastic that goes over the switch) along with a keypad and a key-retention clip. The key cap is composed of metal or plastic posts that are placed into slots on the switch. To replace a cap carefully remove all internal components and mark their positions so that you can return them later. It is possible to clean the keyboard first using ruby alcohol.

Fobs not working

It may appear impossible that your key fob requires routine maintenance, however they can cease to function at any time. In some instances the issue is simple that is caused by dead batteries. If you've replaced your batteries but your fob is still not working, you need to explore a different solution.

Another reason that causes the fob to cease working is because the buttons are been worn out. When you press the button on your fob the contacts inside send codes to the receiver in your car to communicate the actions you want the key to execute. If these contacts are worn out and the button is not working, it may not work properly or it could send different messages than you intended.

It is possible to fix this issue quickly by using a physical car seat key key to unlock your doors or start your engine. You can reset your fob by following instructions in the owner's guidebook of your car (check online for specific instructions).

If replacing the batteries and reprogramming the key fob aren't helping it is possible to have it replaced or repaired. Modern keys have to be programmed using your car's Vehicle Identification Number. Incorrect programming or wear and tear can affect this programming.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chips in your car key are an important part of the car key. They transmit an electronic signal with a specific frequency when the key is put in the ignition. The vehicle's device recognizes the number and is sure it's you. The engine won't start when the device in the car does not recognize the signal. This is a security feature designed to stop thieves from hot wiring their cars and driving them away.

The chip doesn't contain any batteries and therefore does not need to be charged or replaced. It must be programmed by a person who has access to the ECU of your car. This is why you need to take your key to an expert locksmith.

Transponder chips come in a variety of forms that are widely used, but the most commonly used are Rolling Code and Crypto. The key blanks have a plastic head with an opening that can accommodate the glass ampoule/transponder, it is then put into a carrier (or sleeves) on the outside of the bow (plastic head). Here is a photo of a sleeve holder from an Ford Key. With the help of a PVC pipe cutter, or another method, you can remove the sleeve of a damaged Ford key.

A regular transponder can be more expensive because of the chip an electronic or smart key, but cheaper than fob. The cost of these key depends on your vehicle's make and model.
