It’s great if you have a pre-coded backup key chip that we can work with, but we understand that this isn’t a reality for nearly every customer. At this point, you’ll either need completely new keys or, if the chip can be saved, a locksmith will have to reflash your EEPROM keys. When this happens, you won’t be able to get into your car because its computer won’t pair with your keys anymore. Like any computer chip, your keys chip will become damaged and stop working if it gets wet, physically damaged, or the programming is corrupted. Making a duplicate key requires specialized equipment and unfortunately it isn’t something you can do at home. Locksmiths have to pair the codes with the car’s computer to make them unlock and start your vehicle. Modern keys/fobs/remotes aren’t easy to make because there are tiny chips inside of them that have codes unique to each vehicle.
