What Is Car Key Programming?
Modern car keys contain a microchip (transponder) that must be electronically paired with your vehicle's immobiliser before the engine will start. Simply cutting a new key blade is not enough — the chip must be programmed to match your specific car. Without correct programming, the car will crank but not start.
Smart keys and proximity fobs also need to be paired to your car's body control module. Our technicians use professional diagnostic equipment to program keys correctly for all major makes and models sold in the UAE.
