Ignition keys are simply keys that operate a car’s ignition switch. Without a properly functioning ignition key, your car simply will not start. There are numerous reasons why one might require an ignition key replacement; malfunctioning lock cylinder, wear on the ignition switch due to overuse, attempted theft or simply loss. If you find yourself in need of an ignition key replacement in or around London, then you have come to the right place. Always Locksmith is London’s first choice in automotive locksmith service providers.
Replacing an ignition key these days is simply not what it used to be. Newer models of cars all utilize electronic transponder chip technologies. When using a transponder key, the car’s computer will emit a radio signal.
The transponder key must then respond with a valid code in order for the engine to start. Transponder keys are not simply cut; rather, they are programmed and this requires advanced equipment, software and the knowledge to use them. Always Locksmith technicians arrive in fully stocked trucks with all of the necessary key blanks and equipment as well as the know-how to replace ignition keys for virtually every model and make of car on the road today; including, BMW, Peugeot, Toyota, Vauxhall, Mercedes, Fiat, Porsche, Mazda, Ford, Jeep, Land Rover, Honda, Jaguar, Kia, Rover, Seat and more.
People requiring ignition key replacements can always contact the dealership at which the car was purchased as the dealership will have all of the necessary codes for the transponder key on file. However, this can be a very expensive and timely option considering that many dealerships will not have the necessary equipment on the premises of their dealership and will be required to outsource the work. Moreover, they will not deliver the key to your location and you will have to go and pick them up.
