How Keyless Ignitions & Remote Start Work

Our car locksmith is an expert at programming car key fobs.

Keyless ignitions (remote start) let you start your engine from across the parking lot. The chips in proximity fobs transmit an ID number to the antenna coil. In turn, the antenna sends the signal to your car’s reader using radio frequencies. This reader powers the card that starts your engine. Prox fobs must be close to your vehicle to work, which works out perfectly from a security standpoint. While we don’t install remote start for cars, we can program your car remote and key fob.

Key Fob Programming History

The word fob originated around 1890 when it referred to a decoration attached to a pocket-watch chain. Today, a number of businesses have adopted keyless entry devices, including automotive manufacturers. A car remote fob makes opening and starting your car hassle-free.

Steps To Program Your Key Fob & Remote

Whether you have a keyed ignition or push to start, we can make you new car keys.

For new key fobs, you may think you are better off starting with the car dealership near you. However, we can supply you a new key fob and help you reprogram your key fob at a much better price. If you need help with key fob programming, provide the make and model of your car when you call for a Desert Locksmith technician. Sometimes, the owner’s manual has the instructions for your car, but it’s different for every manufacturer. Here are the basic steps we follow to program your key fob:

• Get into the car and turn on the ignition.
• Turn on the ignition without starting the engine.
• On the car’s electronic system, select the key program mode.
• Press the appropriate button on the key fob that allows the programming that syncs up the fob to the car.
• Test the key and try again if needed.

The process is complicated for some makes and models. That’s why it’s better to let a professional handle the job. Honestly, you don’t want to get into a situation wherein the car’s computer locks up while you’re in programming mode.

Phoenix Car Key Fob Replacement Procedure

In certain cases, we can program your car key fob replacement. Each make and model has a different programming protocol to follow. First, you need to buy a blank car remote fob. Some prox fobs cannot be reused, they must be re-flashed and set back to factory settings, so be wary of buying remotes online. Contact us for further information or advice on replacing your car remotes.
