Call (317) 800-7555Fobs die in predictable ways: a cracked case from a drop, a soaked board from a washing machine, buttons worn flat after years in a pocket, or simply gone. Sometimes the fix is a five dollar battery and sometimes it is a new remote. We diagnose before we sell, and if a shell swap saves the electronics we will do that instead.
Why Indianapolis calls us for key fob replacement
We test before we replace
Battery, contacts and board are checked first. Plenty of 'dead' fobs need a cell or a solder joint, not a new unit.
Right part for your VIN
Frequency, button count and chip type are matched to your specific vehicle so the remote behaves exactly like the original.
Emergency blade cut on site
The hidden mechanical key inside the fob is cut to your door lock, not left as a blank stub.
Shell swaps where they make sense
If the electronics are healthy but the case is destroyed, a shell transfer is far cheaper than a full replacement.
How it works
- 1Describe the fob and the vehicle — year, make, model, button layout.
- 2We confirm the exact remote, the blade cut and the programming needed.
- 3The technician arrives, cuts the blade and codes the fob to your car.
- 4Lock, unlock, trunk, panic and remote start are tested in front of you.
Fob problems we solve
Most remote faults fall into a handful of buckets.
- Lost or stolen remote
- Cracked shell with working electronics
- Water or laundry damage
- Buttons that need to be pressed hard or repeatedly
- Fob that unlocks but no longer starts the car
- Second remote for a partner, teen driver or valet use
Push-to-start versus traditional remotes
A proximity fob for a push-to-start vehicle carries a rolling code and a low-frequency antenna, and is a different part from a basic keyless entry remote. Both are programmed the same way in our van, but the parts are not interchangeable — which is why we confirm your exact configuration on the phone rather than guessing on arrival.
What customers say
5.0 average from 250+ reviews across the Indianapolis metro.
“Locked my keys in the car outside work downtown. Got a straight answer on the phone and the tech had the door open without a scratch.”
“Lost the only key to our Camry. They cut and programmed two new keys right in the driveway for a lot less than the dealer quoted, and explained exactly what they were doing.”
“Bought a house and wanted everything keyed alike before we moved in. Six locks done in one visit, one key, clean work.”

Key Fob Replacement FAQ
Can you fix my fob instead of replacing it?
Often. Batteries, contact pads and shells are all repairable. We only recommend replacement when the board itself is gone.
Is your fob the same as the dealer's?
We use OEM or OEM-equivalent remotes with matching frequency and chip. Function is identical once programmed.
My fob unlocks the doors but the car will not start. Why?
The remote radio and the immobilizer chip are separate systems. The radio side can survive while the chip fails, or the vehicle has lost the key's code. Both are fixable on site.
How many fobs can my car hold?
Most vehicles accept between four and eight programmed keys. We will tell you your make's limit and can clear old ones if you are at it.
Do you carry fobs for my car in the van?
We stock the common Indianapolis fleet. For rarer models we source the part quickly and schedule the visit once it is in hand.
