How does a car key fob actually work?

Car key fobs typically use radio frequency (RF) technology to communicate with the vehicle. When a button is pressed on the fob, it sends out an encrypted signal that is unique to that particular remote. This signal is picked up by a receiver inside the car and triggers certain functions such as unlocking/locking doors or activating an alarm system.

How does an auto locksmith reprogramme a key fob?

There are 2 ways in which we as auto locksmiths can reprogramme your key fob should you lose it or it gets damaged (and therefore need a replacement key fob).

1) Reprogramming electronically
2) Reprogramming mechanically

Reprogramming your car key fob electronically:

In order to programme the new key, we access your vehicle’s onboard diagnostic port
(OBD). We then connect our equipment to this port and use a series of commands to programme the new key into the car’s system. Once programmed, your new key fob will enable you to start and operate  your vehicle as normal.

If it is the key itself that’s the problem (and not the electronics) we will mechanically cut a new key for you on site.
