Lost Keys

All keys must be secured at all the time. No one can keep more than one key at a time (except for keys that have been damaged in locks). Completed Lost/Stolen key reports must be submitted to University Safety. If the loss is believed as a result of criminal activity, a police report must also be filed. The replacement fee for a key that was stolen or lost is $30 per key, and must be paid to the key holder responsible for the loss.

Broken Keys

It's not unusual for keys to break after a couple of years. If the key breaks inside the lock, you will have to replace it. But if the remainder of the key is still in good condition you may be able to fix it.

A paperclip works well to grip the broken piece from both sides and force it out. If it's not stuck inside the lock, you can also try a pair of pliers. If the key is broken very close to lock, you may need a "key extraction" tool with an iron bar that has the same barb as the screw. The bar can be put into the lock and then by twisting it, you can dig the barb into the key to release it.

It's simple to replace a key on a keyboard when you have the appropriate tools. You'll require the key cap (the part of the plastic that covers the switch) Keypad, seat key cover cap and key retainer clip. The key cap is made of plastic or metal posts that are inserted into the slots of the switch. To replace a cap carefully remove all internal components and mark their locations to be able to return them later. You may need to clean the keyboard first using the help of rubbing alcohol.

Fobs not working

It may seem far-fetched to think that your key device may require regular maintenance but it's not unusual for them to stop working at some time. Sometimes, the issue could be as simple as the battery being dead. If you've replaced your batteries but your fob isn't working, it could be time to try something else.

The buttons may also wear out, which is another common reason why a keypad stops working. When you press the button on your fob, the contacts send coded signals to the receiver in your car that communicates the action you want the key perform. If the contacts are damaged or damaged, pressing the button could not function properly or it may send different messages than what you intended.

You can solve this issue quickly by using a car key to unlock your doors or start your engine. You can reset the fob by following the process in your car's owner's manual (check online for instructions for your specific model).

If changing the batteries or programming doesn't work, it could be necessary to replace or repair your key fob. Modern keys have to be programmed with your vehicle's Vehicle Identification Number. The wear and tear can corrupt this program.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chip that is in your car keys is a very crucial component of the keys. They send out an electronic signal with a specific frequency when the key is put in the ignition, the device in the car then recognizes the code and is aware that it's you. The engine won't begin to run when the device inside the car does not recognize the signal. This is a security measure designed to stop thieves from hot wiring their vehicles and stealing them.

The chip doesn't have an battery, therefore it does not require charging or replaced. However, it must be programmed to the car by someone with access to the car's ECU, which is why it is important to bring your keys to a locksmith.

There are a variety of transponder chips on the market, with the most popular are Rolling Code and Crypto. Key blanks feature a plastic head with slots that hold the glass transponder or ampoule, it is then put into the carrier (or sleeves) on the side of the key bow (plastic head). You can see a photo of one of these sleeve-carriers from a Ford key here. You can take the transponder from a damaged key using an PVC Ratcheting Pipe Cutter or a different method to remove the sleeves.

A standard transponder key is more expensive than a steel key due to the chip, but is less expensive than a fob and smart key. The price of these keys will depend on the model and make of your vehicle.
