Need A New Transponder Chip Key? Need a New Battery?
Many vehicles use transponder chip keys and it’s likely that your vehicle uses a chip key. Transponder chip keys help make your vehicle virtually theft-proof, which is great. But like all technology, your chip key has a shelf-life and will require replacement. The most common issue with malfunctioning chip keys is that the key has run out of electricity. A simple replacement of the battery will ensure that your chip key is working again. However, if you replaced the battery and the key still does not work, then you may have to replace the chip key itself.
Since 1995, many vehicles use transponder keys because manufacturers and insurance companies consider vehicles with transponder keys to be virtually theft-proof. That’s good news!
