We are able to program your vehicle
keys even if they are lost, stolen or even you just want to add a
key.
Since
approximately 1995 vehicle manufacturers have increased the security
of their vehicles by the introduction of transponder vehicle keys.
This involves the inclusion of a small transponder chip placed in the
ignition keys. When the keys are presented to the ignition switch the
transponder communicates with an aerial around the ignition switch
and identifies it as the correct key for the vehicle. If the correct
key is presented the vehicle immobiliser system communicates with the
vehicle ECU (electronic control unit) and allows the vehicle engine
to be started.
The
inclusion of transponders into vehicle keys means that whenever a new
key is required the new keys require programming into the vehicle ECU
memory. Most vehicles require any additional key to be programmed
using a diagnostic tester, Some vehicles have a master key or keys
that are required to enable programming to take place, when these
master keys are lost or not passed on to the new owner the vehicle
requires connecting to a diagnostic device held only by the vehicle
manufacturers dealer.
Until
now, as we here at Elite Services Centre have invested heavily into this market and have extended our
computerised equipment allowing us to program vehicle keys to the
vehicles ECU (electronic control unit).
Most
vehicles now require a pin code or a pass code to be able to do this;
we also can retrieve the pin or pass code on most vehicles including
Vauxhall and Volkswagen and Audi vehicles
