Lost Keys
All keys must be secured at all time. There is no way to have more than one at any given time (except for keys that have been damaged in locks). Key reports that are lost or stolen must be filled out and submitted to University Safety. A police report is required if the theft was determined to be the result of criminal crime. The replacement fee for a key that was stolen or lost is $30 per key. The fee 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 your key is damaged inside the lock, you will have to replace it. But if the rest of the key is in good shape you might be able to repair it.
A paperclip works well to hold the broken piece from both sides and pull it out. If it’s not encased within the lock, you can also try a pair of pliers. If it’s damaged close to the lock, you might need a tool called a “key extractor” that has an iron bar with an elongated barb that is similar to a 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.
If you have the right tools, it’s difficult to replace the keyboard key. You’ll require an accessory cap for the key (the plastic piece that sits over the switch) as well as a keypad and a key retention clip. The cap for the key has small metal or plastic posts on the underside that fit into small slots on the switch. To replace a key cap, carefully remove the internal components of the key. Note their location so that you can replace them later. You may need to clean the keyboard with rubbing alcohol before moving on.
Fobs Not Working
It might seem unlikely that your key fob requires routine maintenance, however they can be out of commission at any time. Sometimes, the issue can be as simple as a dead battery. If you’ve changed your batteries but your fob isn’t working, it might be the right time to try a different option.
The buttons can also wear out, which is a common reason why a fob stops working. When you press the button on your fob, the contacts send a coded message to the receiver inside your car that communicates the action you want the key perform. If the contacts on the fob’s key are worn out they may not be in a position to press the button or it might send a different message from the one you wanted.
You can fix this problem quickly by using a physical car key to unlock your doors or start your engine. You can reset the fob by following instructions in the owner’s manual of your vehicle (check online for specific instructions).
If replacing the batteries and reprogramming the key fob isn’t working, you might need to have it replaced or repaired. Modern keys have to be programmed with your vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number. Incorrect programming or wear and tear can corrupt the program.
Transponder Chips
The transponder chip that is in your car keys is an important part of the key. They send out a signal with a unique frequency when the key is inserted into the ignition. The device in the seat car keys then recognizes the code and can tell it’s you. The engine won’t start when the device in the car does not recognize the signal. This is intended as a security measure to stop thieves from wiring cars and driving them away.
The chip does not contain a battery so does not require charging or replaced. It must be programmed by a person who has access to the ECU of your vehicle. This is why you should bring your keys to a professional locksmith.
Transponder chips come in several varieties however the most well-known are Rolling Code and Crypto. The key blanks have heads made of plastic that have an opening to accommodate the glass ampoule/transponder. It is then slid into a carrier (or sleeves) on the side of the bow (plastic head). Here is a photograph of a sleeve holder from an Ford Key. You can take the transponder from a broken key by using the PVC pipe cutter that ratchets or a different method to remove the sleeves.
A regular transponder can be more expensive due to the chip a smart or metal key, but is less expensive than a fob. The cost of these keys is contingent on the model and make of your vehicle.
