Lost Keys

All keys should be kept safe at all time. No one can keep more than one key at a given time (except for keys that have broken in locks). Key reports for stolen or lost keys must be filed with University Safety. A police report is required if the loss was determined to be the result of criminal crime. The replacement fee for a key that was stolen or lost is $30 per key and must be paid to the responsible owner of the key.

Broken Keys

It's not unusual for keys to break after a few years. If your key has broken in the lock, you'll have to replace it. If the remainder of the lock's key is in good shape you might be able to fix it.

A paperclip works well to hold the broken piece from both sides and push it out. If the broken piece isn't stuck too far inside the lock, you can use pliers. If the key is damaged very close to the lock, you may require an "key extraction" tool that has a bar that has a barb similar to a screw. The bar is installed into the locking mechanism and then twisted until it digs the barb into it. The bar will then pull out the key.

If you have the right tools, it's not difficult to replace the keyboard key. You'll need a key cap (the plastic piece that sits over the switch) along with a keypad, and a key retainer clip. The key cap has little metal or plastic posts on its underside which fit into tiny slots on the switch. To replace a key cap, carefully remove the internal components of the key and record their location so that you can put them back later. You may have to clean the keyboard first by ruby alcohol.

Fobs Not Working

It might seem unlikely that your key fob needs regular maintenance, but they can cease to function at any time. In some cases, the problem is an easy one, such as dead batteries. If you've changed the batteries, but the fob still not working, it's time to look for a different solution.

Another reason that can cause a fob to stop working is that the buttons have been worn out. When you press the button on your fob, the contacts inside transmit coded signals to the receiver inside your vehicle to indicate what actions you would like the key to do. If the contacts are worn out and the button is not working, it may not work at all or it could send different messages than what you were hoping for.

One solution to this issue is to utilize a physical key to unlock your car's doors or start the engine. You can reset the fob following the procedure found in your car's owner's manual (check online for instructions for your specific model).

If replacing the batteries or programming doesn't work, it may be necessary to replace or repair your key fob. Modern keys have to be programmed using your vehicle's Vehicle Identification Number. Wear and tear can affect the programming.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chip in your car keys is an important component of the key. The transponder chip in your car key are a very vital component of the car key. They transmit a signal that has a specific frequency, each time the key is placed into the ignition. The device in the vehicle then recognises the code and can tell it's you. The engine won't begin to run when the device in the car doesn’t recognise the signal. This is a security measure that was designed to prevent thieves from hot wiring their vehicles and driving them off.

The chip doesn't have an battery, therefore it does not need to be charged or replaced. It must be programmed by a person who has access to the ECU of your vehicle. This is why you need to bring your keys to a professional locksmith.

There are a variety of transponder chip available on the market, the most popular are Rolling Code and Crypto. Key blanks feature the head of a plastic with slots that hold the glass ampoule/transponder, it is then inserted into a carrier (or sleeve) on the back of the key bow (plastic head). Here is a picture of a sleeve carrying device from a Ford Key. You can get the transponder from a damaged key by using the PVC Ratcheting Pipe Cutter or a different method to remove the sleeves.

A regular transponder key is more expensive than a traditional metal key due to the chip, but is less expensive than a fob and smart key. The cost of these keys is dependent on the make and model.
