Where can I get a remote key duplicated?
1 Answers
Remote keys can be duplicated at 4S dealerships or at specialized key duplication shops. When duplicating a remote key, the focus is on replicating the chip inside the key, as this chip is essential for remotely locking or unlocking the car. The chip in the remote key also controls the engine start function. Even for vehicles without push-button start (those requiring key turning to start), the chip in the remote key is still necessary. Without this chip, the engine won't start even if the mechanical key is present. The outer casing of the remote key is not waterproof, so it's advisable to avoid exposing the remote key to water during daily use, as this could damage the chip.
