Lost Keys

The first thing you need to do when you lose your car keys is to check the area where you typically keep keys. Some keys "drift" from their usual place and end up on the surface or under something. It is important to not give up too soon especially if the area has been searched several times. If you've done all this but are still unable to locate your keys, call a locksmith in your area for assistance. Locksmiths are often cheaper than dealerships for replacement keys for cars. The locksmith will need some information about your vehicle such as the VIN or the key code number. This will help them identify your vehicle and give the correct key to open.

Broken Keys

If a key is broken inside your lock, with the stomach-shivering snap, feelings of fear and despair descend upon you. But before you give up take a deep breath and keep in mind that it's still possible to salvage your broken key. If you're lucky, there may still be enough of the damaged piece left that you can grab it with a pair of needle nose pliers. If not, tweezers be just as effective (just be careful not to accidentally push the damaged edge further into the lock).

A great trick is using the can WD-40(r), Smart Straw which has a smart nozzle that sprays directly into the keyhole. This will help the damaged piece move out, and can also loosen any binds that are holding it in place. You can try to wiggle it up and down or in and out to release it from the thing that is holding it.

Other methods have been attempted by people, like using the paperclip on both sides to grasp the broken piece and push it out. You could also try a drill bit but be sure to drill the hole into the exposed side of the broken portion of the key, not the lock it self.

Sometimes, what appears to be a serious hardware problem may be nothing more than a bit of grit or dust under the key, which is stopping it from working properly. You can often resolve this yourself, without the necessity of replacing parts. You'll require a plastic prying tool (a credit card is the best however a flathead screwdriver is also a viable option in the event of a need) and a container can be used to store the essential pieces while you take them off.

Additionally, you will require a spudger for removing the stubborn dirt and grime from the key's grooves and a Q tip to clean the key pad. If you can remove the key and other internal parts be sure to record their places so that you can restore them in the correct order later.

We can retrieve this code with a specialist tool and software, and provide you with a brand new replacement key at a lower cost than a dealership.
