  • Remote and smart fobs
  • Programmed at the vehicle
  • Compatibility confirmed first
  • Old fobs deleted where required

01

The remote has stopped working

The vehicle may still start while the remote does nothing, or the range may have collapsed to a few centimetres. That can be a battery, the contacts, or a fob that has genuinely failed, and the three are easy to confuse without testing.

02

Damaged casing or faulty buttons

Cracked shells, missing buttons and buttons that need pressing three times are the everyday reality of a fob carried in a pocket for years. Where the shell is the whole problem it can often be addressed; where the internals are worn, a replacement fob is the reliable answer.

03

Replacement and programming go together

A new fob is not a plug-in part. It has to be introduced to the vehicle so the remote functions, and on keyless models the start system, recognise it. We supply and programme in the same visit rather than leaving you with an unpaired fob.

What you get

What Key Fob Replacement Includes

  • A compatible replacement remote or smart fob
  • Programming to your vehicle's remote and, where fitted, keyless system
  • Existing keys retained where the vehicle allows it
  • Old or lost fobs deleted where required
  • Locking, unlocking and start functions tested

Done at the vehicle, not at a dealership

The work is carried out where your vehicle is: your driveway, your workplace car park or the roadside. Nothing needs booking in, dropping off or transporting, and we cover Cheshire and the surrounding North West.

Vehicle compatibility

Fobs vary widely between manufacturers, models and even production years, and aftermarket fobs are not always what they claim to be. We confirm compatibility from your registration before attending.
