Compatibility
Remote programming depends on the vehicle
Whether a remote or key fob can be programmed, and how, depends on the make, model, year and the remote itself. Frequency, chip type and part number all have to match what the vehicle expects.
We check your vehicle first and tell you whether it can be programmed on site.

Questions
Remote / key fob programming: common questions
Can you programme a remote I already bought?
Sometimes. Many remotes sold online do not match the vehicle’s frequency, chip or part number, so we cannot guarantee a customer-supplied remote will be accepted. Mention that you already have a remote in the message; we will ask for the details before booking.
Do you need a working key?
A working key makes many programming jobs simpler, and some vehicles require one. If you have none, the job is usually handled as all keys lost instead.
Will you confirm compatibility before attendance?
Yes. We check the vehicle and remote first and only book attendance when programming is possible.
