How key fob replacement works in Colorado Springs
A fob is a small radio that the car has to be told to trust. A new one is matched to your exact year and model, the emergency blade inside is cut, and the fob is programmed through the car’s diagnostic port.
Before replacing a fob, change its battery and try your spare. A dead coin battery is the most common reason a fob stops working.
