Transponder Key Programming

Transponder Key Programming by JSP

If you own a modern vehicle, chances are it uses a transponder key for added security. Transponder keys are equipped with a small microchip that communicates with your vehicle’s engine control unit (ECU). When you insert the key into the ignition, the transponder sends a unique signal to the ECU, allowing the engine to start. If the signal doesn’t match, the car won’t start, which adds an extra layer of protection against theft.

What is Transponder Key Programming?

Transponder key programming is the process of synchronising a new or replacement transponder key with your vehicle’s ECU. This service is essential if you’ve lost your original keys, need a spare key, or if the transponder chip in your key is damaged. Without proper programming, the key will not be recognised by your vehicle, leaving you unable to start your car.

How Much Does Transponder Key Programming Cost?

The cost of transponder key programming can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle, as well as the locksmith or dealership you choose. On average, the cost starts from £75 and upwards.  Some high-end vehicles may require more sophisticated programming tools, which could push the price even higher. It’s always a good idea to get a quote before committing to the service.
