    Just got mine and worked perfectly. The "Theft Deterrent System" is time sensitive, and I figured you need to pay attention to the 5-second window to insert the key for it to pair.
    Looking forward to order another one, Tom's Key 🔑 👌 cheers!

    Isn't that a major security concern? Someone somewhere will forever have a photo of your car's key blade!

      Hi, images are stored in a secure location with restricted access. They are not directly associated with a name or address. So, it is not straightforward to associate a key image with anyone's name or location. I hope this addresses your concern, you may also send us an email at help@tomskey.com if you need further clarifications.

      Well i'm curious... So how could you get the correct key to the correct person if they're not associated with the owner?
      Also, have you heard about Equifax or 23andMe? They were safeguarding the most important and sensitive information people could have, and look at what happened.

    I have a 2016 Buick Lacrosse that is push-start. The fob does have a key embedded in the side of the fob but starting is by push button on the dash. I think the key is for valet use? So I need the replacement fob suitable for the push-start type Fob

      Press the button to flip the key out, put your finger where the key sleep and pull out the plastic part covers the back of the key fob. There you will find the battery.

    Just bought a 2015 Chevrolet Sonic. Neither key fob that was given to me works. Both of them are in bad shape, one doesn't work at all and one will start the car but no buttons work. The other will not start the car at all. So the blades are correct but what do I need to do to program new key fobs to the existing keys (blades.)
    Of course the dealer told me they were easy to program but failed to mention you have to have one working key fob to program them. So I need to find someone with a scanner tool would be my only option?

    Do they have a "microchip" that the car can't start without (to prevent theft)?

    • @TomsKeyCompany
      @TomsKeyCompany  5 місяців тому

      Hi, yes, this flip key contains a transponder chip. This chip is part of the vehicle's security system and is programmed to communicate with the car's immobilizer. Without the correct chip signal, the car's engine will not start, helping to prevent theft.

    Does it still work if my original key fob is faulty? The original key works okay just that the fob is messed up and the buttons dont do what they're supposed to do and im afraid the new key will get messed up in the programming process

    • @TomsKeyCompany
      @TomsKeyCompany  Рік тому +1

      The new key including buttons should work just like factory original settings after your program it. Sounds like your old key may have a circuit board that is wearing out.
