Lost Keys

All keys must be kept secure at all at all times. Nobody should keep more than one key at a time (except for keys that are broken in locks). Key Reports of stolen or lost keys must be submitted to University Safety. If the loss is determined to be due to a criminal activities, a police report must be filed. The cost for replacing keys that have been stolen or lost is $30 and must be paid by the responsible holder of the key.

Broken Keys

It's not unusual for keys to break after a few years. If seat key cover is damaged in the lock, you'll need to replace it. However, if the rest the key is in good shape, you might be able to repair it.

A paperclip can be used to grasp the broken piece on both sides, and then push it out. If the broken piece isn't stuck too far inside the lock, try using pliers. If the key is broken close to the lock, you may need an "key extraction" tool that has an iron bar that has an elongated barb that is similar to a screw. The bar is installed into the locking mechanism, and then twisted until it digs the barb into it. The bar will then pull out the key.

It's easy to replace the keys on a keyboard provided you have the right tools. You'll require keys, a cap (the part made of plastic that goes over the switch) and a key pad and a key-retention clip. The cap of the key is made of plastic or metal posts on the underside that fit into tiny slots on the switch. To replace a key cap, carefully remove the internal components of the key and record their locations so that you can replace them later. You may need to clean the keyboard first with rubbing alcohol.

Fobs not working

It may seem absurd that your key fob needs routine maintenance, but it's true that they can stop working at any moment. In some instances, the problem is an easy one such as dead batteries. If you've replaced your batteries, but your device is still not working, you should consider a different approach.

The buttons may also wear out, which is another common reason why a fob stops working. When you press the button on your fob the contacts inside send signals to the receiver inside your vehicle that indicate the actions you would like the key to perform. If the contacts on the fob's key are worn out they may not be in a position to press the button or send a different message than what you expected.

You can solve this issue quickly by using a physical car key to unlock your doors or start your engine. You can reset the fob following the instructions in the owner's guidebook of your car (check online for specific instructions).


If replacing the batteries or programming doesn't work, it may be necessary to replace or repair your key fob. Modern keys must be programmed to match your car's specific Vehicle Identification Number, and certain errors or wear and tear could cause the programming to become corrupted.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chips on your car key are a very important component of the car key. They transmit an indication with a distinct frequency when the key is inserted into the ignition, the car's device recognizes the number and is sure it's you. The engine won't start when the device inside the car isn't able to recognize the signal. This is a measure of security designed to stop thieves from hot wiring their cars and driving them away.

The chip is not powered by a battery, which means it does not require replacement or charging. It must be programmed by someone who has access to the ECU of your car. This is why you should bring your keys to an expert locksmith.

There are several types of transponder chips on the market, with the most well-known ones are Rolling Code and Crypto. Key blanks are made of the head of a plastic with an opening to accommodate the glass ampoule/transponder, it is then put into the carrier (or sleeve) on the side of the key bow (plastic head). Here is a photo of a sleeve-carrier from a Ford Key. You can extract the transponder from a broken key by using the PVC pipe cutter with ratcheting or other method to remove the sleeve.

A standard transponder key is more expensive than a steel key because of the chip however, it is less expensive than a fob and smart key. The cost of these keys is contingent on the model and make of your vehicle.
