Had three calls yesterday afternoon. The first call was for a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a Prox smart key. The dog chewed up the remote and must have cracked the board.
I wasn't sure if I would be able to do this one with all the changes with Autel and NASTF, but the programming went perfect and used his original emergency key to cut the ones in each fob.
The second call was for a 2015 Chevy Impala flip key fob. The original fob was missing the lock and unlock buttons, and he had to remove the door cylinder cover just to lock and unlock the car door.
I use an xHorse key imaging tool to get a good code reading of the high security key and then send the image to the CNC cutter that's will cut each side of the key. I check the key in the door lock and ignition and then program the chip to the car. The whole process takes about 30 to 45 mins. The customer was very happy and learned that the open circle would start the car; a feature he didn't know he had.
The final call came in at 8:30 pm. with the customers' keys locked in her vehicle. Luckily, she was only a few minutes away and was a simple job and I was back home by 9pm.
It's a pleasure and joy to see my customers smile and grateful that I was able to provide a solution to their problem.
