How to Make a Replacement Fiat Key

Fiat has brought back their classic cars and now is the best moment to buy one. But what happens if your key fob breaks?

Locksmiths can replace Fiat keys for you. Many people go to the dealer, but they are not necessary. We'll outline the details you'll need to provide to your locksmith on the phone.

Keys stolen or lost

Losing keys can be a big hassle and stressor. It is recommended to have a spare set made and store it in a secure place depending on the frequency you lose your keys. This way, in the event that you lose your keys, they can be replaced quickly and easily. Another option is to call the local police department and provide a description of your keys so they can be returned if found.

Many people believe that the only option for Fiat key replacement is to go to the dealership, but that is not the case. Locksmiths are able to assist with the process. They also can provide a cheaper solution. These locksmiths will use your VIN number along with the unique codes printed on the key fob in order to make keys for you.

It is essential to be aware of the information that you will need to provide to locksmiths in the event that you need to replace a Fiat vehicle key. They will ask you for the year and model of your Fiat. They will also ask if you require an ordinary or remote key. In most cases, you can ask a locksmith on the phone what kind of Fiat key is needed.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits embedded in your keys and communicate with the immobilizer. When the key is switched on, the chip sends an identification code to the Body Control Module (BCM) of the vehicle. If the ID code matches that stored in the BCM's memory the immobilizer is deactivated and your engine starts. If the ID code doesn't match, the security lamp will be lit and your car won't be able to start.

G28 Car Keys aren't perfect however, because car thieves have evolved over time to find ways of bypassing security systems to prevent theft. Having a spare key with functioning transponders can help keep this from happening.

We suggest calling us to get a quote if you need a new key with a transponder that works. To receive the best service, ensure you have all your information in order. We will require the year your Fiat was made and the name of the model. Do not be afraid to ask us any questions you have! Our friendly and knowledgeable staff is ready to assist you.

Smart Keys Keys

Smart keys aren't just cool convenience but they also make it more difficult for thieves to steal your vehicle. Smart keys don't transmit the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead they transmit different encrypted messages every time they open a door or remotely unlock the trunk. The computer in your car recognizes the different frequencies, and will only allow it to start when the correct key matches.





A BMW smart key, for instance is equipped with a tiny LCD touchscreen which performs the typical functions of a standard key fob (locking in, unlocking and keyless start), but also gives you the ability to save personal driver settings, turn off sunroofs and windows, and even instruct your car to self-park inside the key. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Despite this added layer of security, there are ways that smart keys could be compromised. If someone near you picks up the low-frequency transmissions between your smart keys and your car while you are away, for example in a restaurant or a gas station, they can gain access to your car (or at least attempt to).

The good news is that a majority of smart keys have batteries that can kick in should the main battery fail. Furthermore, a lot of smart key batteries are easy to replace and generally don't require any tools.
