Lost Keys

All keys must be secure at all times, and nobody should have more than one key at a time (with the exception of keys damaged in locks). Key reports for stolen or lost keys are required to be completed and filed with University Safety. A police report is required if the loss was determined to be the result of criminal activity. The cost of replacement for a stolen or lost lock key is $30 per key and must be paid to the responsible key holder.

Broken Keys

It's not unusual for keys to break after a couple of years. If your key is damaged in the lock, you'll have to get a new one. But if the remainder of the key is still in good shape it could be possible to fix it.

A paperclip can be used to grab the broken piece from both sides and pull it out. If it isn't stuck far within the lock, you could also try using a pair of pliers. If the key is broken close to the lock, you may need a "key extraction" tool with a bar on it with an elongated barb that is similar to screws. The bar can be put into the lock and by twisting it, you can dig the barb into the key to extract it.

If you have the right tools, it's difficult to replace the key on a keyboard. You'll require an accessory cap for the key (the plastic piece that sits over the switch) as well as a keypad and a key-retention clip. The cap for the key has small metal or plastic posts on its underside which fit into tiny slots on the switch. To replace a cap, carefully remove all the internal components and mark their positions to be able to return them later. You may have to clean the keyboard with rubbing alcohol before moving on.

Fobs not working

It may seem odd to think that your key device might require regular maintenance, however, it's not uncommon to see them stop working at some moment. Sometimes, the issue can be as simple as the battery being dead. If you have changed your batteries but your fob is still not working, you need to consider a different approach.

Another common reason for the fob to cease working is that the buttons are been worn out. When you press a button on your fob, the contacts inside send signals to the receiver in your vehicle that indicate the actions you would like the key to perform. If these contacts are worn out or damaged, pressing the button could not function properly or it will send different messages than you wanted to.

This issue can be fixed quickly by using a physical car key to unlock your doors or start your engine. You can reset your fob by following instructions in the owner's manual for your vehicle (check online for specific instructions).

If changing the batteries or reprogramming does not work, it could 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 can cause this programming to become corrupted.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chips on your car key are an vital component of your car key. They send out the signal using a unique frequency when the key is put in the ignition. The vehicle's device recognises the code and knows it's you. The engine won't start in the event that the device inside the car isn't able to recognize the signal. This is a security measure designed to prevent thieves from hot wiring their cars and driving them off.

The chip isn't powered by a battery, so it does not require replacement or charging. It must however be programmed into the car by someone who has access to the car's ECU and that's why it's crucial to bring your keys to locksmith.

There are various kinds of transponder chip available on the market, the most popular being Rolling Code and Crypto. The key blanks are made of plastic with an opening for the glass ampoule/transponder. It is then slid into a sleeve, or Deloras carrier on the side (or bow) of the key. Here is a picture of a sleeve carrying device from the Ford Key. With the help of a PVC pipe cutter, or another method, you can get rid of the sleeve from a broken Ford key.

A transponder-type key is more expensive than a steel key due to the chip, but less expensive than a fob or smart key. The cost of these key is dependent on the make and model.
