2017 Ford Explorer Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
A homeowner in Santaluz called me from the second level of an underground parking structure. Low ceiling, tight spiral ramps. No flatbed was getting anywhere near his 2017 Explorer. The dealer told him to get the car to them first. He had no working key. The car wasn't going anywhere. He was just stuck with those two facts staring at each other.
I parked on the street and walked in with my bag.
The fob that brought me out there was a 5-button smart key, the factory unit with the factory FCC ID printed right on the back. It wasn't reading the car anymore. No key-detected warning on the dash, doors responding like the fob didn't exist. He'd already swapped both CR2025 cells thinking that would fix it. It didn't, because this was a pairing issue, not a battery issue.
I pulled out my programmer, connected through the OBD port right there in the garage, and walked through the immobilizer enrollment sequence. New fob, registered to his vehicle, blade cut to match. Tested every button. Tested the push-to-start. Walked the door handles. Everything came back up.
He drove out under his own power about 40 minutes after I walked in. The dealer comparison was almost an afterthought. They needed the car at their shop, which was the one thing he couldn't do. I didn't need anything except a parking spot on the street above.

“The dealership quoted me $600 for a new Honda key. EZ Car Keyz did it for $225, same day, cut and programmed at my house. Works perfectly. Everyone should know this is an option.”
“A+ service at an even better price. Tim was a lifesaver. I lost my original and only key for my Audi and he was willing to come to my location at 8pm the same day. He worked fast, communicated clearly, and made sure everything worked before leaving.”
“I called over 40 locksmiths trying to get a key made for my Audi A6 and nobody could do it. Tim made it easy, fast, and affordable. He showed up with a smile and got the job done without any stress. Absolute wizard with keys.”
