Key Replacement - Save vs Dealer in San Diego

2014 Honda CR-V Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

The car was sitting in a trailhead lot in Otay Mesa West, engine off, and the owner was standing next to it with nothing.

He had been running a trail that loops back near the Mesa and somewhere out there his key had come out of his shorts pocket. He checked the trail twice. It was gone. No dealer close by, and his CR-V was not moving without a working key. He found me, texted a pin, and I was already loading up.

When I got there he was leaning against the passenger door in full trail gear, dried dirt on his shoes, looking at the car like it owed him something. I told him we would have him rolling before it got dark.

I decoded his lock cylinder and cut a replacement key blade to match. Then I pulled up the programming sequence on my equipment, enrolled the new key to the immobilizer, and paired the remote functions in the same pass. The whole process happened on the hood of my service van while he watched. No tow. No waiting room. No dealer appointment three days out.

He turned the key, the engine caught, and that was it. He asked if it was really that simple. I told him it always is when you have the right tools with you.

The dealer comparison came up on his own. He had already called one while he was waiting for me and been told to tow it in and come back the next morning. He saved a good chunk just by not doing that.
