2017 Jeep Wrangler Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

I got a call from a woman who worked at a daycare in East Valley, Escondido. It was early morning, she was already running tight on time, and her Wrangler was sitting in the lot completely unresponsive to the fob.

She had tried a new CR2032 the night before. Still nothing. The key would turn and the engine would crank, but it would immediately stall back out. She had a room full of kids counting on her being there, and she was burning minutes standing in a parking lot.

I got out there while she was still on the phone with her co-teacher trying to work out coverage. Plugged in at the OBD port, ran the security sequence on the Wrangler, and while the system was processing I prepped the replacement remote head key and got the blade cut to her vehicle. The whole enrollment took about 20 minutes, which included testing start, lock, unlock, and the panic function to make sure all four buttons were live.

She made it in late, but not absent. That was the win.

The dealer angle came up on its own when she texted later saying her husband had already called the dealership before she found me. They told him to bring it in, quoted him a wait of a couple of days for parts, and gave a number that made him wince. She paid a fraction of that and did it in a parking lot before noon.
