2008 Kia RIO Remote Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
If you're reading this because you have zero keys for your 2008 Kia RIO and need help right now, here's what to do. First, find your VIN. It's a 17-character code on the bottom left of your windshield on the driver's side, also on your registration and insurance card. Second, have your ID ready. Third, know where the car is. Then call me.
A night janitor called from a laundromat lot in Otay Mesa at 10:30pm. He was panicking. His only key to his RIO was gone. He didn't have his registration, couldn't remember what a VIN was, and was about to call a tow just to get the car somewhere safe.
I talked him through it on the phone. I told him to look through the windshield at the base of the glass on the driver's side. He found the VIN. I told him his insurance app probably had his registration. It did. With the VIN I already knew his key type and prepped the right blank and chips before leaving. I used my IM608 to run the all-keys-lost procedure through OBD, erasing all old key data and programming fresh keys matched to his immobilizer. His fob, FCC ID PLNHM-T002, was a 3-button remote that I built and programmed under the parking lot lights. He calmed down a lot once I told him I was on my way.
He drove home that night. Total was $95. Dealer would have charged $208 plus a tow, and they were closed. The VIN is the single most useful piece of information you can give me.
