2012 Kia RIO Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Lock decoding means I read your car's lock to create a key without drilling, without breaking anything, and without replacing the cylinder. The car looks exactly the same when I leave.
A road tripper at a scenic overlook near Bay Marina Nc had his key snap inside the door lock of his 2012 Kia RIO. The blade broke clean in half. Another locksmith told him the cylinder would need to be drilled out. New cylinder, new key, pushing $500.
I used my HY22 Lishi to extract the broken fragment without scratching the wafer surfaces. Once extracted, I decoded the lock by reading each wafer position for exact cut depths. His car uses FCC ID SY5HMFNA04 on the remote side. I cut the new blade from the decode and programmed the transponder chip through OBD.
No drilling, no cylinder replacement. His total was $229. The other locksmith's plan would have run $412 or more. Destructive entry should be a last resort.
