2017 MINI Hardtop 2 Door Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
I got a call out to Rancho Del Oro on a Tuesday afternoon. The owner had a 2017 MINI Hardtop sitting in the driveway, going nowhere. She had one fob, it had gotten wet, and now the car just showed a key-not-detected warning every time she walked up to the door handle.
She had already done the right thing: pulled the battery out, let it dry, fresh CR2032 in. Still nothing. The fob was done.
I pulled up in the mobile unit and we started at the beginning anyway. Tested the dead fob by holding it flat against the start button, the way MINI builds in as a backup when Comfort Access fails. The car recognized it that way, which told me the transponder side of the old fob was still partially alive but the wireless side was gone. That is actually useful information because it means the immobilizer registration was intact. We were not dealing with all-keys-lost, just a fob replacement.
Cut the new blade to her vehicle on site, connected to the OBD port, enrolled the new fob into the system. Tested Comfort Access on both doors, tested the start, walked every button. The whole thing took about 40 minutes including the diagnostics.
She asked about the dealer almost as an aside, like she already knew the answer. I told her they would have needed an appointment, probably a parts order, and at least a few days. She nodded and went back inside. Job done.

“We had one broken key for our Honda Civic and one working key for our Lexus. Tim came out and cut three remote car keys at a great price. All keys worked perfectly. Professional, courteous, and highly recommended.”
“Tim was GREAT. I honestly swear he must have had my keys made before he even showed up. The entire process was insanely fast, from the initial phone call to having the keys in my hand. No one will beat the pricing, efficiency, or outstanding service.”
“This is the only locksmith anyone should ever call. I am still shocked at how fast he arrived and the price was hundreds less than other quotes I received. Honest, professional, and extremely efficient.”
