2004 Mitsubishi Montero Transponder Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Mitsubishi uses an ID46 transponder system on most models from the mid-2000s through the late 2010s. Your 2004 Mitsubishi Montero has a chip inside the key that talks to the car's immobilizer every time you turn the ignition or press start. The immobilizer sends a challenge, the chip responds with a calculated code, and the engine fires only if they match. That's why a blank key from a hardware store will turn the lock but will never start the engine.
A customer at Food 4 Less in Spring Valley thought only the dealer could program that chip. She'd been quoted $262 for a spare on her 2004 Mitsubishi Montero and assumed that was her only option. Her coworker had used me before and passed along my number.
I brought my Smart Pro to her car and connected through OBD. Her Montero uses a transponder key with a separate remote, FCC ID . The "chip programming" the dealer charges a premium for is a security sequence my tool runs identically.
Her spare was cut, programmed, and tested in about 25 minutes. Total was around $104. The chip technology is real, but the dealer markup on programming it isn't justified when a mobile locksmith carries the same tools.
