2016 Acura ILX Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Over in Pierpont, a guy called me about his 2016 ILX on a Tuesday morning. Key-not-detected warning on the dash, push button doing nothing, door handle touch unlock completely dead. He had already tried swapping the battery in one fob. Still nothing.
When I pulled up, I checked both fobs first. Fresh cells in both, seated correctly, no bent contacts. So it wasn't a battery problem. I connected my scan tool to the OBD port and pulled into the keyless access system. No wiring fault codes, no antenna ring fault. What I found was that the system had dropped its registration with both fobs entirely. It happened after a battery disconnect he had done a few weeks back while chasing a different electrical issue. He hadn't mentioned that part at first.
Re-registration on these has a timed security sequence built in. You can't rush it. I ran through it, registered both fobs, and made sure each one was seated in its correct memory slot so his seat and mirror positions would still track the way he had them set.
Then the full check. Every button on each fob. Range from across the driveway. Handle touch unlock on both doors. Push button start, three times through. He watched the whole thing without saying much.
When I packed up, he mentioned the dealer had quoted him a full day in the shop and a bill that made him pause before he even agreed to drop it off. We did it at the curb in about 40 minutes.

Five Stars From Rescued Acura Drivers
Reviews from customers we rescued
“I called over 40 locksmiths trying to get a key made for my Audi A6 and nobody could do it. Tim made it easy, fast, and affordable. He showed up with a smile and got the job done without any stress. Absolute wizard with keys.”
“My Chevy key snapped while I was running errands in North Oxnard. He removed the broken piece from the ignition, cut a new blade, programmed the transponder, and tested everything thoroughly. The whole job was smooth and professional. Best automotive locksmith I have used.”
“My car keys were stolen on a cold evening and Nick drove all the way out to Santa Barbara. He got into my car, made a new key, and charged $100 less than another company. Friendly, skilled, trustworthy, and genuinely caring. Nick is a hero.”
