1999 Acura TL Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
I got a call on a Tuesday morning from a woman over near Camino Real Marketplace in Goleta. She had a 1999 Acura TL that would crank but not start. She'd had a spare key made at a hardware store sometime in the past year and had been using it as her daily driver key. The original was long gone.
The hardware store key fit the lock, fit the ignition, turned fine. Car would crank strong, then shut right back off. She'd been through two mechanics who told her it was probably a fuel pump or an electrical gremlin. Nobody asked about the key.
I asked about the key.
When I looked at what she had, the blade was cut correctly. The problem was the chip inside the key head. A hardware store can cut the blade, but they cannot program the transponder. She had a working mechanical key and a dead transponder, which means the immobilizer did exactly what it was supposed to do. It saw an unrecognized key and shut the engine down.
I programmed a correct replacement key to her vehicle on the spot, in the parking lot. One key, done that afternoon. She told me she'd spent weeks thinking something was seriously wrong with the car. It was just the key the whole time.
The dealer, by the way, had a four-day wait and would have needed her to tow it in. She didn't need a tow. She needed the right person to ask the right question first.

From lost keys to happy customers
“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.”
“Tim is a hero. He programmed a master proximity key for a newer Volkswagen that multiple locksmiths refused to touch. He spent hours until late at night making sure every function worked perfectly. The skill level here is incredible.”
