2013 Chevrolet Cruze Remote Flip Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Guy near the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley had his backpack swiped from a booth at a taco spot while he was at the counter. Keys, wallet, phone, all of it. He borrowed the cashier's phone and called the police first, then his girlfriend, then me.

His 2013 Chevrolet Cruze was sitting in the lot with zero keys. His girlfriend called the dealer, and they quoted 3 to 5 business days, a tow-in, plus rekeying since the stolen key could still open the doors physically.

All-keys-lost on this car is a different animal from adding a spare. Adding a key means the car already trusts an existing fob and piggybacks the new one in. AKL means I wipe the entire key memory in the BCM and start fresh so the stolen fob is dead to the immobilizer. I used my IM608 to get into the Passkey 3+ system on the BCM, cleared the old key data, and programmed two new 5-button flip keys from scratch. Cut the emergency blades by decoding the door lock, tested both fobs on every function, lock, unlock, trunk, remote start, panic.

Both keys were working before the police even called back. He drove home that night. The stolen key might still physically turn the lock cylinder, but the Passkey 3+ immobilizer will not let the engine fire. Done on site for a fraction of what the dealer wanted, same day, no tow.
