Value priced 2012 Dodge Charger smart key from EZ Car Keyz Thousand Oaks CA
🔧 PRO TIP
The 2012 Charger uses a FOBIK, not a traditional flip key or insert-style smart key. FCC ID IYZ-C01C, part number 56046694AH, running on the Chrysler WCM (Wireless Control Module) with Hitag2 encryption. After seven to ten years, the FOBIK shell cracks around the blade pivot and the rubber buttons go mushy, but the internal circuit board (usually marked 05026590) is typically fine. I swap the board into a fresh housing and it works like new. Always replace the CR2032 during a shell swap.

2012 Dodge Charger Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

A kindergarten teacher flagged me down at a grocery store parking lot near the Dos Vientos neighborhood in Thousand Oaks. She had a 2012 Dodge Charger, one working FOBIK, and wanted a spare before that one died on her.

Her neighbor had used me on a Chrysler 300, same platform, same WCM module, same FOBIK system. So she already knew I could do it. What she didn't know was that the dealer had quoted her a number that included a three-day wait for an appointment slot plus dropping the car off for the morning. For a spare key.

I set up on the hood that evening. Smart Pro connected to the OBD-II port, pulled the PIN from the WCM, and ran the key learn. Her Charger accepted the new FOBIK on the first pass. Cut the emergency blade on the HU101 profile right there, tested lock, unlock, trunk, remote start, and the push-button ignition.

The whole thing took maybe 25 minutes. She stood there holding both FOBIKs, kind of weighing them in her hands like she was checking if the new one felt different. It didn't.

She kept saying her neighbor told her it would be easy. He was right. Same platform as his 300, same security protocol, same result. Just done in a parking lot instead of a dealer bay, for a fraction of what they wanted.

Dodge Charger Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

I'm locked out of my 2012 Dodge Charger with no spare. Can you come to me in Thousand Oaks?
Yep. I come to wherever your Charger is sitting in the Dos Vientos neighborhood or anywhere else in Thousand Oaks. I carry FOBIK blanks, the programming hardware, and the blade cutter on the van. Some Charger owners with Uconnect try the remote unlock through the app or call center first. Forum threads on Dodge forums describe sitting on hold with Uconnect Care for 30-plus minutes while they verify identity, and sometimes the unlock command just times out or never reaches the car. I show up and handle it physically, no cell signal dependency, no hold music.
Do I have to tow my Charger to the dealer for a new key?
What do I need to prove I own the vehicle before you make a key?
My 2012 Charger sometimes shows "Key Fob Not Detected" even with a good battery. What's going on?
Can I buy a FOBIK online and program it myself to save money?
