Q: Do I need to tow my car to the dealer if I have no keys?

No. That is the dealer solution, not the only solution. Honda dealers will tell you to tow the car in, and some owners report being told that is their only option. A CR-V owner was told to tow the vehicle to the dealership for an all-keys-lost program. Towing alone adds 100 to 200 to the bill before the dealer even starts. We come to wherever the vehicle is sitting and handle the entire AKL process on site, from decoding and cutting to programming and testing.

Q: How long does an all-keys-lost replacement take?

For most late-model Hondas, the entire process takes 45 to 90 minutes on site. That includes connecting to the immobilizer, running the security procedure, cutting a new key, programming the transponder and remote functions, and testing everything. Honda dealers block 1 to 2 hours of shop time for AKL work, but the real door-to-door time often stretches much longer once you add check-in, waiting for a tech, and parts delays. We get it done in one visit at your location.

Q: What battery does the 2006 Honda Civic key fob use?

The 2006 Honda Civic uses a CR1616 battery. You can find them at most auto parts stores or pharmacies for a few dollars. When we make a replacement key, we always install a fresh battery so you are starting with a full charge. If your Honda fob is losing range or acting inconsistent after a battery swap, the issue may be with the fob itself or the vehicle receiver, not the battery.

Q: Can you make a spare at the same time so I have two keys?

Yes, and we strongly recommend it. Honda systems are designed to program all keys in one session. When we enter programming mode on your Honda, the car expects every working key to be present because any key not enrolled during the session is dropped from memory. That means adding a second key during the same visit costs much less than coming back for a separate session later. Two keys also means you never end up in another all-keys-lost situation, which is always more expensive than a spare.

2006 Honda Civic Remote head key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

I've been replacing Honda keys in Thousand Oaks for over 8 years. My YouTube channel has over 113,000 subscribers watching me do real jobs on real cars. Not animations, not stock footage. Actual key replacements filmed at the vehicle. I show the tools, the process, the mistakes when they happen, and the finished result.

A retiree downsizing at a self-storage facility in Thousand Oaks had his 2006 Honda Civic key start acting up. He found me on YouTube months earlier watching a Honda key replacement video, saw the process, and saved my number. When the key finally failed, he already knew who to call. He told me he liked that he could see exactly what the job looked like before he ever picked up the phone.

I used my VVDI Key Tool to program his replacement fob. His fob, FCC ID N5F-S0084A, was a 4-button remote. Every button tested, start tested three times, range tested from the storage gate.

His key cost about 185. The dealer charges 395 for the same job. My review count isn't just a number. Each review is a real Honda, Ford, Toyota, or other make that I worked on in the field. There's no dispatcher, no call center, and no mystery tech showing up. The same person from the YouTube videos is the same person at your car.

Lost Your Honda Civic Key? Here's What to Know

What to expect when we arrive

I lost all my Honda keys. Can you still make a new one?▼

Yes. All-keys-lost is one of the most common calls we get on Hondas. We connect our scan tool to your 2006 Honda Civic through the OBD-II port, run the Honda immobilizer procedure to erase old keys and register new ones, cut a fresh blade, and hand you a fully working key. No tow needed, no dealer visit. Civic, Accord, CR-V, Pilot, Odyssey, Fit, and most other Honda models from the late 1990s through current can be handled on site.
