1999 Honda CR-V Metal Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

She was at a taco stand patio in Ventura after a long shift and her bag was gone. Someone had grabbed it off the table with her car keys, wallet, and phone inside. She borrowed the cashier's phone and called the police first, then her sister, then me.

Her 1999 Honda CR-V was in the lot with zero keys. The dealer told her sister they could order a key but it would take 3 to 5 business days, the car would need to be towed in, and they recommended having the locks rekeyed since the stolen key could still open the car. Combined estimate was over $700.

I got there that night. All-keys-lost is a different procedure than adding a spare. When you add a key, the car already trusts an existing key and just adds a new one to its list. AKL means I have to clear the entire key memory and start fresh. I used my IM608 to access the immobilizer module, wipe the old key data so the stolen key would no longer start the car, and program two new keys from scratch. Her smart key, FCC ID , was a -button proximity fob. I decoded the lock with my Lishi, cut the emergency blade, and had both fobs working before the police called back.

She drove home that night. Total was 95 for two new keys. The dealer estimated 200 plus a tow and a multi-day wait. The stolen key can still physically open the door, but the immobilizer won't let the engine start. She had two fresh keys and the old one was effectively dead to the car.
