2009 Honda CR-V
Key Replacement - Dealer Quality, Half the Cost in Ventura County

Q: What is a remote head key?

A remote head key is the type of key your 2009 Honda CR-V uses. It contains a programmed transponder chip that communicates with your vehicle immobilizer system to authorize the engine to start. It also has 3 buttons for remote lock, unlock, and other functions. Without proper programming, even a perfectly cut key will be rejected by your Honda security system. We program everything on site so your new key works exactly like the original.

Q: How long does the dealer process take for Honda key replacement?

Longer than most Honda owners expect. One owner spent three hours at the dealer and paid 135, only to leave with a key that did not work. Honda dealers routinely book 1 to 2 hour service slots for key work, but the actual door-to-door time often stretches to 2 to 3 hours once you factor in check-in, waiting for a tech, and paperwork. If the dealer needs to order a fob, add 3 days to a week before they even start. With EZ Car Keyz, the job is done in one visit, usually under an hour, right at your location in Santa Paula, Santa Paula Creek area.

Q: What is the FCC ID for the 2009 Honda CR-V key?

The FCC ID is MLBHLIK-1T. This is the identifier printed on the back of your key fob that tells us exactly which key your vehicle requires. It ensures we match the correct blank, chip frequency, and remote protocol so the key programs correctly on the first attempt. Having this number ready when you call speeds up the process and confirms we are bringing the right key to your location.

Q: What areas do you cover?

We cover all of Santa Paula, Santa Paula Creek area and surrounding communities. Our mobile service comes directly to your location whether you are at home, at work, in a parking lot, or on the side of the road. Honda owners in our area do not need to arrange a tow or sit in a dealer waiting room. We bring the shop to you with all the tools and key blanks needed for your Honda on board.

2009 Honda CR-V Remote head key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

If you need a key for your 2009 Honda CR-V, I come to you and handle everything on the spot. It's around 185, and that covers the key, the cut, and the programming. Dealer charges closer to 395 for the same job plus a tow to get there.

A college senior at his apartment carport near Santa Paula Creek called the dealer first. They quoted him 395 and told him to tow it in. He'd dropped his only key on concrete and it cracked the transponder housing. He figured that was just what Honda keys cost now. I told him it wasn't even close and that I could be there in about 20 minutes.

So I drove out to his carport and used my HON66 Lishi to pick his door open, then decoded the cuts right off the lock cylinder. After that I had his remote head key with FCC ID MLBHLIK-1T cut and programmed through OBD in about 40 minutes. I showed him the cracked housing on the old key so he'd know what to look for if it ever happened again.

He saved over half versus the dealer and never had to leave his apartment.

Honda CR-V Mobile Service Questions

Your key replacement cost breakdown

Do I have to go to the Honda dealer to get a replacement key?▼

No. A qualified mobile locksmith can cut and program a remote head key for your 2009 Honda CR-V right where the vehicle sits. Honda dealers will tell you they are the only option, but that is not the case for the vast majority of models. The dealer route means scheduling an appointment, towing if you have no working key, and sometimes waiting days for a fob to arrive. One Honda parts employee reported a customer who waited over a year and a half for an OEM fob to come in on backorder.
