2018 Mazda CX-5 Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Got a call from a guy in the Gonzales Road commercial area in Oxnard. He runs a small shipping office over there, and his 2018 CX-5 Grand Touring had been a one-key car since he bought it used. He said he'd been meaning to get a spare for over a year but kept putting it off.
Then last Tuesday the only key disappeared. Gone. Not in his jacket, not under the seat, not in the office drawer. All keys lost.
I pulled up about 40 minutes after his call. The CX-5 was sitting in the lot, locked, no working key anywhere. I used my MAZ24 Lishi to decode the driver door lock, reading each wafer position one at a time. That gave me the full cut data without needing a key code or the original blade.
Cut the emergency insert key on the spot, got inside, connected through the OBD port to the Mazda module, and ran the smart key registration. The WAZSKE13D01 fob picked right up. Tested all four buttons, tested proximity unlock on both front doors, tested push-button start in every gear position.
He stood there watching the whole time, holding his coffee, not saying much. When the engine turned over he just nodded and said, "That would have been my whole afternoon at the dealer."
It was about 35 minutes from the Lishi pick to handing him two working smart keys.

“My Chevy key snapped while I was running errands in North Oxnard. He removed the broken piece from the ignition, cut a new blade, programmed the transponder, and tested everything thoroughly. The whole job was smooth and professional. Best automotive locksmith I have used.”
“My car keys were stolen on a cold evening and Nick drove all the way out to Santa Barbara. He got into my car, made a new key, and charged $100 less than another company. Friendly, skilled, trustworthy, and genuinely caring. Nick is a hero.”
