1998 Mazda MPV Metal Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

If you're reading this because you have zero keys for your 1998 Mazda MPV and need help right now, here's what to do. First, find your VIN. It's a 17-character code on the bottom left of your windshield on the driver's side, also on your registration and insurance card. Second, have your ID ready. Third, know where the car is and whether you can stay with it. Then call me.

A pharmacy tech called from a dark strip mall lot in Santa Barbara at 9:45pm after her closing shift. She was exhausted and panicking. Her only key to her MPV was gone. She checked her pockets, the store, the lot. Nothing. She didn't have her registration and couldn't remember what a VIN was.

I talked her through it on the phone. I told her to look through the windshield at the base of the glass on the driver's side. She found the VIN with her phone flashlight. I told her to check her insurance app, and the registration was there. With the VIN I already knew her key type and prepped the right blank before leaving. I used my IM508S to run the all-keys-lost procedure, programming two new fobs as the Mazda system requires. Her fob, FCC ID , was a -button remote that I built and programmed under the strip mall lights. She calmed down a lot once I told her I was on my way.

She drove home that night. Total was 95. Dealer would have charged 200 plus a tow, and they were closed. The VIN is the single most useful thing you can give me. Text it before I arrive.
