🔧 PRO TIP
The 2016 Ram 2500 FOBIK shell cracks at the seam from drops and heavy keychains, especially on work trucks. The good news: the electronics and the Hitag AES transponder chip almost always survive. You can swap the guts into a new GQ4-53T shell with a fresh button pad in about five minutes. Costs next to nothing for the shell. But if the internal circuit board (marked 56046956AG or similar) is cracked, that is a different story and needs a full replacement and reprogram.

2016 Ram 2500 Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

A vendor packing up after an event near Ojai Valley Trail had his key snap inside the door lock of his 2016 Ram 2500. The blade broke clean off from years of heavy use. Just the stub left in the cylinder.

Another locksmith had already told him the lock would need to be drilled. New cylinder, new keys, the whole thing.

I drove out to Ojai and started with the broken FOBIK head still sitting on his tailgate. The Hitag AES chip inside was intact, so I pulled the transponder data with my VVDI2. Then I used my CY24 Lishi tool to extract the broken blade fragment from the lock without scratching the wafer surfaces. Once the piece was out, I decoded the lock right there and cut a fresh CY24 blade.

His FOBIK, the 5-button GQ4-53T, went into a new housing with the original chip and a fresh CR2032. I synced the remote functions through the OBD port, tested all five buttons, cycled the ignition twice, and checked that the Sentry Key immobilizer accepted the rebuilt unit without throwing any codes.

No drilling, no cylinder swap. The truck looked exactly the same as before it happened. He just stood there turning the new key over in his hand like he was waiting for a catch. There was no catch. That is the whole point of lock decoding: read it, don't break it.

The job cost him a fraction of what the other guy quoted for the destructive route.

Ram 2500 Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

How does a 2016 Ram 2500 key replacement from a locksmith compare to the dealer?
Way less. The dealer process on these trucks involves ordering the FOBIK (part number 68159655), scheduling a visit, then paying separately for the part, the blade cut, and the wiTECH programming labor. Ram HD owners on forums like Cumminsforum and 5thGenRams regularly report totals well north of what you would expect for a single key. I show up with the key, cut it on site, program the Hitag AES transponder and sync the remote, all in one visit. One price, everything included, done wherever the truck is parked in Ojai.
Is a mobile locksmith able to handle the secure gateway on my Ram 2500?
Does your price include cutting, programming, and the key itself?
My FOBIK buttons are barely responding. Do I need a whole new key?
Can I buy a FOBIK online and have you just program it?
