How to Get a Replacement Mazda Key

It's not unusual that car keys disappear in coat pockets, between pillows on the couch, or simply stop working. Fortunately, finding a replacement key for your Mazda Card Key isn't nearly as difficult as it used to be.

Check to see if you have an auto club membership, or bumper-tobumper insurance that covers the cost of a new mazda cx 5 key key fob before calling a locksmith.

Transponder Chip Keys

If your car was built in the last 20 years or so, there is probably an embedded transponder chip in its key head made of plastic. It might look like a small motherboard, but it's an essential element of your car's security because it stops thieves from starting your vehicle.

The method of operation is very simple. When you insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the on position the antenna ring will send out a surge of energy via radio frequency. The microchip that is on the key will respond to it with a unique code that the car's immobilizer can read and identify. The immobilizer will only allow the car to start if the correct key has been used.

Aside from a few select models of cars that don't utilize them, the vast majority of modern cars come with them. They are much more secure than older keys made of metal, since they stop a skilled and determined car burglar from using an electric wire or another method to start the car.

No matter if your transponder chip key is a blade type that must be inserted into the ignition cylinder, or one that can be kept in your pocket via an accessory like a remote the key must be cloned by a qualified locksmith who has the right equipment so that it is functional. There are many car dealerships that offer this service, but you'll usually get more value with an independent locksmith in the automotive industry.

Remote Fob Keys

The key fob of your car (or RKE device, remote keyless entry, or plastic device that unlocks your door) may seem like an uninteresting little piece of technology, but it's got more than one, boring use. Fobs are able to lower the windows, summon your vehicle, and park it in tight spots (if you have a vehicle with that feature).

The latest fobs have been designed to withstand the elements, and come with a "Panic" button that can be pressed to produce loud noises and scare away individuals who might be attempting to steal the vehicle. You can also use it to call emergency services or to send GPS coordinates to the dispatch center. We recommend that you get an extra key or fob if you don't own one already. Some auto insurance policies, extended warranties, and club memberships will pay for a new key or fob.

In most cases, you can order the new fob through a dealer and it's generally cheaper to purchase it from the parts department rather than the service department. Dealers will not program an aftermarket key fob for your car unless you can prove ownership and registration. You can get a second functioning fob programmed at a locksmith. However, websites that offer the service require that you have a keycode stamped on a plaque made of metal that is attached to the fob. It must be stored in a secure location (like your glovebox). Use a small screwdriver as well as the key code found in the owner's manual or at the dealership to pry the fob's case off.

Keyless Entry Keys

Keyless entry is a great convenience and is available in a majority of new vehicles. The car key fob typically has buttons for locking and unlocking as well as opening the trunk or rolling down windows. Other security features can be added like a security feature that can prevent the car from being initiated by anyone other than the owner. A tracking device can also aid in deterring thieves when you are worried about theft.

Keyless entry is an excellent option, but it can also fail as with any other item of equipment or accessory. The key fob could be lost, the battery could die, or it might be damaged if it is dropped on an unforgiving surface. These problems are difficult to fix as the key fob is made up of electronic components instead of metal components.

The engine will not begin when the key hasn't been properly inserted. Your car will also be locked. While this feature does reduce the risk of vehicle theft however it can make life difficult if your ignition cylinder isn't functioning correctly.

If your car isn't getting started, or you're forced to shake the key too much before it is able to engage this could be a sign of that there is a problem with your ignition cylinder. If this happens, you'll need to have it replaced.

In order to remove the old cylinder you'll need to remove the steering wheel, and remove the plastic cover that protects it. The procedure will differ from car to car however, most of the time, you'll require a screwdriver in order to push an retaining tab, and then simply slide the cylinder out.
