This Is The Mazda Key Case Study You'll Never Forget
How to Get a Replacement Mazda Key


It is not uncommon for car keys to go missing in coat pockets, under couch pillows, or stop working. Fortunately, changing mazda 2 key replacement isn't nearly as difficult as it once was.

Find out if you have an auto club membership, or bumper-to-bumper insurance that covers the cost of a brand new Mazda key fob before calling locksmith.

Transponder Chip Keys

If your car was manufactured in the last 20 years or so, then it likely has the transponder chip that is built into its plastic key head. Although it appears to be an insignificant component, it is a very important part of the car's security system as it prevents theft by stopping people from opening your vehicle.

The way it works is simple - when you insert the key into the ignition and switch it to the on position, the antenna ring sends out a surge of energy through radio frequency. The microchip that is on your key will respond it by generating a unique code the immobilizer on your car can recognize and read. The immobilizer only allows the car to start when the correct key has been used.

Aside from a few select automobile models that do not use them, the vast majority of modern cars have them. They are much more secure than older metal keys, as they stop a skilled and determined car burglar from using a hot wire or other method to start the vehicle.

Regardless of whether your transponder chip key is a traditional blade style that must be inserted in the ignition cylinder or one that stays in your pocket with a remote fob the key must be cloned by a qualified locksmith with special equipment before it can work properly. This service is available at many car dealerships, but an independent automotive locksmith will usually offer an affordable price.

Remote Fob Keys

The key fob in your car (or RKE device, remote keyless entry, or plastic device that unlocks your door) might appear to be an uninteresting little piece of technology, but it serves more than one mundane use. Fobs are able to lower your windows, summon your car and place it in tight spaces (if you own a vehicle with that feature).

The latest fobs have been designed to withstand the rigors of use, and include a "Panic" button that can be pressed to make loud noises that scare away individuals who might be attempting to steal the vehicle. It can also be used to call emergency services or to send GPS coordinates to the dispatch center. We recommend purchasing a spare fob or key if you don't own one already. Some auto insurance policies, extended warranties and club memberships will pay for the purchase of a new key or fob.

In most cases you can purchase the new fob through dealers and it's generally cheaper to buy it through the parts department than through the service department. However, every dealer we surveyed stated that they wouldn't program an aftermarket fob to work with your car without proof of ownership and registration. However, you can find a working fob programmed by a locksmith. However, websites advertising this service require a key code number that is stamped on a plate of metal that is attached to the fob set, and then stored in a secure location (like your glove box). Use a small screwdriver as well as the key code found in your owner's guide or at the dealership to pry the fob's case open.

Keyless Entry Keys

Many new cars come with keyless entry as a standard feature. The car key fob comes with buttons to lock and unlock the car, as well as to open the trunk and roll down windows. It may also include other security features like a security lock to stop the car from being started without the owner present. A tracking device may help to deter thieves in the event of theft.

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

Ignition Cylinder Replacement

Ignition cylinders form an integral component of the security systems used in the majority of modern cars. The system guarantees that your car will only operate when you insert the proper key and turn it. If it's not then the engine will not start and your car will be locked. While this feature does reduce the possibility of theft of your vehicle but it also makes the life of your ignition cylinder isn't working properly.

If your car isn't starting, or you're having to shake the key too much before it is able to engage it, this could indicate a problem with the ignition cylinder. When this occurs, you'll need have it replaced.

In order to take the old cylinder out, you'll need to lift your steering wheel and take off the plastic cover that protects it. The process may differ from vehicle to vehicle but generally speaking, you'll need a screwdriver to depress a retaining tab and then simply take the cylinder off.

Then you'll have to replace the steering wheel cylinder. While this isn't an extremely difficult job, it does require some technical knowledge. If you're not confident with this task, you may want to ask a professional to take care of it. They'll have the equipment and expertise needed to complete the task correctly.
