RESTORE YOUR FOB AND YOUR ACCESS…
Key fob repair and fault diagnosis
When your key fob starts acting up — or stops working altogether — it can be stressful.
At Key Clinic, our Stoke-on-Trent based mobile technicians come directly to you to diagnose and repair your key fob. We can save you time, money, and the headache of going to the dealer.
Our key fob service includes:
Professional diagnostics
- We’ll test battery strength, signal frequency, and the transponder/immobiliser chip. If your fob isn’t communicating with your vehicle, we can pinpoint whether the fault is in the fob itself or in the car’s receiver.
Repair, and replace if necessary
- If your fob’s casing is cracked or the buttons are worn, we can replace those parts.
- For circuit board issues, we can do micro-soldering or component repair.
- We can also replace batteries with safe, compatible alternatives.
- If your fob has water damage, we’ll inspect and attempt to repair the internal electronics with careful cleaning and testing.
Programming and re-pairing
- Using our advanced diagnostic tools, we’ll reprogram your fob to sync with your vehicle’s immobiliser system, ensuring locking, unlocking, and starting all work correctly.
- We’ll test the key thoroughly — lock/unlock, engine start, alarm signals — before handing it back.
Security and peace of mind
- We verify your vehicle’s make and model, and make sure all work is done securely.
- If your fob needs replacing rather than repairing, we can supply a programmed replacement and pair it with your car safely.
- We’ll also advise on future-proofing, like keeping a spare, so you’re less likely to be stuck next time.
