Dealerships typically charge $200-$500+ for key fob replacement and programming. Our mobile service costs significantly less – usually 25-50% savings compared to dealer pricing.
The exact cost depends on your vehicle’s make, model, and key fob type. Smart keys with push-button start cost more than basic remote fobs, but you’ll still save substantial money compared to dealership rates.
We provide upfront pricing over the phone, so there are no surprises when we arrive at your Folcroft location.

Our technicians are trained on the latest programming procedures and use professional-grade diagnostic equipment to ensure proper synchronization with your vehicle’s computer system.

A dead key fob battery is an easy fix – we can replace the battery on the spot for a minimal cost. Most key fob batteries cost under $10 and take just a few minutes to replace.
If your key fob is physically damaged, lost, or the internal electronics have failed, you’ll need a complete replacement. We can determine the issue when we arrive and give you options.
Sometimes what seems like a dead fob is actually a programming issue or a problem with your car’s receiver. Our diagnostic equipment can pinpoint the exact problem and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
We can program aftermarket key fobs, but we recommend being careful about online purchases. Many cheap fobs don’t work properly or fail quickly, which ends up costing you more in the long run.
If you do buy your own fob, make sure it’s compatible with your specific vehicle year, make, and model. We charge a programming fee for customer-supplied fobs, but we can’t warranty fobs we didn’t provide.
For the best results and warranty coverage, we recommend using OEM-quality fobs that we supply and program. The small additional cost usually pays for itself in reliability and longevity.
