Which Type of Jeep Key Do You Have?

Old Jeeps are usually equipped with a conventional bladed transponder key that has the electronic chip embedded in the head. In some later models, various remote key and fob systems have been installed, and some modern Jeeps use the proximity smart fob for their keyless entry and push button start systems. Please help us and provide the details of your car when you give us a call.

When Your Jeep Suddenly Stops Recognizing a Working Key

Jeep with an unexpected failure of its fob to work does not always require a new one. Fob failures usually come about after the repair of electrical components, replacement of modules, programming, and other modifications to the car’s security system. It is possible that all you need to do is to register or program your keys in order for them to work in your car again. We examine all the aspects of your car’s fob including the car’s battery and security system before we recommend replacements.

Wranglers Key Fob Issues

Life for a Wrangler is much more wet than for other automobiles, and your key usually reflects this condition long before any other part of the vehicle does. Fobs that have been subjected to rain, have been intentionally submerged or even just dragged through an unusually humid Cleveland summer tend to develop internal corrosion and become intermittent well before failing completely. It may be tolerable for your fob to require pressing twice or even only work when you are close enough to the vehicle, but this is a problem waiting to happen rather than an unusual characteristic, and dealing with it now is much less expensive than waiting until it no longer works.

Tell Us About Your Aftermarket Components

Many Jeep owners equip their vehicles with winches, light bars, alarm systems, remote starters and additional electrical components, usually installation of these devices causes no trouble, but the aftermarket wiring system or remote start bypass module can influence the electrical and security system in a way that makes diagnosing a key fob problem more difficult. It would help if you let us know about any installed aftermarket electrical equipment since it will enable our technician to inspect the installed parts during diagnostics rather than assume immediately that the key or fob needs to be replaced.

Before our technicians leave, they'll have your Jeep key fob programmed and tested to ensure it successfully starts the engine and performs the supported remote functions, the missing keys will also be deleted from the system so that they cannot be used to start the vehicle anymore. Please call our Cleveland service phone number with your driver's license and vehicle registration handy, we at Car Key Replacement Cleveland offer a 24/7 mobile service in Cleveland, so give us a call and we'll have your new car key ready in no time.
