Key reports that are lost or stolen must be completed and submitted to University Safety. A police report is required if the theft was determined to be the result of criminal or other criminal activity. The replacement fee for a lost/stolen lock key is $30 per key.

After a few years of use it's not uncommon for keys to break. If the key breaks inside the lock, you'll have to replace it. But if the remainder of the key is in good shape, you might be able to fix it.

A paperclip can grasp the broken piece from both sides and force it out. If the broken piece isn't stuck too far into the lock, you could try using a pair pliers. If the key is broken close to the lock, you might need an "key extraction" tool with a bar on it with the same barb as the screw. The bar can be placed inside the lock and by twisting it you can pierce the barb into the key to pull it out.

If you have the right tools, it's not difficult to replace the key on a keyboard. You'll need the key cap (the part of plastic that covers the switch), key pad and key retainer clip. The key cap is made of plastic or metal posts that are put into the slots of the switch. To replace a key cap, carefully remove the internal components of the key. Note their position so that you can put them back later. You may have to clean the keyboard first using ruby alcohol.

Fobs not working

It might seem absurd to think that your key device may require regular maintenance, however, it's not uncommon for them to stop working at some point. In some cases, the problem is a simple one, such as dead batteries. If you've changed your batteries, but your fob still not working, you should consider a different approach.

Another reason that causes a fob to stop working is because the buttons are been worn out. When you press the button on your fob, the contacts inside transmit coded signals to the receiver in your vehicle to indicate what actions you want the key to execute. If the contacts are worn out or damaged, pressing the button could not work properly or it may send different messages than what you intended.

This issue can be fixed quickly by using a physical car key to open your doors or start your engine. You can reset the fob following the instructions in the owner's manual of your car (check online for specific instructions).

If changing the batteries and reprogramming your key fob aren't helping then you may have to have it replaced or repaired. Modern keys need to be programmed to be compatible with your vehicle's specific VIN and certain mistakes or wear and tear could cause this programming to become corrupted.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chip on your car keys is an crucial component of the keys. The transponder chips that are in your car key are an vital component of the car key. They send signals that have an unique frequency when the key is put in the ignition. The device inside the vehicle then detects the code to identify you. The engine won't start when the device inside the car doesn't recognize the signal. This is a security measure designed to stop thieves from hot wiring their cars and driving them off.

The chip doesn't have batteries, so it doesn't require charging or replaced. It needs to be programmed by a person who has access to the ECU of your vehicle. This is why you should make sure you take your keys to a professional locksmith.

Transponder chips come in various varieties however the most well-known are Rolling Code and Crypto. Key blanks are constructed of plastic and have a slot for the glass ampoule/transponder. It is then placed into a sleeve, or carrier on the side (or bow) of the key. Here is a photo of a sleeve-carrier from a Ford Key. With the help of a PVC pipe cutter, or another method, you can take the sleeve of a damaged Ford key.

A regular transponder key is more expensive than a regular metal key because of the chip but is less expensive than a fob and smart key. The cost of these key depends on the vehicle's model and model.
