All keys must be kept secure at all the time. There is no way to have more than one at a time (except for keys that have been damaged in locks). Key reports that are lost or stolen must be completed and submitted to University Safety. A police report is required if the loss was believed to be the result of criminal crime. The cost of replacement for a stolen lock key is $30 per key and must be paid to the responsible holder of the key.

Broken Keys

It's not unusual for keys to break after just a few years. If your keys break in the lock, you'll have to purchase a new one. If the rest of the lock key is still in good shape, you may be able repair it.

A paperclip can be used to grasp the broken piece on both sides and lever it out. If the broken piece is not stuck too far into the lock, you can try using pliers. If the key is damaged close to the lock, you might need an "key extraction" tool that has an iron bar that has an elongated barb that is similar to screws. The bar is put into the locking mechanism, and then rotated to dig the barb into it. The bar will then pull out the key.

It's easy to replace a key on a keyboard with the proper tools. You'll require the key cap (the plastic part that fits over the switch) and a key pad and a key-retention clip. The key cap has little plastic or metal posts on its underside that fit into small slots on the switch. To replace a key cap take care to remove the internal components of the key and record their location so that you can put them back later. You may have to clean the keyboard with rubbing alcohol prior to moving on.

Fobs not working

It may seem absurd that your key fob needs routine maintenance, however they can stop working at any time. Sometimes, the issue can be as simple as an unresponsive battery. If you've changed your batteries but your fob does not work, it might be time to look at a different solution.


Another common reason for fobs to stop working is because the buttons have worn out. When you press the button on your fob, the contacts send coded signals to the receiver inside your car which communicates what actions you want your key to do. If these contacts are worn out and damaged, pressing the button might not function properly or it could send different messages than you were hoping for.

A possible quick fix for this issue is to make use of a physical key to unlock your car's doors or start the engine. You can reset the fob following the procedure found in your car's owner's manual (check online for instructions for your particular model).

If replacing the batteries and reprogramming your key fob isn't working you, you may need to have it replaced or repaired. Modern keys have to be programmed with your vehicle's Vehicle Identification Number. Errors or wear and tear can corrupt the programming.

Transponder Chips

The transponder chip that is in your car keys is a very important component of the key. The transponder chip in your car key are a very essential component of the car key. They send signals that have a unique frequency, when the key is placed into the ignition. The device inside the vehicle then detects the code to identify you. The engine will not start even if the device inside the car does not recognize the signal, which is intended as security measure to prevent thieves from hot wiring cars and driving them away.

The chip is not an battery, therefore it does not require charging or replaced. It has 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 are available in a variety of varieties that are widely used, but the most commonly used are Rolling Code and Crypto. Key blanks feature the head of a plastic with slots that hold the glass ampoule/transponder, it is then placed in the carrier (or sleeve) to the side of the bow (plastic head). There is a picture of one of these carriers from the back of a Ford key here. With seat car keys , or another method, you can get rid of the sleeve from a damaged Ford key.

A regular transponder key is more expensive than a steel key due to the chip, but is less expensive than a fob or smart key. The cost of these keys will depend on the vehicle's make and model.
