Key & Fob Types for Chevrolet

Chevrolet uses several key families depending on model year and trim. Knowing yours helps us quote accurately and arrive with the right parts.

  • Standard transponder keys: A metal blade with a chip in the head; the engine only starts when the chip is recognized.
  • Remote-head / flip keys: Folding blade or fixed blade combined with remote lock/unlock, trunk, and panic buttons.
  • Smart proximity fobs (push-to-start): Keyless entry and start; the vehicle authenticates the fob wirelessly.
  • Legacy non-chipped keys: Older or base models in certain years; cut and go, no chip pairing required.

We stock OEM and premium aftermarket options. We explain range, durability, and cost so you can choose the best fit for your budget and vehicle.

How Our Mobile Service Works

  1. Quick intake: Share year, model, VIN if available, and what happened (lost all keys, need a spare, fob not detected, key stuck, etc.).
  2. Dispatch to you: We arrive in Round Rock or nearby areas with key blanks, fobs, cutters, and programmers for your Chevrolet.
  3. Cut by code or decode: We mill a precise blade using manufacturer key codes or by decoding your lock/ignition.
  4. Program & pair: We pair the transponder chip or smart fob to your immobilizer/BCM and test remote functions.
  5. Final checks: Verify door locks, trunk, alarm, remote start where applicable, and smooth engine start/stop.

Everything is completed on-site with clear, upfront pricing before we start.

Lost All Keys vs. Making a Spare

All keys lost: We generate a new working key from nothing, then remove missing keys from memory when possible so only your new set can start the vehicle. This protects you if keys were stolen or misplaced with identifying info.

Duplicate spare: Faster and less expensive because we can copy from your working key and the immobilizer steps are simpler. Many Chevy owners keep a basic chipped backup plus a primary remote or smart fob for daily use.

Chevrolet Key Replacement Cost (Round Rock)

Final pricing depends on model, year, key type, and whether you still have a working key. These local estimates help you plan:

Service Typical Range (USD) Includes
Standard transponder key $140 – $220 Precision cut + chip programming + start verification
Remote-head / flip key $180 – $300 Cut + remote pairing + chip programming
Smart proximity fob (push-to-start) $240 – $460 Fob pairing + keyless entry + engine start setup
Duplicate spare (with working key) $85 – $160 Copy of blade + required programming
Ignition repair / replacement $170 – $350 Rebuild or replace; rekey to match doors if requested
Emergency unlock (lockout) $70 – $120 Non-destructive car door opening on site

You’ll receive a confirmed quote before we begin, and every key/fob includes a written warranty on electronics and blade accuracy.

Common Chevy Key & Start Issues

  • Key turns but won’t start: The immobilizer isn’t recognizing the chip; programming or antenna checks are needed.
  • Remote locks work, engine won’t: Remote and transponder are separate modules; the chip may not be paired.
  • Flip key housing breaks at the hinge: We can transfer electronics and cut a fresh blade into a new shell.
  • “No key detected” on push-to-start: Weak fob battery, interference, or fob pairing issue; we test and re-pair.
  • Key stuck or hard to turn: Worn wafers or a damaged cylinder; we repair or replace and rekey to match your existing key.
  • After battery change, fob lost functions: Some models need a re-sync; we pair and test all buttons and start.
  • ECU/BCM sync errors after collision or module swap: We perform the necessary learn procedures so your key communicates again.

Not sure if the problem is the key, fob battery, or the car? We diagnose first, then fix the right part the first time.

Immobilizer, Smart Keys & Security

Chevrolet security systems rely on transponder authentication or smart fob proximity checks before enabling the starter. When we replace keys, we follow security best practices:

  • Pair new chips or fobs to your vehicle’s BCM/immobilizer
  • Erase missing or stolen keys from memory when possible
  • Confirm correct indicator light behavior and remote functions
  • Provide guidance on storing spares and maintaining fob batteries

If your keys were stolen, let us know so we can secure your vehicle by removing old keys from the system.

Chevrolet Key Replacement FAQ

Can you make a new Chevy key if I lost every key?

Yes. We cut by code or decode the lock and pair a new transponder or smart fob to your Chevrolet. When possible, we remove missing keys from memory for security.

Do you handle proximity fobs for push-to-start models?

Absolutely. We program proximity fobs, verify keyless entry range, and confirm push-to-start operation. If your vehicle supports remote start, we test that as well.

Is a duplicate cheaper than an all-keys-lost replacement?

Yes. Duplicates are faster and less expensive because the immobilizer steps are shorter and we can copy from your working key.

What if my ignition is worn or the key won’t turn?

We service worn wafers and damaged cylinders, rekey or replace as needed, and match the new cylinder to your existing key pattern so one key works the doors and ignition.

Do you offer OEM or aftermarket fobs?

Both. We explain price and performance differences so you can pick the right option for your Chevy and budget.

How long does programming take?

Duplicates often take 20–40 minutes on site; all-keys-lost scenarios vary by model and may take longer due to security procedures.
