We were recently called out to Skelmersdale by a customer who had lost the only key to their 2009 Fiat 500. With no spare and no access to the vehicle, they needed urgent help to get back on the road — and that’s where we came in.
The job began with gaining entry to the vehicle. Since there was no key at all, we had to pick open the driver’s door lock — using professional lock-picking techniques to ensure there was no damage to the vehicle. Once inside, we then decoded the door lock to determine the correct key cuts needed to create a fully working mechanical key.
With the mechanical side sorted, it was time to move on to the electronics. We supplied and programmed a new remote key, complete with a transponder chip to communicate with the car’s immobiliser system. This step is crucial — without proper transponder programming, the car simply won’t start. We also synchronised the remote locking functions, ensuring the customer had a key that was not only functional but also convenient and secure.
