Key Fob Programming in Dallas–Fort Worth
A new key fob won’t lock, unlock, or start your car until it’s programmed to your vehicle. Whether you bought a replacement fob or yours quit working, we program it to your car at your location.
A key fob is more than a battery and buttons — it carries a code your car has to recognize. Buy a replacement fob online or grab one from a dealer and it’s just a paperweight until it’s programmed and paired to your specific vehicle’s system.
We program fobs to your car on site: remote lock and unlock, trunk, and remote start where your vehicle supports it — plus the immobilizer pairing that lets it start the engine on push-to-start and turn-key cars alike.
What fob programming covers
Depending on your vehicle and fob, we handle:
- Remote functions — lock, unlock, trunk, panic, and remote start where equipped.
- Immobilizer pairing — so the fob actually starts the engine, not just works the doors.
- Replacement fobs you bought, or a new fob we supply.
- Reprogramming a fob that stopped being recognized.

Jose has been a great help in diagnosing, troubleshooting, and reprogramming the airbags on my 2016 Mazda Miata. I’ve found his pricing to be very competitive, and his turnaround time is quick. Additionally, working with Jose is convenient since he’s mobile.
Excellent service!! Sent my SRS module from FL to have it checked. The day they received it, they had it fixed and mailed back out the very same evening. When I received it, plugged it in and SRS light on dash gone. Thanks LockNCal, very much appreciated!
The process went very smooth. Took it out broken shipped it away brought it back and all was well. Great job.
