Cutting is different from programming

A cut blade may still need an electronic transponder or remote programmed to the vehicle. The two steps are separate and requirements vary.

Details that help

Share the year, make, model, key type if known, and whether the key is a spare or replacement. We confirm blank and profile availability before proceeding.

Before you request service

Common questions

Does cutting a blade program the key?

No. Cutting shapes the blade. A transponder or remote may need a separate programming step.

Can any blank be cut for my vehicle?

Blank and profile compatibility vary. They are checked for the specific vehicle and key.
