Honda City Locksmith Job History: Proven Expertise
2009 Honda City: Programming and Remote Issues
One of the challenges we often face with Honda City vehicles is programming transponder keys. Locksmith Kent worked on a 2009 Honda City that required a 46-chip key to be programmed using Smart Pro. However, while the key was successfully coded, the remote system failed to respond, indicating a possible issue with the vehicle’s electronics. This type of problem is not uncommon in older Honda City models and highlights the importance of having access to the dealer codes or removing the ignition to retrieve the necessary key codes for programming.
2014 Honda City: All Keys Lost and Spare Key Programming
Losing all keys to a vehicle is one of the most stressful situations a car owner can face. Locksmith Kile handled an all-keys-lost situation for a Honda City, using a non-remote aftermarket transponder key to get the customer back on the road. The key was programmed with the Zedfull tool, which is particularly effective for Honda vehicles that require precise key coding. Despite the complexity of the job, our team ensured the vehicle was back in operation with minimal downtime.
On another occasion in 2014, locksmith Kent successfully programmed a spare remote key for a Honda City using the Smart Pro tool and the KD Remote Programmer. This job involved a VW 2-button flip key, which was supplied as an aftermarket solution. By using advanced tools like Smart Pro and KD Remote Programmer, Terry’s Locksmiths ensures that spare key programming is both efficient and reliable.
2017 Honda City: Spare Key Programming
One of our more recent jobs involved programming a spare key for a 2017 Honda City. At our Southport workshop, locksmith Mitch used the Smart Pro tool to program a 3-button flip key. This type of key, often referred to as a universal flip key, is a popular aftermarket option for Honda City owners looking for an affordable and practical solution. Our ability to program these keys quickly and accurately ensures that customers can have spare keys available in case of emergencies.
Common Honda City Locksmith Issues Around the World
Honda City vehicles, like many Honda models, are known for their reliability, but they can experience certain common issues. Ignition problems are a frequent complaint, particularly in older models where the ignition cylinder can wear down over time. This can result in the key becoming stuck or the vehicle failing to start, often requiring ignition repairs or key replacement.
All-keys-lost situations are another common issue, particularly in models where the key codes are not readily available. In these cases, removing the ignition to retrieve the key code or contacting the dealer for codes is often necessary. Additionally, programming remote keys can sometimes be problematic due to faulty remotes or issues with the car’s electronic systems, as we’ve seen in the 2009 Honda City job.
Spare key programming is also a frequent service request. Many Honda City owners prefer to have an extra key on hand for convenience and peace of mind. Our experience programming both remote and non-remote keys ensures that we can handle these jobs quickly and efficiently.
