Common Issues with Hyundai Kona Ignitions and Keys

Key Types and Programming Techniques
Key Chips and Remotes
The Hyundai Kona utilizes specific key types that require precise programming. Our expertise includes handling various key models and programming methods. Here are some notable examples:
-
2018 Hyundai Kona (Job 68558): In this case, the customer experienced an all-keys-lost situation. We provided an aftermarket key solution using the Autel tool, programming a SKIA9TE Kia N-R transponder key without the need for EEPROM access.
-
2018 Hyundai Kona (Job 69332): We also dealt with another all-keys-lost case for this model, utilizing a genuine remote key supplied by the customer. Again, the programming was done using Autel tools without requiring EEPROM access.
-
2019 Hyundai Kona (Job 66136): For this job, a spare key was created using a customer-supplied genuine key, showcasing our ability to program various key types efficiently.
Spare Keys
Creating spare keys is an essential service we provide to enhance convenience and security. Here are examples of our spare key programming:
-
2021 Hyundai Kona (Job 82941): We programmed an aftermarket non-remote spare key using Autel and VVDI Key Tool Max. The SKIA9TE transponder key was programmed without EEPROM access, though we noted that some keys require a PIN if cloning is not possible.
-
2017 Hyundai Kona (Job 116719): In this case, we programmed a proximity key using the same tools. We successfully handled a BMW-style XHorse 3-button prox key and confirmed compatibility with the Kona’s keyless entry system (ID47 95440-J9101).
Key Cloning and Programming
While key cloning is often a straightforward process, some Hyundai Kona keys may require special attention. For instance, certain keys might not be cloneable, necessitating the retrieval of a PIN to proceed with programming.
