PORTLAND TRANSPONDER CHIP KEY REPLACEMENT
Transponder keys exist for the protection of the car owner. A special radio frequency chip in the head of your key communicates with the ignition. If you attempt to start the car with a key that doesn't send the right code, the car won't start. That's bad news for thieves, but good news for car owners...unless you lose your special chip key. The hardware store can't manufacture chip keys, so your choices for transponder key replacement are limited to having the car towed to the dealership or calling Pop-A-Lock Portland for fast, roadside service.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE A TRANSPONDER?
