If you’re unsure what you need, we’ll diagnose the issue on the spot and explain your options in plain English before any work begins.
How We Solve Honda Key and Lock Problems
We use non-destructive methods wherever possible. On the rare occasions drilling or component replacement is unavoidable (for example, a severely damaged lock), we’ll explain why and obtain your approval first.
Here’s how our Honda auto locksmith service works:
- Assessment and ID
- We confirm your vehicle ownership and identify your Honda’s model, year, and immobiliser system.
- We run initial checks to determine whether your issue is key-related, lock/ignition-related, or a battery/electronic fault.
- Non-Destructive Vehicle Entry
- If you’re locked out, we use specialist lock picks and air wedges to gain entry without damage.
- For deadlocked Hondas or more complex scenarios, we use manufacturer-safe techniques to avoid harm to paintwork or seals.
- Cutting and Programming New Honda Keys
- We cut laser-cut and standard key blades on our mobile key cutting machines.
- We program transponder chips and smart keys using OBD2 key programming and, where required, EEPROM and ECU/immobiliser programming for certain models and years.
- We can supply and program remote fobs, smart/proximity keys, and flip keys. If your key blade is worn, we provide key blade replacement and recoding.
- Key and Fob Repairs
- We offer key fob repair, including battery replacement, micro-switch repairs, circuit board fixes, and case replacements.
- If the remote is beyond repair, we provide key fob replacement and program it to your Honda.
- Lock and Ignition Solutions
- If your Honda key won’t turn, we inspect the ignition barrel and steering lock. We offer ignition repair and replacement when necessary.
- We resolve central locking and door lock faults with non-destructive lock repair techniques.
All work is performed with dealer-level diagnostics and software tailored to Honda systems, with safeguards to protect your immobiliser and vehicle data.
Honda Key Types We Support
- Standard transponder keys (chipped)
- Remote keys with buttons for lock/unlock/boot
- Smart keys and proximity keys for push-to-start models
- Flip keys and high-security laser cut keys
If you’re unsure which key you have, a quick photo or your registration and VIN can help us identify the correct solution.

Helpful Tips for Honda Key Problems
- Signs of a failing Honda key fob include reduced range, intermittent locking, and needing to press buttons multiple times. Early repair avoids total failure.
- If “Key Not Detected” appears, try replacing the fob battery and holding the fob close to the start button. If it still fails, the fob or the vehicle’s receiver may need programming or repair.
- Keep a spare key at home or with a trusted person in Slough; it is cheaper to duplicate a working key than to create one from scratch after a loss.

FAQs
Can you make a Honda key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new Honda key without the original by decoding the lock and programming a fresh transponder or smart key to your immobiliser. This is often quicker and more convenient than going to a dealer.
How long does Honda key replacement take?
Many jobs are completed in one visit, often within the same appointment window. Timing varies with model, key type (standard vs smart), and whether immobiliser data access or EEPROM work is required.
Will you damage my Honda when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a rare exception is necessary (for example, due to a damaged lock), we’ll explain the risks and agree the approach with you first.
My Honda says “Key Not Detected.” What should I do?
Try a new fob battery and hold the fob close to the start button. If it still won’t start, the fob may need reprogramming or the vehicle’s antenna/receiver may be at fault. We can diagnose and fix both.
Do you cover evenings and weekends?
Yes. For urgent situations such as lockouts or lost keys, please call for immediate assistance. See our emergency auto locksmith in Slough.
Can you program a used Honda key fob?
In some cases, used fobs can be reprogrammed, but not all. Many smart keys are locked to the first vehicle. We’ll advise whether a used fob is suitable or supply a compatible new fob and program it.
