When You Need a Mitsubishi Auto Locksmith
Mitsubishi vehicles use modern immobiliser systems and transponder technology. When something goes wrong, you’ll notice it quickly. Common situations we handle every day in Slough, Langley, Cippenham, Windsor, Maidenhead, and across SL postcodes include:
- Lost or stolen Mitsubishi keys with no spare
- Locked keys in car or in the boot
- Key snapped in the door lock or ignition
- Remote key fob not responding, even after a battery change
- Car won’t start, key symbol flashing on the dash
- Central locking not working on one door after key/fob damage
- Worn or damaged key blade that won’t turn the lock
- Need a spare Mitsubishi key for convenience or peace of mind
If any of these sound familiar, our Mitsubishi locksmiths can help with precise diagnostics, non-destructive entry wherever possible, and on-the-spot key cutting and programming for most Mitsubishi models.
Mitsubishi Key Solutions and How We Work
We combine 10+ years of experience with dealer-level equipment to solve Mitsubishi key and lock issues quickly and correctly. Here’s how we help:
Non-Destructive Vehicle Unlocking
- Techniques first: We use specialist lock picks and air wedges designed for Mitsubishi locks, prioritising non-destructive entry to protect your vehicle’s finish and electronics.
- Exceptions explained: On rare occasions (for example, severe lock damage or aftermarket deadlocks), minimal drilling or component removal may be required. We’ll explain the risks and get your approval before proceeding.
- Immediate access: Ideal for keys locked in the boot or cabin on models like ASX, L200, Outlander, and Eclipse Cross.
For more detail on our approach, see our dedicated car unlock service in Slough.
Mitsubishi Car Key Replacement
- On-site cutting and coding: We cut new Mitsubishi keys from your lock or VIN (where data access allows) and program them at the roadside, without towing to a dealer.
- All key types: Standard transponder keys, remote flip keys, and smart/proximity keys for push-to-start models.
- Secure erase: If keys are lost or stolen, we can delete old keys from the immobiliser where supported, so they no longer start the car.

Mitsubishi Car Key Programming
Mitsubishi immobiliser systems require correct pairing between the key’s transponder and the ECU. We handle:
- Transponder key programming via OBD2, using dealer-level diagnostic tools
- Smart key programming for proximity/push-button start systems
- EEPROM programming for certain situations where direct immobiliser access is required (for example, all keys lost on some models)
- ECU/immobiliser pairing and sync where needed after battery issues or module replacement
If your fob has stopped responding or you’ve had battery and dashboard warning issues, see our specialist Car Key Programming service and our guide to key fob not working.
Ignition and Lock Issues
- Broken key extraction from door locks or ignition barrels
- Lock and ignition repair to resolve “key won’t turn” or intermittent start
- Replacement of worn lock components matched to your existing key where possible
If you’re experiencing sticking barrels or a key that won’t turn, our technicians can diagnose and repair or replace components. You can also read about related issues on our page for car lock and ignition problems.

FAQs: Mitsubishi Keys and Locks
Can you make a Mitsubishi key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key from scratch for most Mitsubishi models. Depending on your vehicle and immobiliser, we’ll either program a new transponder/smart key via OBD2 or, in some all-keys-lost cases, use EEPROM techniques. This is a secure process that allows us to disable missing keys where supported.
My Mitsubishi says “key not detected”. What should I do?
First, try your spare key (if you have one) and replace the key fob battery. If the issue persists, there could be a transponder, antenna, or immobiliser sync problem. We can run diagnostics, reprogram the key, or pair a new smart key so the car recognises it again.
How long does Mitsubishi key replacement take?
Many replacements are completed roadside in a single visit, often within one appointment window the same day, depending on your location in the SL area and key type. Smart/proximity keys can take longer due to programming steps, but we aim to get you back on the road efficiently.
Will you damage my Mitsubishi when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. In rare cases—such as damaged locks or additional security devices—minor drilling or component removal may be necessary. We will always explain the situation and get your approval before proceeding.
Do you support Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV smart keys?
Yes. We handle smart key programming and replacement for the Outlander PHEV, including push-button start. Our tools allow safe pairing and testing so your vehicle starts and remote functions operate correctly.
Is it cheaper to go to a dealer for Mitsubishi keys?
Not usually when timing and convenience are considered. As a mobile auto locksmith in Slough, we come to you, remove the need for towing, and can often deliver same-day solutions. For how pricing works without fixed rates, visit our page on auto locksmith prices in Slough.
