Help. Lost my car keys. What should i do?

Prototype-Tuner · Postby **Prototype-Tuner** » August 12th, 2015, 11:59 pm

I lost my car keys for a nissan y11 ad wagon.

What should i do.

What do i need to get.

Bought a new ignition switch and got a new key.

But if ignition changed door locks will be different.

Dont have any alarm installed.

Is there anyway to get the new key i got with the ignition to lock the doors from outside?

If i install an alarm will the doors lock when alarm is pressed?

Please any help or info will be appreciated.

Take it to a good lock smith and they will synch everything.

Come on fellas be serious now. This happened to me with a BMW last year. Car couldn't move from work for days.

Lesson learnt: When you loose your key, just get a next one... :mrgreen:

There is a service offered where you show proof of owning the car, give your chassis # and boom you get a key cut and programmed to go home and use.

Since you have a wingroad it might not be so easy. You can install an alarm. Then just use the alarm to enter the car and the ignition key to start.

Second option would be to buy the complete lock set from a crash car or salvage scraped out car.

This is possible, had the combinations on some foreign used door locks changed to match my ignition key. Theres's a guy somewhere to the eastern end of chin chin rd, cunupia that does this. can't remember the road nor the name of the place. You can also check Derek's Locksmith on the eastern main road, arouca.

hey you can go to a lock smith and get all the locks to match the key from the ignition. (i went to Trincity Mall and they did it) But you would have to take out the locks for that.
Maybe if you go to a locksmith they would take it out and charge you on that basis.

I also have a GPS/Alarm system that would allow you to remote lock and unlock your car with your cellphone. With this if you ever lose your keys just have a copy hidden in the car and open it with your phone and you on the road again.

It have a fella in the mall on the Croisee. He did it for my corolla... Although my situation was a little different, it still involved removing the ignition and all the locks. Had everything back in order within a day.

In a similar situation. Only had one key and it got lost. Luckily the car is open and in the garage. Any recommendations? If I remove the door lock and take it to a locksmith will they be able to cut a key?

Yeah Aidan a key can be cut from the door lock but may not start the vehicle. What type of vehicle is it?

antlind · Postby **antlind** » November 14th, 2015, 1:40 pm

If your car has a chip embedded in the key then you have a problem on your hands. Changing the ignition switch may be the only solution.

cherrypopper · Postby **cherrypopper** » November 14th, 2015, 1:47 pm

You can get the key code and cut and reprogram the new key with a new transponder code

Thanks for the constructive input,it is a 2002 ford ranger xlt. vehicle was park down a while for some engine repairs and seems the mechanic lost the key

That's an easy vehicle, take out the ignition barrel and carry it to a locksmith, they'll make a key to work, it will unlock the doors also. Don't go busting out the steering lock to get it eh, it can be removed with some know-how
