Transponder Chip Key Bypass How To For Any Car!

If you only have 1 key to your car or don't want to invest in a locksmith making valid transponder keys and just want metal keys, Here's how to do it the fast and easy way.

[@ricglass2794]

Good idea, I've done this and it works. I also had a pass key ($10) on the same ring as the chip key and it also works. I leave the pass key on the ring and remove it for the kids to get in boot etc when I need to, they cant start the car with pass key this way but after taking out transponder and gluing it to steering column, THEY ALL WORK ALL THE TIME. Well done

[@philipmcclellan4989]

Your video saved me a whole boat load of cash. I went to start my 2001 Ford Ranger and the end of the cylinder broke off inside the ignition switch and my truck dead in the parking lot. I was able to purchase a new ignition at my local NAPA store but they were not able to give me one with a transponder key. However the ignition switch fit and I was able to turn on all the electrical but not start my truck. After watching your video I tried to use my original key by placing it as close to the ignition switch as I could and turning the new key to try and start the engine. IT WORKED ! I did however have to take the plastic cover off the underside of the steering wheel. 3 phillips screws, less than a minute to remove in order to get the transponder key close enough. A million thanks !

[@lvd2001]

Thank You - You save me heaps - instead of buying a new programmed key from dealer at $150 - it Cost me only $6.00 blank from ebay and $10 labour cost for cutting the blank. ow my new key works like a charm.

[@leebaker8195]

This is a very good video and money saver. You will always have those who looks for what they perceive to be a deceptive explanation. But whether it is a true by-pass or not doesn't matter at all as long as it works and saves money. Yes, the chip is still needed or there will be no communication between the key and the car. So I will encourage all to be very careful to not lose the chip. Make sure it is very secured in the key shroud area with a very good glue or tape. If you lose this chip, you will pay for it. Excellent video. Oh by the way, Home Depot makes the chip keys for about a third the price of the ford dealers.

[@morecowbell9832]

Thanks for talking about the door in the Ford-style key, that was a handy bit of info. I took the transponder out of my Mazda key by pulling the door straight out. The door is a long piece of plastic that extends into the key body and inside the plastic housing was a tube-shaped transponder. It looked like the chip our vet put into our dog. I found that the transponder can't be too close and can't be too far away from the lock cylinder. If it was touching the lock cylinder in the steering column, it would not work. So I put it in a small length of plastic refrigerator ice-maker tubing and melted the ends to seal it in there, and zip-tied the tubing to the lock cylinder. The transponder hangs down and out of the way. I also had to make sure the transponder was out of the way of the shifter linkage before putting the housing back together.

[@SuicideSlushie]

This is a much more elegant solution than what I did. I attached the entire key to the transponder ring as I didnt want to risk breaking the chip inside the key

Worked for my 2003 Ford Taurus w/ factory "S" coded key. !!! Note: Chip is in lower right corner as looking at Ford logo and set in only 1/8" from corner. Avoid cutting here !!! From right edge of logo across top (just chop off loop) and all left side you can cut deeply to the key with no damage to chip. Had to pry against key and peel back with pliers to remove factory cover and chip. After several tries I found placing chip at 1 o'clock position AGAINST the black ring which energizes / reads the chip worked. Sealed chip into duct tape and held it there. Thanks Lessco, this saved me $70.

[@billb.4901]

Another time this might be useful is in a situation where the key won't turn the cylinder on the lock. Ignition switch replacement and reprogramming are a little pricey. If you took out the transponder, you could leave the key in the ignition rather than replace, and when you want to drive just attach the transponder near the switch. You could make some type of pocket and mount it near the switch, into which you could slide the transponder.

[@HILUXCHAINSAW]

Some people are taking the title a little too literally. I did what the video said and now I can start my Hilux with 3 keys instead of only the one key that HAD the transponder in it. It gives me peace of mind knowing if I loose one key I can still start the truck with one of the others.

[@Discreetsecuritysolutions]

You should forget that peace of mind - now anyone with a good screwdriver can steal your truck. You've saved £40, but it could cost you your entire truck- well done.

[@jefris]

well anyone with good screwdriver can come in to your house? Is that what you are saying? Does your house key have transponder? You people are full of bs. Back in the days, just flashing led light on the dashboard and the club on the steering wheel worked. What else do you need to get ripped off by the car makers?

[@sparky6086]

@@Discreetsecuritysolutions Depends on how old the car is & where the the person lives. In many areas, cars were safe for decades without chip keys. I live in a sparsely populated area with very little crime, and no one would want to steal my beat up 16 year old cargo van anyway, so this solution is perfect for me

[@mdmeadmdmead]

Wow, amazing some of the comments! Personally, I think this info is worthwhile. I've got an older beater car worth maybe a grand and minimum coverage on it. Not too worried about it getting stolen. What I do want is another key, without paying more than a couple of bucks for it. If this gets me there, I win.

[@trevorsams7608]

I have a European Nissan Patrol 4X4 similar to a Landcruiser. I damaged one key and had the problem that I could not get another one coded to match the other one good key I had where I live in the Caribbean. I just removed the steering column cover and zip tied the good key to the barrel. No risk of damage to the glass encapsulated RFID (Chip) by trying to extract it from the key plastic and yes these often come in a glass vial, real easy to break. There is no messing with the wiring. Took a little time to get it positioned right. Its been there now for nearly three years and my vehicle goes off road shaking things up real well. Purchased a couple of regular keys to have cut with aftermarket keyfob plips to operate the door locks and just signed them onto the system, It may not work for all cars, it depends on the sensitivity of the receiver on the lock barrel but just try a few positions keeping the head of the key as close to the key end of the barrel as possible and rotate the key a few times, checking at which point it will start. Took me about 1 minute.

[@trombonemikey]

Very impressed with the information. I bought my ford Explorer second hand but was never told how to open the door with the numbers on the door. I found out how to lock it accidently.

[@joeyfitzpatrick6906]

If you want to find you "Door Code" for your explorer, You need to locate your GEM(General Electric Module). Not sure what year your explorer is, but most explorer GEM modules are mounted on the back of your fuse block(Under Dash fuse block just left of the steering column) On the GEM module, there will be a Label/Sticker with lots of numbers and info.(Part #'s and Serial #'s) There will be 5 numbers larger than the rest. This number is your Master Door Code. This number is unique to the GEM itself and can not be changed.(You can add extra codes though. Read how in your owners manual) Sometimes you can use a mirror to see the number with out removing the fuse panel. To lock the doors you simply push both of the right side buttons at the same time(7/8 & 9/0) quickly press the buttons again to set your alarm(if it is equipt with one). to unlock- enter your code. If you want to open the other doors too, press 3/4 after you enter code(on some models it is not 3/4, its the last number of your code- after code is entered just press the last # again)

[@MSG685]

I had an 03 merc sable. the door code was printed on the the component that was located above the brake peddle under the dash. I just held my phone down there by the break and took a couple pictures up into my dash . I got a picture of it with the first shot. easy pesy.

[@dedios03]

​you must be from the manufacturer 😂

[@GlobalSecularism]

In order to complete the bypass, the transponder will need to be placed permanently onto the ignition keyhole. This way, any key will work since the antitheft system will always recongnise the transponder (permanently attached).

[@ayshortier]

Good idea. I like that better. I almost lost my key because the ring broke, and I prefer securing the chip.

For insurance purposes you probably shouldn’t do that

[@JCisJD]

Im not sure if im missing something here but if this is just about only having one transponder key left why not just hide the key in the dash/ close to the ignition and just get a spare , none transponder, key cut ? If you sell the car then you can sell it with a complete key. What is all the fuss with cutting the chip out ?

[@Lesscoelectronics]

reliability is why I do it

[@JCisJD]

Lessco Electronics Cheers :)

[@EarlGuyton425]

JCisJD That's how I do it. I put the 3 dollar re cut key and hold the transponder key next to it and start my truck then stick the transponder key back under my dash which is the same thing but you aren't leaving the chip exposed for another person to take. Which is better because what if your car was ever towed and some chicken shit wrecker driver takes his thumb nail and takes that chip off the ignition ring??? Youre up chit creek.

[@Lesscoelectronics]

The reason why is reliability, No key taped under a dash will stay there perfect for long, sooner or later trouble will strike.

I’ve done this to my 2007 Focus, I had to use a razor to shave down the plastic around key and found the chip,I removed the cover from the steering column and once I did that I put the chip near the ignition to find the right spot for it to read it, I put the key in and turned it to start the car each time,every time you move the chip to another spot you have to remove key and put it back in again or it won’t read it, after a trying a few times I found the correct spot to put it, I used gorilla glue to put it on just above the ignition. Did this a few weeks ago and it still reads it and I use a key without a chip.

[@307rekordzsouthweztrydazcrew]

daammnn..this actually worked... i finally got my car started after 5 days with this process..

[@JayCras]

Thanks for a great video. These idiotic transponder keys are sad excuses to charge insane prices for duplicate keys. A "key" is still a key and frankly that is all the security I've had for every car I've owned up until I bought an RX-8. I can't believe people ever accepted the concept of paying hundreds of bucks for a spare key! More computer crap = more things to fail. BTW I just looked at the insane turn on your car 3 times open and close the door over and over while you lock and unlock the drivers door thing. You guys know that some programmer wrote this code for laughs. Right? think the marketing folks who came up with the hundreds of dollars spare key nonsensee are laughing themselves sick when they go to the bank with your money. Personally for added security I took the duplicate key money and used it to put in a useful car alarm system.

[@jasonsuthern6326]

I'm a locksmith and the reason why we don't cut them is because the cheap Chinese Keys are sent with the wrong program chip. Also the keys don't sit right on the machines. Last some of these eBay, Amazon specials have Alloy Metal which mess up our cutter wheels that cost $300 plus. Also most locksmith shops are mom and pop and depend on business like this to stay afloat. All because we care to give you a good product. We also take on going car education to service our customers.

[@eksine]

this is incorrect. I was able to go to walmart and they told me only their transponder keys work for their programmer, WRONG. I gave them 4 keys bought from ebay, first one didn't cut right so I went to 2 other walmarts, one walmart didn't even have the keys to their key display but the 3rd walmart all 3 ebay keys were cut and programmed and they did work in the car, the cut's were not good on 2 of them because it was a copy from a copy, no original key was available but my other honda key was original and it was cut and programmed perfectly. so your information is wrong

[@jasonsuthern6326]

+eksine They use an Ilco brand programmer cloner. If you have an older Honda like early 2000 plus. Then most cloner equipment like that will clone what you brought in which is a TP05. Newer Hondas and Dodge etc. with remote heads don't work half the time because these eBay companies sell customers the wrong chips to add keys to vehicles with computers that have to be connected. Which are newer 2008 and up.

[@medina5k]

you might also want to add, as an annotation, that if the transponder is damaged at any point during this removal the cost of repair is anywhere from $500-1200 to reprogram the module on the vehicle that stores which transponder is valid. This is in addition to not being able to start your car too.... as a locksmith of 20 years, i can't really approve of doing this... but this WILL work. and as for using another key that has a transponder on a lock that has this 'bypass'.... each transponder sends what is basically a password (16-32 digit hexadecimal password) to the computer that controls either the starter, or the fuel pump. if you have two keys in proximity of the antennae under the ignition cap the car won't know which password to verify. regarding how far the transponder has to be to be picked up by antennae? from the keyhole itself.... about the size of a soft ball... that is about how big the magnetic field is in these transponder keys that go into an ignition. the field is much much larger in cars that have a 'Push to start' button

Thanks for making it easier for people to steal cars. The next locksmith that that has to make and program a key will not appreciate your little tip.

So give the guy a break. No I do not know him, and have never had any correspondence with him. If it does the job, get it, if it doesn't, then don't buy it. This is easy stuff here.

[@googleguest4837]

Luvstruck ok. So why cant i start my grand caravan with a door key and holding the chip key on the ignition column ? It only starts for 3 seconds.

[@goose14]

I appreciate the video and idea of what to do however I decided not to butcher the key tape it on which again was a great idea. I had changed the lock cylinder and the old key is now just for the doors basically even though it has the chip in it. So then I thought what if I just leave it on the key chain and hold next to the new in chipped key and you were right it does read it or trick the car into thinking its being used and Ta da it is just fine. So thanks again for ideas and help!!! Steve

[@chukconiglio2519]

so now when ya lose that key ,,,you have lost both keys,?

My ford truck will not start its been back to the dealer 3 times they have changed the key,the reader ,the gauge cluster .can you make my truck so I can use an old school key no computer shit at all ?

[@Lesscoelectronics]

Barry Morris no, but this is as close as you can get though

[@barrymorris5028]

I have two keys but they will not work .do you have any ideas on what I can do ?

[@Lesscoelectronics]

Id call a local locksmith with the scan tool software

Thanks for your help ,but the dealership can't make it work I guess I will just take it out and put in an old school motor something that I can make run.

[@MovieMike1969]

I don't know about other countries, but in New Zealand, insurance companies give you a substantial discount for having an immobilizer (as it makes your car theft proof/resistant). To bypass the immobilizer (and not tell your insurance provider), would be classed as fraud and you don't want to mess with your insurance company.

[@janetbowersock4360]

I have a question. Sorry if it sounds dumb. i just want to see if it works. If I make a spare key for my truck and insert the spare key in the ignition, will it start? Keep in mind, I will make sure the original key is right next to the spare key. The original key will have the transponder inside it still. I just want to make sure it works before I take out the transponder?

[@ysman3]

Now I can steal your car with a screwdriver

[@goldenboy5500]

just don't tell your insurance company because they will void your fire & theft also if your buying from let's say a Toyota used car dealer insist on a spare chip key or you can go to walmart and for less than 40 bucks have a key cut & programed If you loose or damage that tiny chip it will costs hundreds to get a new key and program the whole security system

[@Discreetsecuritysolutions]

Absolutely right - this invalidates your theft insurance in the same way as if you left the key in the glove box. It's a stupid "bypass" only done by unscrupulous locksmiths and witless car owners.

[@TheWorldgonecrazy]

Although to be fair criminals know they have these transponder keys,but they will not know you have done this to you vehicle so car owners are still safe.

[@StevenRotelli]

It's actually plastic/fibreglass lead would insulate the rfid.

[@kylanx7475]

I did this because I only had 1 key and I needed a bypass for a free remote start I got, I works for my key and the remote start great, however it was extremely sensitive to the position of the chip down to millimeters where the car wouldn't start, rn I have it taped exactly on the ignition barrel at the cranking mark, If anyone knows why that is or what I could do to possibly help it, Its a 2004 honda accord if that helps

[@r.broderick2222]

Doesn't this also trick the car into thinking that you have left the key in the car? Wont this screw with security systems and engine mobilizers or even not allowing you to lock your car as many cars will not arm or allow locking if the key is in the ignition? (Or in this case, transponder?) You could ruin an expensive key if not careful.. I'd recommend you have a cheap key made, and tape it in the approximate area of the cylinder and see what affects leaving that key / transponder would be BEFORE hacking a nice, expensive key.

[@Jacksonjames4]

+Raymond Broderick no. has nothing to do with security. all it does is allow the car to start. once running, doesn't matter where it is.

[@TheMakyato]

+jack you are so wrong in many cars not older than 10 years you may have problem if the key is in the car or in proximity ( less or more 10 feet) you cant lock your doors (from outside) if the key is in the car and if nowbody is in the car after 5 min the alarm is start your black box will see always the presence of the key this may vary from car to car optional you buy and country in my outlander 2008 if you have the parasolar open you could not lock the dors an many other things

[@Jacksonjames4]

+TheMakyato no, actually im not wrong at all. We weren't talking about proximity keys. These are different. The instance the vehicle starts, it stops communicating. Prox Keys communicate differently.

[@TheMakyato]

+jack i agree that is totally different but this is not bypassing and it can have security and insurance issue even if is practically very small risk the insurance company will use this against you this is maybe out off topic but many machinery/equipment use same type of key and the risk is much higher i have done this and i will doit again if necessary

this really does work thank you so very much

[@kerimk2306]

How did you manage to open up the key? My spare Peugeot 107 key has no buttons. This spare key has no screws to unscrew unfortunately. I'm trying to open up the case by using a prying tool (used for IT) that looks like a guitar chip), but I can only do that 'temporarily'. Like it doesn't want to open up completely. It closes back right when I try to slide all the way around the key. Do you have tips for me?

[@tonytone2239]

thats not a bypass, what youre doing its just a relocation of the transponder DUH!

[@richardshort3914]

Thank you. I wish I'd seen this earlier.

[@epicbros592]

i admire your knowledge. I am an amateur, but I am learning because 60$ + for some 5 minute repairs are ridiculous! the ignition lock broke on the 05 dodge caravan and i need to replace with a new lock with a new computerized key. I watched a video on how to remove and replace the cyclinder , but I am confused with this lock key sensor and the computer read. HELP

[@bosschichi]

Problem with having it always need the key barrel is it will disengage an immobiliser if you have one and always be sending a signal to the car that it is ready to start, therefore draining your battery. This all round is a bad idea. However, a useful video if you want to know what the key is all about and what to look for when changing one key fob to another e.g. from a straight key to a flip out key (flip out keys are useful in saving pocket room).

[@denversecurity63]

Yep, as a locksmith that programs these transponder cars, let me first say that this is a dumb idea for security reasons and second you don't have to cut your key up unless you just don't have a life. you can just drop the shroud and tape a key to the reader ring. Then it will be even easier to steal your car. Or, why not put a sign on your car that reads "Please Steal Me" !!!!!!!!!!!

[@richb7414]

No different than owning a 1995 or so older vehicle that has no anti-theft at all!

[@c0gsinc0gs]

Cars didn't have these transponders for most of my driving life and I never had a car stolen. Maybe if I lived in a high crime area I'd fell differently but I just lost a key (and a fob) and all I see these things as is a way for car manufacturers to soak you for a hundred or more bucks for something you used to be able to get for a couple of bucks at any hardware store. Just a scam.

[@abayer1000]

c0gsinc0gs I agree this should be a option it is a bigger pain than it is worth

[@jefris]

This is a bs. The only thing that can convince me is if your your house key has transponder. Transponder key is a way to rip people off just like the engine light in your car. Not always need to be concerned. Back to basic people where there's no transponder and bullshit.

[@TotoGuy-Original]

thats not really a bypass though is it. its just a bodge job! and also would invalidate your insurance if the car was stolen. i could have made this video 30 seconds long

[@MarcusTheDrummer]

Wont that make the car think the key is in the vehicle and wont lock the doors? Because my car wont let the doors lock if it detects the key in in the car, to prevent locking your keys in the car.

There should be after market company’s to buy the key from. Then go to your local dodge dealer give them proof of owner ship and they have to give you a vehicle PIN number 4 digit code. Find a shop with a scanner capable of programming a key. You should get out of this for 200 bucks. Dodges are super easy.

The hole size in the key is important. The size of the hole in the key is critical. (RE: GM recall of ignition problems.)

[@rodneyreed5331]

I have serious doubts as to whether this will work. here is why. I have both of my keys on the same keyring. I have accidentally tried to start the car a couple of times with the Door ONlY ( non transponder ) key. it will not start the car. the car will crank over but not fire the engine. so the close proximity information you give doesnt work with my Nissan Murano, the keys are right beside each other and the transponder key is not more than one inch away from the ignition sensor and it will not start the car..

[@Jackcc5]

i can see the point for doing this but isn't it better to not do it. I mean that makes your car easyer to steal that's why the Vehicle anti theft system was created. i would much rather pay the money and get another key and have the anti theft system working then not.

[@ponybrony4886]

$500.00 + to get another one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@elslockmithservices]

Pony Brony Only if your car is a Saab might cost you that much. That is the only car that I think would cost that much for a duplicate. Not even a Ferrari or VW, Mercedes They might cost 95.00 just for a plane key that has chip + a full Insurance Liability would not cover any of a stolen car with an existed so call "by pass" after all, they were the ones to requested the dealers and anti-theft system since some of their customer were scamming insurance by robing themselves, if you have a bad remote start installation on a anti-theft, your insurance will denied any coverage since you gave up the only secure to a car thieve.

[@elslockmithservices]

***** I'm wrong about what? Those keys without a chip would go for around 50.00 in our shop. That's a pretty fair price. The insurance companies do investigations specifically to find out whether there was a bypass, an after market remote starter, or an immobilizer turned off. For cars of course only that have chips and have full coverage insurance.

[@mozzmann]

***** Well lets see Original Registration, Chassis and VIN Number's on your insurance paper's etc. Oh and an engraved placard attached to the vehicle in a spot that only I know about. Why you would want to bypass in built security is beyond me.

[@TheBlueSmirk]

mozzmann Saves a lot of hasstle programming chips for new keys. I have a Honda Civic and can't connect to my ecu to program the key so this is a good way to do it.

[@MrRockinBull]

This is not bypassing the "Transponder Chip" as ur video suggest. Ur just taking the chip out of the key and it's not a bypass at all, u still have to use the Transponder Chip. A bypass would be being able to make the car run "without" the chip at all ......To alter the security system!!!

[@Cotronixco]

He said it's a transponder KEY bypass. He didn't say it's a transponder bypass. Read.

[@mikeyd19841]

Just tape or glue the transponder on the steering column are where you put in the key and then if you lose that key with transponder on it it will be cheap to replace! That is what i would do it makes more sense. Make a video and try this! That would be a cool ass video! Thanks

[@ProfEd12]

In Colorado at least, locksmiths cannot make later model Subaru keys, I phoned a number in the Front Range whose web and yellow pages piously declared that they could show up at the site and make a key for ANY car any model. Tell them it's a 2014 Subaru and after embarrassed silence they will admit that they cannot deal with it. You will need to have your car towed to a Subaru Dealer---good luck if you are stuck on a weekend or in the back country. After getting a tow that costs a fortune, you next look forward to paying Subaru over $400 for a key that might cost $10 to make. Thus, I can see the attraction of having a backup system in which a lost key doesn't confiscate your whole paycheck.
