Programming is done with current diagnostic software so nothing in the module gets left half written. Doing car lockout service right the first time is cheaper for everyone involved. We use professional cutting equipment and manufacturer-matched blanks rather than soft aftermarket blanks. Every key leaves our hands tested twice, once at the door and once at the ignition. Careful car lockout service protects the lock, the column, and the electronics that sit behind them. If something we programmed misbehaves later, you call (925) 590-1770 and we come back to it.
