HERE TO SOLVE YOUR MITSUBISHI KEY PROBLEMS
Mitsubishi are always just that little bit ahead of the curve when it comes to the technology involved – and that includes their vehicle security systems. Here at Car Keys Solutions we always make sure we’re up to date with any new developments in that department, so if you’ve got any kind of lock, ignition or key problems you know we’ll be able to help.
ABOUT MITSUBISHI KEYS
From 1995 onwards it’s been a legal requirement for automobile manufacturers to include some kind of anti-theft system in their vehicles.
That’s when Mitsubishi started the use of transponder chips in their car keys. They’re specially coded to synchronise with a specific vehicle’s factory-installed security system, meaning that if a different key were used to open a Mitsubishi door and slide smoothly into the ignition barrel, it wouldn’t start the engine because its transponder chip had been programmed with a different code.
So there’s absolutely no point in buying a second-hand Mitsubishi key and hoping to have it reprogrammed to work with your car. You should only buy a key from either an official Mitsubishi dealership or from an automobile locksmith employing Mitsubishi technicians with the equipment and training to program your new key.
The only problems with getting a new key from a dealership are the time it’s going to take and the expense it’s going to involve – not just because the dealer has to order a key from the factory and then schedule a time to program it to synch with your car, but there’s also the cost of getting your car to that dealer if you don’t have a spare key in the first place.
So if you buy a second-hand Mitsubishi with only one key – whether from a dealer or a private individual - it’s very much to your advantage to have that key duplicated the first chance you get, because if you lose or damage your one and only key you’re in trouble. Very expensive trouble.
And that’s why we recommend you call our customer service department to arrange an appointment to have that key duplicated – either at one of our London or Milton Keynes workshops, or at your place of work … or even when you’re relacing at home in the evening.

MITSUBISHI KEY DUPLICATION
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: if you only have the one key for your Mitsubishi you run the risk of a very long, very expensive and extremely inconvenient time without your car if you lose or damage that key, and decide to wait for the dealership to organise a replacement.
So that’s why we say you’re always more than welcome to visit one of our London and Milton Keynes workshops, where we’ll create and program a duplicate key for you, or arrange an appointment when one of our expert technicians will be with you at the time that suits you best.
MITSUBISHI KEY REPROGRAMMING
It shouldn’t happen, of course, but it does. Granted, it doesn’t happen often, but should your car key suddenly get out of synch with your Mitsubishi you’ll only be left stranded by the roadside for less than an hour after you’ve called our customer service department. That’s when one of our well-equipped mobile team reaches you and starts reprogramming that out-of-synch key to get you back on your way again as soon as possible.
OPENING YOUR MITSUBISHI DOOR
Locked out of your car? Keys locked in there? No worries – our mobile technicians have the equipment and expertise to open up your door in seconds, without causing any damage or leaving any marks.
MITSUBISHI KEY REPAIR
A broken key doesn’t always mean that you need to buy a new one. Sometimes that key just needs a bit of TLC, and we’re the right professionals to turn to get it done. We have all the right replacement Mitsubishi key components, and our technicians use the latest tech to repair your key so it’s as good as new – if not better!
MITSUBISHI DOOR LOCK / IGNITION BARREL REPAIR
It can happen that your Mitsubishi door lock barrel can develop a fault – and the same could be said about your ignition barrel. It might just be a small problem in the barrel, or it might be a bigger problem if your key blade snaps off, leaving you unable to use that door or even start your car.
Fortunately our skilled technicians have a great deal of experience both in safely removing broken key blades from barrels and in repairing and replacing those locks – and recreating and reprogramming that broken key as well.
HOW MITSUBISHI KEYS WORK
Every new Mitsubishi key contains a transponder chip that is programmed to respond to the factory-installed security system which looks for a unique code in the chip. If that code doesn’t match the one the security system is expecting, then the engine simply won’t start, no matter how well that key fitted into the door lock and ignition barrel.
So that’s why we have the right equipment on hand to make sure your existing key can be reprogrammed the instant it drops out of synchronisation with your car, and your brand new key can be programmed to match the code your Mitsubishi’s vehicle security system is looking for when you start your engine.
