All I had to do was put a chip, back in the remote, but your advice, gave me the hint, and stopped me, from walking the entire week. Plus, you just taught us the coolest trick. Big fat thanks!
What if you don't have the original key only the spare? I have a 2003 chrysler town and country my ignition key got lost I can't afford dealership prices and I can't get my van to move
It's a workaround from getting multiple transponders. Still an issue if the transponder falls of for whatever reason. Some cars you can bypass by putting a resistor in line.
My man... Your birthday should be a Holiday. Tip broke off my truck's key so I made a copy but it opens the doors and tailgate without a problem but won't turn in the ignition. I though it was a lock cylinder problem until I read about chips in the keys. Luckly I still have the brokem key, so I was thinking of cutting broken key off at the plastic part and then glueing plastic to the copy I made. Wasn't sure if it was gonna work then came across your video. You just gave me hope, that's if it's not the lock cylinder. My truck's battery is dead at the moment, do you know if that will affect anything as far as reading the chip? By the way, to the ones worried about it not being a bypass... If it works, who cares.
Not a bypass. You removed the chip from the key and placed it by the antenna ring. Yes this can be done but if the chip falls out, you better hope you can find it lol. Sad but many people do indeed do this to avoid transponder keys. You have to be sure that the chip cannot fall out though. If it does fall out you will have to have to have another chipped programmed which can cost a couple of hundred bucks. In order to program you have to do a computer hook up to create a new chipped key.
Do you have to remove chip from key, or could you just secure key around the ignition switch? I like your ideal, but would rather not remove from key, old key doesn't have key fob, new key does. This is used 2010 Nissan Titan, buying keys from Amazon and programming the fob is easy on a Titan, but starting vehicle requires programmed key, that deal told me $170 each.
Someone else posted you will need to test. Some ignitions are particular about the location of the chip and some just need to be near the ignition. Most unlocking remotes can be programmed in the car, but have nothing to do with starting the car.
Good tip but just be aware if you try to start it with a second chipped key , it probably wont start because it will detect two microchips and will think someones trying to steal the car
@@mikechanic184 Technically a "second" chipped key should be the same as the original key which you showed worked fine. If the second key wasn't identical to the original it simply wouldn't work? 🤔
@@KevinHallSurfing Despite having the same frequency and whatnot; the two chips won't be synchronized and may even interfere directly with each other. Probably varies by brand
Mostly the chip has to be right on the money where the key head sits in the on or off position like Mike did. Placing it under the dash is usually to far away. Easy to test just get a spare key cut ( which will unlock doors) and use it to crank the ignition with your chipped key close by and see what happens.
You are not bypassing the transponder you are only relocating it. All these videos claim this. The real deal is to fool the electronics without a transponder chip or bypass all of the electronics. This I doubtbyou could do as my bet is the computer has to see an ok from the transponder in multiple parts if its overall program
I have a 2010 Nissan Qashqai, took the ignition barrel fully apart(broke a filer end in. Due to difficult key remove had to file the inside) I have disconnected the battery so my airbag wont go off. Anyway, since I have built all together, central locking stopped working not even the inside switch and vehicle wont turn over not even dash lights are on when turning the key ?!?

Sydney Australia. Only have one key from dealer when I bought it. The local Subaru dealer wanted KEY $417.85 CUT: $44 CODING: $88 plus $170 to "read" the ECU. That's AUD $ 719 all up. What a joke.

I am not using my ignition i had a seprate one someone installed so i used that one and to open the doors i use oribibal keys was dtivibig it a while andvall of the sudden the hazards start flashing and car cuts out
This video is super old now but im going to try this as well as im having the same issues with my 2003 but the best part of the video is how many GROWN adults dont listen to what you said or typed in the comments and they all just keep saying the same thing lol. "This is not a bypass. Your car will be stolen. " lol WHO CARES!? Im doing the same thing. The car is 21 years old. They steal it ill just report it stolen and take my losses but ill enjoy it while it lasts
Car's not likely to be stolen as no one will know. Still not a bypass, a hack or workaround is a better description. Like saying leaving the door unlocked is a "bypass" to unlocking the door.
Ok my 05 altima ser has 1 chipped key. Currently the steering wheel is locked and key will not turn either. I have no one to help with this so im about to try this. Wish me luck cause if it dont work i do not have 300 for a new key.
I don't have this car anymore but I think if you applied pressure to the steering wheel while trying to start the car it should disengage the steering lock
STUPID QUESTION: Does the transponder not need a battery to send a signal to the ring? I have this exact problem with a 1997 Mercedes S500 - but the transponder is housed inside the FOB that has a battery. Thanks
Okay have a situation where the chip came out of my key and i was only given one key for the car when I bought it , I have the key but the chip is missing and now the car will not start is there anyway I can replace the chip ?
@@mikechanic184 yes I was I called the dealership they wanted 350 because they won’t just give you a new chip called locksmith and he was 250$ but he came out and cut and programmed within minutes put the new key in a she started right up thanks so much for the video I thought the issue was something way worse honestly
I have very bad news for you. Not sure what you drive but your car is just as easy to steal as his car, in most cases no expensive equipment required. If someone will break into his or into your car they 100% will have very inexpensive tools in their pocket to start and drive it away. Transponder keys made to suck money out of dumb owners, not to protect car. Say thanks to your friendly dealer.
So basically you just made your car very easy to steal , good work , would you rather spend 80 bucks or buy a new car , at least you keep auto thieves working , without you they would have nothing to do.
Wonder if it would work on key fob on a Mazda 6. But I wouldnt know what the chip looked li and I dont want to F up the good key. Gives me an idea though. Wonder if you held the key fob near the ignition then inserted the unprogrammed transponder key if it would start it? Then maybe it will program it.
All I had to do was put a chip, back in the remote, but your advice, gave me the hint, and stopped me, from walking the entire week. Plus, you just taught us the coolest trick. Big fat thanks!
No problem man glad you enjoyed it
Wat if don’t have key wit chip
Off topic, but your, use of commas, left my mind, in this, strange state, of suspenseful speaking, for just about, two straight, hours.
Very clean job! Love the discreet placement. Other videos show the transponder chip visibly glued! this is the best method thus far. Thank you!
Now, if I could just get that damn TPS light to go off
What if you don't have the original key only the spare? I have a 2003 chrysler town and country my ignition key got lost I can't afford dealership prices and I can't get my van to move

Tyo
Will any chip work for that meaning can I have any Nissan key and take the chip out and do that
As long as it's the chip that's programmed for the ignition it should work out fine for you.

Just moving around and try to start it eventually it will go
Did it ended up working for you?

Not a bypass just using same chip for any key

The second key isnt programmed yet so it isnt sending out any information.
So you cleverly defeated the anti-theft function of the key chip.
To be fair, who would expect a modern car to not have electronic protection, and these days they steal the key anyway.
I just taped my chipped key underneath my dash. Then I just get cut copies for cheap.
Works the same. I'm glad someone else out there is being cheap too.

I guess you just hope the chip doesn't fall out after a while.
Can you explain why it works wen chip is placed next to antenna and not Wen in key it's not that far away am aving trouble with my car that's bin stud a few years
does the transponder chip have to be the same chip that comes with the original key or can it be a chip from any car key?
It has to be the transponder chip for your car. Any other transponder microchip would be for that specific car that the key came from.
Would have to be programmed for that ECU.
He is just using one chip for multiple keys.
