How We Fix Mitsubishi Keys And Locks

We follow a straightforward, transparent process for Mitsubishi key work, using dealer-level diagnostics and non-destructive techniques wherever possible.

1. Diagnosis On-Site
   • Our technicians use OBD2 diagnostics and manufacturer-level software to read immobiliser/ECU status and key registration data.
2. Non-Destructive Entry And Recovery
   • If you’re locked out, we attempt non-destructive entry first (specialist long-reach tools, lock picks, and shielded wedge techniques). We only use destructive methods if unavoidable and will always discuss options before proceeding.
3. Key Cutting And Programming
   • For blade keys we use precision laser key cutters for exact duplicates. For transponder and smart keys we perform EEPROM reads and OBD2 or dealer-level programming to register new keys to the car’s immobiliser.
4. Final Checks And Warranty
   • Every replacement or programmed key is test-driven for function (start, locking, alarm) before we leave. We provide a warranty on workmanship and keys where applicable.

We carry the specific tools and diagnostic equipment needed for modern Mitsubishi systems: laser key cutting machines, transponder writers, OBD2 programming tools, EEPROM programmers and dealer-level diagnostic suites. Our technicians are trained on current 2024/2025 Mitsubishi models and immobiliser technologies.

How Much Does Mitsubishi Key Work Cost?

We don’t publish fixed prices because each Mitsubishi job depends on vehicle model, key type (basic blade, transponder, smart/proximity), and the work required. Cost factors include:

• Make, model and year of the Mitsubishi (e.g., Outlander PHEV vs older Lancer)
• Whether the original key is available
• Type of key/fob required (laser cut, proximity, smart key)
• Whether OBD2 or EEPROM work is needed
• Time of call (standard hours vs urgent after-hours)
