I can programme keys for these on older and newer vehicles from the immo box and a key number.

Regards Ben.

so what you do is clone the original key?

ben boluski · May 21st, 2009, 20:33

I do not clone these as these are not cloneble. I programme them new transponders direct from the immo box which i put into my keys.

These are not original keys but they do not come away from the blades like the original ones.

but the new key you do must be an absolute identical copy ( electronicaly) to work .. does it read data from the old one and put it in the new one?

ben boluski · May 21st, 2009, 20:49

The data i get from the immo box and put it onto a new transponder chip. I put into the new key that i cut.

These keys will start the engine otherwise i would not be in business.

I just do not do remote keys as these need dealer diagnostics to programme.

I only require the immo box and key number along with proof of ownership to do these keys.

Key numbers are only valid as long as the locks have not been changed.

i see , so you need the immobiliser box from the car ... as in the 850 and v70 etc
Thats not possible in 1999 onwards volvos ( except for old C70 ) though as they dont have a separate immobilser it is integrated into the car systems ..

Thats right but on a lost key situation i can get somone on the road on the same day and without recovery. Is better and cheaper than the dealers.

Hopefully i will have the diagnostics to programme the ones from Year 2000 within the next few months.

Regards Ben.

Were they able to deactivate the lost key? I also paid for a new key fob, but they said that the lost key can't be deactivated. Any suggestions?

the lost keys CAN be and should be erased as part of the job !
