Still makin' a difference in 2024, too! These cars will outlast the fob many times over! Let me add my thanks, sir, for saving me time and money.

My genius 14yr old replaced my wife's key fob. Of course after he did, she couldn't start the car. Fortunately somewhere in the back of my mind i remembered this problem... and i held on to the old fob. Had to pretty much cut the old one apart to get out the RFID without damaging it (mine looked like a gray cylinder with a clear end with copper inside). Dropped it into the new housing and everything works like a charm! Thanks for the video - Every once in a while the 50yr old man gets to be smarter than the know it all teen - Thanks for helping me win this round!!!

Just wanted to say "Thanks, you saved me roughly $75 !" The only thing I ran into unexpected (at least, when working off of MEMORY of your video) was that the little RFID chips were actually glued into the housing on both the bad and new keys. That made the process take a few minutes longer than I expected and I pretty much damaged that little plastic housing more than I intended to. However, my plan is to go back in and glue the chips in place again (just as soon as I get some glue in the house that ISN'T super-glue). My wife doubted me the entire time. So glad this info turned out to be legit !!

Thanks for the post! I followed these instructions to replace my '07 Honda Ridgeline key that had broken off. I ordered a replacement key online. At first the Honda dealer would not cut my replacement key but wanted to charge me $140 to replace with their key. After some discussion, they reluctantly cut my provided key. Saved about $125. Thanks again!

This method works just did it today! Got the key cut at True Value hardware store for $10 , aftermarket FOB off Amazon was $18 prime. , for less than $30 got a brand new key FOB , remember , you must remove the RFID chip from the old Key Fob and install the new one. Great Video, dealership wanted $147 for everything.

Thank you. I was going to pry the little RFID "cover" off but wasn't sure what the RFID chip looked like. The "cover" started to bend slightly and freaked me out thinking it may be the chip. Now I know what is what! Mine broke very similarly, so this is a life saver. Thanks!

Thank you for making this video. It helped me getting my keys back together to a new key shell!

Thanks Romans, I didn't know about that little transponder! The shell I purchased didn't come with one, so i dug the old fob shell out of the trash and super glued to together. Nice work.

Best video ever you just saved me $200

Cut a new key i bought from amazon. Transferred RFID chip and remote, and wallaaa all done. Was easier than it looked. Thanks for the vid 👍

Thank you!! I couldn't figure out why it didn't work. I needed to place the chip in the corner

cool...just what i was looking for. something showing that you can move your transponder (RF ID chip).... for some odd reason everyone else is only showing how to program the FOB...but don't say anything about if the car starts with their new key, focus is only on lock and unlock....so thank you for a complete video

I was able to remove the chip from the broken key fob and place it in the new one. I also still had the inner workings. Luckily I found the old key fob it was in the trash, I didn’t know the chip was glued to the inner cover. But all is good now and thanks.

Thanks a lot. This was really helpful.

Excellent. Stickin' it to the man!

Awesome video, thanks for posting this.

THIS WORKED!!!! YOU SIR, ARE A GOD AMONG MEN!

So if I have my original key that became detached from the fob, if I get a fob from eBay would I just put the battery from the old fob into the new one and then also replace the blank uncut key with the original key?

This is a semi-helpful video. Would have been better if you actually showed how to extract the RFID chip. However, what I found to be the bigger problem, is the part of getting the key copied. In my area, there is no one that will charge less than $25 for just the "laser" cutting of the key. Most likely they realize they are losing out on charging the programming and housing replacement. However, what I found to avoid the copying cost altogether is to just buy a new housing unit with no blank key. They make them so you can use the old key. This was great. Only cost $9 on Amazon.

I am able to use the key part to open the car door and turn on/off the car but wanted to configure a new key fob following your video. I have a quick question though. I think my key fob still has the old RFID, so can I use the old(existing) key fob and place it in the new key?

Somehow lost my RF ID CHIP. 350$ later I have a key to start the pilot. And a separate key w buttons to unlock. Can I buy just an RFID chip? Anywhere? And what about programming?

Where did you go to get the key cut? I did this same thing but I can't find a place to do it at their store for a decent price. Most of them don't understand that I don't need the key programmed when I call. Thanks

If you "just place it" you risk losing it if your key fob breaks again. Mine fell in pieces in my driveway! The RFID is about the size of two grains of long-grain rice. I would not want to have to look for that in my lawn! I would put a piece of tape over it, at least.

when i opened my 2010 honda accord key fob there was no rfid chip inside, i switched the key and remote to new casing and it worked. no carving of any kind. car opens and locks and starts. is it weird to not have it?

I'm curious as to what people have found for the price of a local locksmith to cut the blank metal key. In this day and age I'd be surprised if a locksmith would do the work at a reasonable price. Yes, I've already tried Walmart and Ace hardware. Walmart's machine didn't work, and Ace wants to sell their 89 dollar replacement key (which doesn't allow for wireless car entry). Ace refused to try and cut my ebay replacement fob/case/keyblade. I'm going to try sanding down my current keyblade and putting it into something like this: i.ebayimg.com/images/g/m~IAAOSwsN9W~jQ8/s-l500.jpg

Thanks. It would have been nice if you had started filming as you were taking apart the old key, though, especially so we could see how you got the rfid chip out. I've seen other videos in which people have had to mangle the old fob to get it out. Everyone I've seen had a lot of glue holding the chip down, which I believe is the same with my key, since I cannot just pop it out. By the way, you can buy just new key fobs in which the old key blade can still be used in the new fog, saving a whole lot of money.

The basic information start at minute 1:40

How about $180.00 dollars on long island at the honda dealer. Oh two hr with too.

Thanks

Let me ask this. Just got back from Honda. They want 150 to replace. But wouldn’t a new shell work ok. I have the key part. And the remote itself. The unit inside the shell that is. I bought a new shell but the inside wasn’t wide enough for the key itself. But if that had of been wide enough would the key then work in the car. The key part it self isn’t attached to the chip. So wouldn’t a correct new shell work ok.

The fob I bought had a slot. If you buy the wrong housing that doesn't have a slot sounds like you have options. 1. Buy a fob with a slot. 2. Superglue the chip to the car or the key. I dont recommend that as the RFID is ment to be a security control. Also you dont want to loose it because the programming is what costs a bunch of cash.
