Scion Key Replacement

Scion Key Replacement in San Jose

Scion was Toyota's youth-focused brand, and you'll still spot models like the xB, tC, xA, xD, and the later FR-S and iA on San Jose and South Bay roads. Because Scion shares much of Toyota's engineering, most Scions use the same families of keys and security electronics, which fall into a few common types.

Depending on the model and year, a Scion may use a basic transponder key, a remote head key or flip key that combines the cut blade with remote buttons, or a proximity smart key with push-to-start on certain later models. Most Scions also run an electronic immobilizer: the vehicle checks a chip in the key or fob before it will start, so a key has to be both cut to the lock and electronically programmed to the car. Capabilities vary by exact year and model, so we confirm what your specific vehicle needs before any work.

As a mobile locksmith, we come to your vehicle across San Jose and the South Bay. On-site we can typically:

• Cut and program replacement keys at your location
• Handle all-keys-lost situations where no working key remains
• Add a spare key or fob so you're not down to one
• Program transponder chips, remotes, and smart keys

Key systems differ from one Scion to the next, so we never promise a specific car sight-unseen. Call (408) 899-5558 to confirm your exact year, make, and model before service.
