Push-to-start and proximity fob replacement
Keyless ignition is convenient, until the fob stops working. Sometimes the fix is as simple as a fresh coin-cell battery; other times the fob needs to be replaced and programmed to your vehicle. Mr. Locksmith handles both, on-site, anywhere in the Triangle.
We serve drivers from Apex and Holly Springs to Raleigh and Durham, with the tools to pair proximity fobs to most makes and models right in your driveway.
A dead fob doesn't always mean a new fob, we'll diagnose it first.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
- My push-to-start fob died, do I need a new one?
- Often not. Many push-to-start issues are simply a dead coin-cell battery in the fob, which we can replace in seconds. If the fob itself has failed, we can program a replacement on-site.
- Can you program a proximity (smart) key on-site?
- Yes. We carry smart-key blanks and the diagnostic tools to pair proximity fobs to your vehicle right where it's parked, anywhere in the Triangle. Call (984) 381-7611 with your year, make, and model.
- How do I start my car if the fob battery is dead?
- Most push-to-start vehicles let you start the car by holding the fob against the start button or a marked spot on the steering column. Check your owner's manual, or call us and we'll walk you through it.
- Why use a locksmith instead of the dealer for a smart key?
- We come to you, so there is no tow required. Call with your year, make, and model and we will talk through your options. We also compare the locksmith and dealer routes on our blog.
