Car Key & Immobilizer Programming in Toronto

Lost your only key, need a spare, or dealing with an immobilizer that will not let the car start? DashLabz programs keys and immobilizer systems for drivers and shops across Toronto and the GTA, with a focus on modern European vehicles including BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

Key programming services

Spare and replacement keys

Adding a spare key now is far cheaper and easier than an all-keys-lost job later. We program new keys and remotes to your vehicle.

All keys lost

Lost every key? We can usually program a new key to the vehicle, even with no working key available.

Smart keys and proximity keys

We program keyless-entry and push-to-start smart keys, including remote functions.

Immobilizer programming

An immobilizer fault, a replaced ECU or a damaged immobilizer module can prevent the engine from starting even with the right key. We diagnose immobilizer problems and program or synchronize the immobilizer, engine computer and keys so the car starts reliably.

BMW and Mercedes-Benz key programming

Many European keys are tied closely to the car’s modules. We work with BMW and Mercedes-Benz key systems regularly and can often handle jobs other shops send to the dealer.

What to bring

Your vehicle and any working keys you still have. For 2021 and newer vehicles, please also bring proof of ownership and photo ID.

Frequently asked questions

Can you program a key if I lost all my keys?

Usually, yes. Call us with your year, make, model and VIN so we can confirm the method for your vehicle.

Do you need proof of ownership?

For 2021 and newer vehicles, yes. We need proof of ownership and photo ID before programming keys or immobilizers.

My car will not start after an ECU replacement. Can you help?

Yes. This is usually an immobilizer mismatch, and we can match the new module to your vehicle and keys.
