All Keys Lost: What Changes?

An all keys lost service in Burbank is more involved than making a spare from an existing working key. When there is no key to copy, our technician must confirm the correct key type, verify ownership, and prepare the vehicle to accept a new key safely.

This type of car key replacement with no original key may cost more than duplicate keys because it can require extra security access, cutting information, and testing time. In most cases, our mobile locksmith no key situation service is completed on-site, so towing to a dealership is not required.

AKL may require:

  • ECU or immobilizer reset/reprogramming when the vehicle security system requires it
  • Key code retrieval for mechanical keys when there is no original key to copy
  • Additional labor and programming time compared with a simple duplicate key

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Hyundai smart key programming cost in Burbank?

Most Hyundai smart key jobs fall between $180–$350 when you have a working key (spare/duplicate), and $280–$550 for all-keys-lost situations. Pricing depends on the year, fob type (Hyundai TQ8-FOB-4F27 vs newer encrypted variants), and whether the immobilizer needs an EEPROM-level reset. Our auto locksmith in Burbank quotes a firm price upfront — typically 30–50% below Hyundai dealership rates.

Can you make a new Hyundai smart key if all keys are lost?

Yes — all-keys-lost is one of our most common Hyundai jobs. Our mobile locksmith team carries the OEM-level diagnostic equipment needed to read the immobilizer, generate a virgin fob, and pair it to your vehicle on-site anywhere in Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, or North Hollywood. No towing to the dealership required, and we never charge for diagnosis.

Which Hyundai models and years do you cover?

We program smart keys for Elantra, Tucson, Santa Fe, Sonata, Kona, Palisade, Venue, and Santa Cruz from roughly 2010 through current model year, plus most other Hyundai vehicles equipped with proximity entry. That includes hyundai digital key and smart sense proximity key programming. If you're unsure whether your Hyundai is supported, send us your VIN by text and we'll confirm compatibility within minutes.

How long does Hyundai smart key programming take on-site?

Adding a spare Hyundai fob typically takes 20–35 minutes from arrival to driving away. All-keys-lost jobs run 35–60 minutes depending on the immobilizer generation. Our technician arrives within 15–30 minutes of dispatch in the Burbank area, so most Hyundai owners are back on the road in under 90 minutes total — same-day, licensed and insured.

Do you fix the common Hyundai issue: hyundai smart key not starting or proximity detection range issues?

Yes. Hyundai smart key not starting or proximity detection range issues is a known Hyundai pattern we resolve regularly. We diagnose the root cause on-site — fob battery, antenna fault, rolling-code desync, or immobilizer corruption — then reprogram or replace the affected fob. All Hyundai smart key work is backed by our 1-year warranty on parts and programming.

Can you program a Hyundai Digital Key or do you only handle physical fobs?

We program the physical proximity smart fobs (TQ8 series) for Elantra, Tucson, Santa Fe, Sonata, and Palisade. Hyundai's Digital Key (phone-as-a-key) provisioning is handled through the Bluelink app, not a locksmith — but we make sure your physical backup fob is fully programmed and tested as a fallback, which Hyundai requires.
