We Provide Secure Locksmith Services
Professional car locksmith services across Oahu. From car key replacement to key fob replacement – see what we can offer.
Step 1: We Diagnose the Key First
Before replacing the ignition, we always check the car key first. Many ignition problems are caused by a worn, bent, damaged, or poorly cut key — not the ignition cylinder itself. However, if the worn key has been used for too long, it may already have damaged the ignition lock.
For metal keys, we check blade wear, cuts, and alignment.
For transponder keys, remote head keys, and smart keys, we verify that the key is working correctly with the vehicle.
If the key is the problem, the repair may be as simple as cutting a new mechanical key or programming a new transponder key. If the ignition still does not turn with a proper key, we inspect the ignition cylinder.
Step 2: Remove and Inspect the Ignition Cylinder
If the ignition lock is already damaged, stuck, or clearly worn, we remove and inspect the ignition cylinder. At this stage, we check the internal wafers, housing, lock movement, and key alignment to decide whether the ignition can be rebuilt or must be replaced.
We explain the issue clearly and recommend the most reliable and cost-effective ignition repair option for your vehicle.
Step 3: Repair or Replace with High-Quality Parts
Depending on the condition of the ignition, we will either:
Rebuild the existing ignition cylinder
Replace it with a new OEM or aftermarket ignition lock cylinder
Recode the ignition to match your key when possible
Cut and program new keys if needed
If your original keys are worn and caused the ignition failure, we strongly recommend making a fresh set of keys during the repair. Ignition replacements completed with new keys come with our 12-month warranty
