Lost my keys please help!

[Rld003]

I lost both sets of keys to my 2007 Yukon, I'm heading to the dealer tomorrow to get a new key cut, do I need to do any thing special or should the key work normal.

The dealer will know what kind of key to supply to you. I'd get a key fob too.

 

[Rld003]

Any special programming or will it work fine? I'm nervous because I was reading that I need one working key to program the new key.

 

[zach2011]

Well, the dealer is the best place to get this done because they'll know all procedures (if any) when you get a new key. Don't worry, they'll know what to do!

they should be able to get all the needed info from your vin.

Went to the dealer today and got a key cut. Here is the procedure they said would work, insert key in ignition and wait 10 minutes, repeat again, repeat again and then then after the third time the key should be synced and will start the car.

They will want proof that you own the vehicle along with the VIN. Veh. title, registration, insurance verification.

Your right, service guy send that get tons of requests for keys and people can't prove they own the vehicle. Crazy...

I know the way to program copies... start the car with the original, take it out and start with the new, repeat a few times and the key should be programmed. I don't know the number of times, I always did 3 and it worked for me.

Did they have to change any locks or anything?

The problem is I don't have the original key.

 

[zach2011]

But you got one made and can drive the Yukon now, right?

I know that. Did they have to change any locks or did they know exactly what to cut?

Won't work in your situation, but I saved a ton by buying a key blank on e-bay and taking it to a high quality locksmith in town to cut a copy. I think it was like $30 total vs. alot more at the dealer. I wanted a spare to hide in my house so that if I lost both of the originals I would not have to go to the stealer.

Good idea

I bought a new key on ebay for a Lexus. It had a fancy laser cut key and the handle part was the fob. I swapped the electronic part from the broken key.

I shut my door in my 07 yukon the other day and came back and all the doors were locked with the keys in there. I didn't hit a button while getting out. Is this a safety feature or should I just get a magnet and put under the vehicle with a spare key? THanks

 

[rxis]

Mine does that too. However, if I have the keys in the ignition it doesn't lock.
A lot of times I think it just locks from the sensitivity of the lock button on the fob.

 

[rxis]

All this talk about keys and guess what?!?!
I lost my key and fob, so I'm ordering it on ebay.

 

[rxis]

It locked on its own immediately after I closed the driver side door while the key fob was still hanging on the wall. It must be automatic.

Wait, so were you saying that you put the electronic part of a Tahoe/Yukon key fob in a Lexus key fob and made it work? If so that's unique.
