Common Honda Key Problems We Fix
Honda vehicles use modern immobiliser and key systems, which are reliable – but when something goes wrong, it can leave you stranded. We regularly help Honda drivers across East London with:
-
Lost or stolen Honda keys
- No key at all? We can cut and program a new key at the roadside or at your home.

Broken or snapped Honda key blades

Honda Car Key Programming and Reprogramming
Modern Honda keys contain a small chip (a transponder) that talks to your car’s immobiliser. If this programming is wrong, the engine will not start, even if the key turns in the ignition.
Our Honda car key programming service includes:
- Transponder key programming for standard Honda keys.
- Remote key and key fob programming after replacement or repair.
- Smart key programming for push-button start models.
- Re-syncing keys after a flat battery, ECU change, or diagnostic work.
- EEPROM and ECU/immobiliser programming for tricky cases where standard tools will not communicate with the vehicle.
If you are having issues with your remote, visit our Car Key Programming page for more detail.

If you are experiencing similar issues on other vehicles, our key fob not working guide explains common causes and solutions.

FAQs – Honda Auto Locksmith East London
Can you make a Honda car key without the original?
Yes. In most cases we can create a new Honda key without the original. Using your vehicle identification (VIN), door lock or ignition, and diagnostic tools, we can cut a new blade and program a new transponder chip to match your Honda’s immobiliser. This is often faster and more convenient than waiting for a dealer.
How long does it take to get a new Honda key?
It varies by model and the type of key, but most Honda car key replacements can be completed in a single visit, typically within one appointment. Complex immobiliser or ECU issues can take longer, but we always explain the expected timescale before starting work.
Will you have to tow my Honda to a garage or dealer?
No. As a mobile auto locksmith, we bring dealer-level tools to you anywhere in East London. We can usually cut and program keys, unlock the vehicle, or repair locks at the roadside, at home, or at your workplace, with no need for towing.
Is it cheaper to use an auto locksmith than a Honda dealer?
In many situations, yes. A mobile locksmith can often provide cheaper and faster Honda key replacement than a main dealer, especially when you factor in towing, waiting times, and dealer labour rates. For more on this topic, see our overview of auto locksmith prices in East London.
Can you erase lost or stolen Honda keys from the system?
In most cases we can delete lost or stolen keys from the Honda immobiliser, so they no longer start the engine. This is particularly important if you believe your keys were stolen. We can then program new keys and provide guidance on additional security if needed.
Do you cover Honda key problems across all of East London?
Yes. We cover the full E postcode region, including Stratford, East Ham, Canning Town, Barking, Walthamstow, Leyton, Canary Wharf, Hackney, Bow, Poplar, Whitechapel, Plaistow, Wanstead, Isle of Dogs, and surrounding areas. For more detail, see the areas we cover, or just call with your postcode.
