Adding Keys



The ignition lock cylinder and keys do not contain any coded electronic components. The lock cylinder housing contains the coded electronic components. Changing an ignition lock cylinder or adding a key is a purely mechanical process which does not affect the vehicle theft deterrent system. To add a key, simply cut a new key to match the existing one. To change the lock cylinder, simply replace the existing lock cylinder with one of the same type.
