About the service
Professional All Keys Lost in Hollywood
All-keys-lost is the call we get from people who have nothing to hand us. Maybe the keys vanished off a bar table near Thai Town, maybe a roommate moved out with the only fob, maybe you bought a project car off Craigslist and it came with a title and no key at all. Whatever the story, there is no working key to clone, so we cannot take a shortcut. We have to talk to the car itself.
That changes the job. A spare-key visit is fast because the car already trusts a key. Here it trusts nothing, and your immobilizer is doing exactly what it was built to do. Tucked between the 101 and the hills, Hollywood parking runs from flat metered curbs to tight subterranean garages, so where the car sits matters too. We sort that out before we touch anything.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Hollywood
First we confirm you actually own it, because generating a key for a car with no existing key is exactly what a thief would want, and a real locksmith checks. With registration and your ID matched up, we plug into the OBD port under the dash and try to pull the security data the car needs to accept a brand-new key. Most vehicles from roughly the last fifteen years let us do this in the driver's seat.
Some don't. Certain makes lock that data behind a security delay or hide it on a chip we have to physically reach, which means removing a module and reading the EEPROM on the bench. Either way the key gets cut to your lock and programmed to the immobilizer before we leave, so it both turns and starts. If your car is in a Whitley Heights garage with no signal or down in a Hollywood Boulevard structure, tell us when you call so we bring the right gear.

FAQ
Can you really make a key when I have none at all?
Yes, that is the whole point of an all-keys-lost call. We don't copy an existing key, we read the car's own security data through the OBD port or off the chip and generate a fresh key from that. As long as you can prove the car is yours, having zero working keys is normal for this service, not a dealbreaker.
How long does an all-keys-lost job take in Hollywood?
Plan on roughly 45 to 90 minutes once we're at the car for most vehicles. Common makes that allow OBD programming are at the faster end. Cars that force a timed security wait or need a module pulled and read on the bench take longer, sometimes a couple of hours. We give you a realistic window once we know the exact year, make, and model.
Do I have to tow the car to you?
No. We come to wherever it's parked in Hollywood, whether that's a metered spot off the boulevard, a spot near Little Armenia, or a subterranean garage. Towing only enters the picture if the car is in a structure with no room to work or no way to reach the dash, which is rare. Mention the parking situation when you call.
How do you get the PIN or security code without the dealer?
Two ways. On many cars we pull the code through the OBD port using the diagnostic protocol the manufacturer built in. When that's locked, we physically access the immobilizer module and read the EEPROM chip to recover the seed or PIN, then calculate the key from it. Both stay on-site, no dealer trip and no waiting days for a part.
