If I buy this key does it come with everything Home Depot needs to cut and program the key so that it will work in my ignition ? Does it come with the chip ?Thank you.Tom

Short answer is no. I Bought the same key. There is a transponder inside but it's not programmed....it needs to be programmed by a Honda dealership. Each transponder code is different for each car, so the Honda dealership looks up the code according to your VIN# and programs the transponder accordingly. You cannot just go down to Home Depot, Ace Hardware, or wherever your favorite key cutter is and expect to walk out with a replacement key; it'll fit into the ignition but it won't turn. Yeah, Honda is going to charge you $100+ for a replacement....and that's about the only option you've got. Sorry... Short answer is no. I Bought the same key.

There are no electronics on this key. I went to Home Depot and they don't cut keys you bring, they cut their own. I had to go to the Sears locksmith. A google search will helo you find the nearest one to you.

No no chip. I was able to program to lock and unlock doors but still had to get dealership to cut the key and place chip. The key came with instructions to program which did not work. I had to look up further instructions online.

No. You will need to get the blank key cut for yours. You will also need to make sure you pull out the little electronic chip and put in new key shell or the car will not start. It cost me $30.00 to have the key cut at a local locksmith. A whole lot cheaper then dealer.

This key fob is ready to program and use. You must have a working key fob to program it yourself otherwise you will have to take it to the dealer. Hope this helps :)

I would add to my previous answer that none of the keys with chips in them come programmed, they always need to be programmed when you purchase them new as each vehicle is uniquely coded.

Mine had the chip box. Had to carefully pry the old chip out with a small screwdriver and glue it in the new key.

Check if your key has a chip. If so, you need an immobilizer, any type just depending on how much you want to spend and if you want to buy a cheap one that requires you to give up a key permanently or spend more for a programmable one. Any one should "work" just depends on how much you want to spend. And if you don't want to hook up the remote start then no you don't need one but if you do want to then you need one IF your key has a chip.

It did require the dealer to program the key. With the cost of the key and having to have the dealer program it, the cost was still way less than buying directly from the dealer. I am very pleased with my purchase!

My chip key was for my new 2013 Mazda 3. A local Sacramnto, CA ACE Hardware could make chip & remote keys for all models except the most recent, which mine was. You might want to check with local stores that make duplicate keys first. If you still can't locate a place, then you must make sure the key you order is a blank "chip" key and check on-line for the simple way to program your new blank with one of your original keys. I don't think the above key is what you want. Hope this helps. Also, when my blank chip key came I had to take it to a locksmith store to get it cut to fit my original key to unlock the cardskey door. Then we were able to program it ourselves. An overall savings over dealer bought & programed key of approx. $300.00.

I don't know how the key is cut to work - but I do know that the key works - we've had to use it. I assume that at least with the original key fob for the vehicle that the key is cut for the vehicle at the factory.

Yes, the key is uncut. You have to take it to the dealership for them to program it for your vehicle.

Most likely is a transponder car key or one that has a chip on it. That is mostly for ignition purposes. If you do not need it for ignition but only for open/lock the car, then you no need any programming. Does your key has a gray bulky head? If that so, then you will have to get it programmed by an auto locksmith/dealer or somebody that can programmed it if you buy the blank key.

Hi, Indeed mine came with Transponder chip but you need someone to program it for you or if you have the tools to program it yourself, you shouldn't have any problem. I hope this answers your question, cheers
