When You Need a Jeep Locksmith
Jeep owners call us for a wide range of situations. If any of the following sounds familiar, we can help today:
- Lost or stolen Jeep keys in North London, and you need a replacement set and the old keys securely removed from the vehicle.
- Locked keys in your Jeep—boot or cabin—at home, work, or roadside.
- Key fob not working or intermittent response; “Key Fob Not Detected” on the dash.

- Jeep car key snapped in the door or ignition; broken blade or worn flip key.
- Key won’t turn in the ignition; steering lock or ignition barrel problems.
- Central locking faults on one or more doors; remote locking not responding.
- Battery died in the key fob and the emergency blade won’t turn the lock.

How We Solve Jeep Key and Lock Problems
We’re set up to be your mobile, same-day solution. Here’s how it works:
-
Quick triage and quote
Call us and tell us the model, year, and what happened. We confirm identification requirements, outline the options, and give a clear, no-obligation quote. We never promise unrealistic arrival times; instead we prioritise efficient dispatch across the N postcode area. -
We come to you, fully equipped
Our mobile units carry dealer-level diagnostics, laser key cutting, and programming tools for Jeep vehicles. We can produce, cut, and code a new key or smart fob at the roadside, workplace, or home. -
Non-destructive vehicle entry where possible
Locked out? We use professional lock-picking and air-wedge techniques to gain entry without damage wherever possible. In rare cases where drilling is the safest option (for severely damaged locks), we’ll explain it first and replace the component. -
Precise diagnostics and coding
- OBD2 programming: For many models, we retrieve security data and code keys through the OBD2 port using approved methods.
- EEPROM/BCM solutions: On certain Jeep platforms (e.g., Renegade/Compass with FCA/Marelli systems), we can extract PIN/CS data from the body control module when required.
- SGW-aware programming: For 2018+ FCA vehicles fitted with a Security Gateway (SGW), we use compliant access or authorised bypass tools to perform diagnostics and key programming safely.
-
Key cutting and cloning
We cut emergency blades and high-security/laser keys to code, then program transponder chips and remote functions. For proximity keys, we configure the fob, sync the immobiliser, and test passive entry and push-to-start. -
Full testing and handover
We test lock/unlock, boot release, remote start (where fitted), emergency start procedures, and immobiliser pairing. You receive guidance on using the emergency blade and any future battery replacements.
Our approach is grounded in best practice: modern diagnostics, dealer-level equipment, and clear communication at each step.
Jeep Models We Support in North London
We handle most UK Jeep models, past and present:
- Grand Cherokee (WK/WK2/2022+)
- Cherokee (KK/KL)
- Wrangler (JK/JL)
- Compass (MK/MP)
- Renegade (BU)
- Patriot (MK, older)
- Commander (XK, older)
- Gladiator (JT, where registered in the UK)
- Avenger (including the latest electric platforms)
From traditional transponder keys and flip remotes to modern proximity keys with passive entry, we have the tooling and software to cut, code, and troubleshoot Jeep keys and locks across the range.
Common Jeep Key And Immobiliser Systems Explained
Understanding how Jeep security systems work helps explain why professional diagnostics matter:
-
Transponder keys
Earlier Jeeps use transponder chips embedded in the key head. The immobiliser checks this chip; if not recognised, the engine won’t start. We program new transponders and, if needed, delete old/lost keys from memory. -
Remote fobs and flip keys
Many models combine a remote fob with a physical blade (flip or fixed). We can replace damaged blades, repair flip mechanisms, and restore remote locking functions. -
Proximity/smart keys (Keyless Go)
Wrangler JL, Grand Cherokee, Renegade, Compass, and newer models often use proximity fobs with push-button start. We pair new fobs to the vehicle’s RFH (Radio Frequency Hub) or relevant control module and check that both passive entry and ignition are synchronised. -
SKREEM/WCM/WIN modules
Depending on model year, Jeeps may use SKREEM (Sentry Key Remote Entry Module), a WCM (Wireless Control Module), or a WIN module for ignition/switch control. Faults here can present as “Key Not Detected” or intermittent start. We diagnose and repair or reprogram where appropriate. -
FCA/Marelli/BCM and SGW (Security Gateway)
Renegade/Compass and newer Stellantis-based platforms rely on Marelli BCMs and, from ~2018 onwards, a Security Gateway. We use compliant, dealer-level approaches—OBD2 programming when allowed, EEPROM for data when required, and SGW-authorised access—to keep your Jeep safe and restore function correctly. -
Central locking and remote issues
If your Jeep’s remote locks one door but not others, the issue may be the actuator, wiring, or fob. We differentiate module faults from mechanical failures quickly, saving you time and cost.
If a used fob is proposed, we’ll explain the limitations up front. Many Jeep fobs cannot be reprogrammed to a different vehicle; where reuse is risky or unsupported, we’ll recommend a new, warranted key.

Jeep Key Replacement And Programming Options
Whether you need a spare or have no working key, we’ve got you covered:
-
Spare Jeep key and cloning
Ideal for peace of mind. We cut and program a second key/fob and show you the emergency start procedure if your battery ever fails. -
All keys lost
We verify ownership, gain entry non-destructively, retrieve immobiliser data, and create and program new keys. We can also remove lost or stolen keys from the system so they can no longer start the vehicle. -
Faulty fobs and remotes
We diagnose whether the issue sits with the key (battery, circuit board, frequency), the vehicle (receiver, BCM, RFH), or the locks. Minor repairs—such as case replacement or blade re-pinning—can save buying a brand-new fob in some cases. -
Ignition and steering lock repairs
If your key won’t turn or is jammed, we repair or replace worn barrels and align new keys accordingly, ensuring the immobiliser matches the new setup.
For many customers, a mobile Jeep locksmith is faster and more convenient than a main dealer—no towing, no waiting weeks for appointments, and often same-day solutions on your driveway or at work.
Costs And Quotes For Jeep Keys In North London
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Jeep keys because costs depend on:
- Model, year, and immobiliser system (e.g., proximity vs transponder)
- Whether you still have a working key or all keys are lost
- The type of key/fob (flip remote, proximity, high-security blade)
- Diagnostic complexity (e.g., SGW access, EEPROM data, module faults)
- Timing and location (standard hours vs emergency call-out)
We’ll give you a clear estimate once we know your Jeep’s details. For more on how we price our work, see our auto locksmith prices in North London on the pricing page.

FAQs
Can you make a Jeep key without the original?
Yes. With proof of ownership, we can create a new key or proximity fob from scratch. We use OBD2 programming, EEPROM/BCM data where required, and dealer-level diagnostics to marry the key to your Jeep’s immobiliser.
Will you damage my Jeep when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible—professional lock-picks and air wedges designed for vehicle use. In rare cases where a lock or barrel is already damaged, we’ll discuss options and costs before proceeding.
Can you reprogram a used Jeep key fob?
Often, Jeep fobs are “locked” to the first vehicle they’re paired with. While some older types can be reused after specific procedures, many cannot. We’ll advise based on your model and year and recommend a reliable, warranted solution.
How long does it take to get a new Jeep key?
For many models, we can cut and program a replacement during a single mobile visit. Timing varies by model, immobiliser system, and whether all keys are lost. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when you call.
Do you cover my part of North London?
Yes. We cover the N postcode area including Islington, Holloway, Archway, Highbury, Finsbury Park, Muswell Hill, Highgate, Finchley, Barnet, Tottenham, Wood Green, Enfield, Stoke Newington, and nearby neighbourhoods.
What if my Jeep says “Key Fob Not Detected”?
This can be a weak fob battery, a failing fob, or a vehicle-side issue (receiver, RFH/BCM, SGW-related). Try the emergency start position shown in your manual; if it still won’t start, call us for diagnostics and coding at your location.
Are your technicians insured and vetted?
Absolutely. Our team is DBS-checked and we carry public liability insurance. We stand behind our work with warranties on keys and workmanship.
