The Mitsubishi transponder key, and how we set one up.
Mitsubishi switched several of its models to the Philips ID46 chip in the mid-2000s, and this Ilco key, cross-referenced as MIT16A, is built around that chip. It replaces the plain transponder key with no buttons, the one you turn in the ignition.
The chip is what makes the difference between a key that turns and a key that starts. The car's immobiliser reads the ID46 every time you switch on, and if it does not recognise the code, the engine will not run. So when you order this key, decide between two services: cut only, which gives you a door key, or cut and program, which gives you a full working key.
For programming, the car has to be there. Registration and photo ID are required. If you still have a working key, the process is simpler than when every key has been lost.
The MIT16A and the MIT14 can look similar at a glance but use different chips and blades. If you are not sure which your Mitsubishi takes, tell us the year and model and we will check before cutting. We cut on a code machine at our Vancouver counter or at the car.
How to order. Call with the SKU. We confirm the price, the stock and the fit, then cut, program or fit it. Items in stock are usually ready the same day.

How it works, and what to know.
Before you call
- One listing covers 4 model years, 2004 to 2007, so we confirm your exact year and trim before cutting.
- Canada made engine immobilisers mandatory on new cars from September 2007, so every year from then on in this range has a chip in the key.

Can you program this key to my car?
If the FCC ID or part number matches your key, yes. We program it at the counter or at your car.
Do I need the car there?
For programming, yes. The key is paired to the car itself.
My key looks the same but the FCC ID differs. Will it work?
No, it will not program. Match the FCC ID, not the look.
Can you erase a lost key?
Where the car allows it, yes. We remove the lost key from the car's memory when we program the new one.
What ID do you need?
Photo ID, and the registration or insurance in your name.
