The GM emergency key blade, and how we set one up.
Chevrolet, GMC, Buick and Cadillac fobs from these years hide a mechanical key inside the case. Press the release, slide the key out, and use it on the driver's door when the fob or the vehicle battery has failed. This is the replacement blade. There is a catch that surprises a lot of GM owners: on many models the driver's door keyhole sits under a plastic cap on the handle, which you have to pop off with the blade itself to reach the cylinder. Knowing that ahead of time saves a lot of confusion in a dark parking lot. Because it is purely a door key, it carries no chip, will not start the engine and needs no programming. What it does need is an accurate cut. GM door locks on push start vehicles go years without being used, and a blade that is slightly off will not turn a stiff cylinder. We cut it to code or from your existing key, and test it in the door if the vehicle is nearby. GM used more than one blade style over this span, so let us confirm yours by model and year or by looking at your fob.
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.
