Steps to take if you’ve lost your car keys

Losing your car keys can be an overwhelming and stressful experience. Whether you misplaced them, had them stolen, or accidentally locked them in your car, the frustration of not being able to access your vehicle can put a damper on your day. However, fear not! In this article, we will guide you through the steps you should take if you find yourself in this predicament. And remember, our professional mobile locksmith service is just a call away, ready to provide you with efficient and reliable assistance.

  1. Stay Calm and Assess the Situation. The first step is to remain calm and think clearly. Panicking will only hinder your problem-solving abilities. Take a deep breath, collect your thoughts, and try to assess the situation. Did you lose your keys inside your house, are they in a public place, or are they genuinely lost? Determining the possible scenarios will help you narrow down your search.
  2. Retrace Your Steps. If you believe you might have lost your car keys outside your home, retracing your steps is essential. Start by going through the places you visited recently. Check your pockets, bags, and other personal belongings thoroughly. It’s surprising how often misplaced keys turn up in unexpected places. If you still can’t find them, don’t worry – there are other solutions.
  3. Contact the Authorities. If your car keys have been stolen or you suspect they might have been, it’s crucial to notify the authorities. By reporting the incident, you create an official record and increase the chances of recovering your keys or preventing any unauthorized use of your vehicle. Remember to provide as much detail as possible to aid in the investigation.
  4. Call a Mobile Locksmith Service. When all else fails, or if you’re unable to find your keys, it’s time to seek professional help. A mobile locksmith service can come to your location equipped with the tools and expertise to get you back on the road swiftly. When reaching out to a locksmith, be prepared to provide them with the necessary details. They will typically ask for your location, and the make and model of your vehicle.

How to use a Lishi

How To Use A Lishi Pick & Decoder

Locked out of your car and lost the keys? In this video we show you how to pick and then decode a Ford door lock.

Video Transcript:

This is a Ford door lock. This is a Ford ignition door and trunk two in one pick and we’re going to pick this lock and then decode the cuts in the key that would fit this.

So, we can stick that in there, this is our tensioning tool, we’ll lift that up out of the way, then we insert the picks all the way to the back. Then we’re going to apply tension and then try and find each of these numbers is the wafer location the vertical lines the horizontal lines are the depths of the cut of the key to align those wafers properly in the cylinder to open the lock.

So, now we just this needle here and this needle here are going to indicate if there’s a little bit of springiness then we know that that wafer can be moved if there’s no springiness then there’s either not a wafer there or it’s already been picked.

So, it doesn’t look like there’s a four there we’re not getting any springiness there. I’ll go to six and we see a little springiness there so we’re going to gently push down we got a click. Five. Four. Three. Two, we’ve got a false set, go back to six. And then we’ll decode it. Six looks like a three cut, five looks like a two, four is a three, three is a two cut, two is a two cut, and there’s nothing in one.

There we go there’s our code. So now we would cut a key to those corresponding depths and it would unlock the door. An ignition has as many as 10 wafers. So we would use six through two that we decoded and then put that into a software program that is subscriber based and then you’ll have as many as four or more options as to what those remaining cuts could be to be able to make these existing cuts and the additional three or four cuts correspond to an ignition key that would also turn the ignition. And then the next step after finding that out, is programming the transponder chip in the ignition key to be able to start the car.
