Quick answers for Leimert Park
Is it cheaper to replace the fob battery or the whole fob in Leimert Park? + −
If the buttons work and it just went dead, a battery is a few dollars. Replace the fob when it is water-damaged, cracked, or lost — then it needs programming to your car.
Can I use an aftermarket fob instead of OEM in Leimert Park? + −
Sometimes. Aftermarket fobs cost less and work on many models, but not all. Give the year and make so the locksmith can say what actually programs to your car.
Do I have to tow the car to get a new fob in Leimert Park? + −
Usually no. Fob programming is typically done on site where the car is parked, as long as it is somewhere safe to work.
What should I tell the locksmith in Leimert Park? + −
Cross streets, gate or intercom codes, parking rules, and car vs home. For vehicles, include color, make, and where it is parked. ZIP 90008 is commonly routed from Leimert Park.
