My mechanic said this might help with my Aston Martin DBRS9 key issue.

Trying to avoid a $300 fee at the dealer for my Aston Martin DBRS9.

Does anyone know if this works on push-start Aston Martin DBRS9s?

This is exactly what I need for my Aston Martin DBRS9, thanks for posting!

Bookmarking this for when I work on my Aston Martin DBRS9 this weekend.

🔑 Car Key & Fob FAQ

Common questions about key programming, fob issues, and replacement options

Key Fob Issues
Sometimes. Broken buttons can often be fixed by cleaning or replacing the button pad. Cracked cases can be glued. However, water damage or circuit board issues usually require complete fob replacement. Reprogramming is still needed for replacement fobs.

Key Fob Issues
Many cars have a resync procedure: 1) Press lock/unlock buttons while near the car 2) Insert key and turn ignition on/off in a specific pattern 3) Use a sequence of button presses. Check your manual for exact steps - procedures vary widely by manufacturer.
Lost Keys
Dealerships can often cut keys using your VIN, but will require proof of ownership. This only works for original factory keys - aftermarket or previously replaced locks won't match. The key will still need programming to start the car if it has a transponder.
Key Tip: Always have at least two working keys to avoid expensive replacements
