Lost key to jimmy

99sonoma4x4 · 02-18-2009, 10:34 PM

I did the biggest bone head move today I lost the key to the Jimmy I have looked everywhere and I am drawing a blank.I have to call a locksmith for sure now, I read that the number could be stamped on the lock cylinder in one of the doors. Any Ideas?

I think dealerships are able to make new ones off of the vin.

99sonoma4x4 · 02-18-2009, 11:19 PM

Off the vin? thanks I'll call tomorrow.

yea that will work. make sure you have your drivers license with you. and you need the VIN# too. it can cost between $5-40 depending on the dealership.

yeah and if they tell you that you have a chip in the key...walk out and go to another dealer

No chip in the key in this jimmy, I just have to pay for the mistake or bone head move of loosing the key.

Got the key made at Mr. Lockout, the guy was great we had a good laugh it was easy on the wallet not to painful $35.00 and I was on my way with 3 keys and the key code you know just in case.

Not bad at all for 3 keys!

I had a door lock key made from my vin at our dealership, it was like $3-$8. I'd say that's a lot more accurate than just having one made at say Wal-Mart or somewhere. The one I have now(only one) sometimes won't crank the Blazer if it goes in one way, but it always will if it goes in the other way.
