WRONG KEY CODES

Postby X476 » Tue Nov 10, 2015 6:37 pm

Cusromer request extra key, looked up invoice gave me the key code, customer has tags of keys has same code. Ordered precut GM cancelled stated invalid code. Doulbe checked everything and the code I have is as stated. Call GM help desk they tell me there is nothing they can do and we should replace the lock cylinder??? Hoe in the hell does that get me a spare key. Any ideas on how to help this customer.

Try contacting your dealer business center, they have helped us in the past when we had issues with known good key codes.

We had this happen once and a local locksmith copied the original to a blank key I got from GM. This is assuming the customer has a working key and just needed a spare.

When you ran their VIN in GlobalConnect key code area, did it show the same code?

Yes everywhere that I have access to, GM key codes, the invoice and even global help desk all say the same thing.

I can bring it up on my machine and take a pic of how its supposed to be cut. Not sure how to get the picture to you though.. Just to make sure that GM cut it correctly..
