We completed an on-site RAM pickup key replacement in New Milford, NJ, after the owner lost his only key. With no spare available, he could not start the truck and contacted American Star Locksmith for help at his location.

We checked the vehicle information and identified the compatible key and remote system. This was an all-keys-lost job, so we needed to prepare and program a replacement without an existing working key to copy.
Cutting and Programming a New RAM Remote Key
We supplied a new FOBIK-style remote key and cut its emergency mechanical blade to fit the truck’s door lock. We then checked the blade in the lock to confirm that it turned smoothly.
Next, we connected our automotive programming equipment and paired the replacement key with the truck’s immobilizer system, allowing the vehicle to recognize it and authorize the engine to start.
The photo shows the black remote key in front of the RAM-branded steering wheel. Its buttons include lock, unlock, panic and a remote-start symbol. The exact truck model and year cannot be established from this image alone; compatibility was determined from the vehicle information during the job.
After programming, we checked the remote functions supported by the vehicle and tested the replacement key several times. These checks covered door operation, communication with the truck and reliable engine starting.
The customer received a working replacement at his location and could use the truck again without towing it to a dealership or replacing unnecessary parts.
Our car locksmith services include replacement keys and programming for compatible vehicles, even when every key has been lost. With our mobile locksmith service, the work can be carried out where the vehicle is located.
