Key replacement

Volvo keys and the CEM.

Volvo keys are coded through the CEM, the car’s central electronic module. Many older V40, S60 and XC90 models use a slot key that you push into the dashboard, while newer XC40, XC60, XC90, V60 and S90 models use Keyless Drive fobs.

Key systems we work with

Central Electronic Module (CEM), Keyless Drive, Smart Slot Fobs

Faults we see on Volvo keys

Key slot non-recognition, CEM security access delays, and flat smart battery.

Lockouts

Locked out of a Volvo?

Volvo lockouts are picked with Lishi HU56 and HU101 tools, including cars that have armed themselves with the key inside.

Tools

Lishi HU56 & HU101 Volvo Pick Tools

Typical lockouts

Keys locked inside cabin during auto-arm, slot key lockout, and dead fob emergency entry.

Programming

Volvo key programming.

We programme slot keys and Keyless Drive fobs to the CEM on site; on some Volvos this takes a while because the CEM makes the programmer wait for security access.

Questions

Volvo key questions.

My Volvo says the key isn’t found in the slot.

The slot reader or the key’s transponder may have failed. We test both and supply a new key if needed.

Why does Volvo key programming take longer?

Some Volvos make the programmer wait for security access to the CEM before keys can be added. It’s still done at the car.

Do you do XC90 keys?

Yes, for both the older slot-key XC90 and the newer keyless model.
