Ignition

Hello,

With today's cars it is tough if not impossible to hot wire a car because of the anti-theft system which needs a computer chip to activate the system and allow the engine to run. A locksmith may be able to cut you an ignition key so you could at least get the ignition turning. You will still need to get key programmed

Please use 2CarPros anytime, we are here to help and tell a friend.
