Mitsubishi key types we work with
Mitsubishi vehicles use several different key and immobiliser systems depending on the model and year. Understanding your key type helps us prepare for the job:
- Standard transponder keys with an embedded chip that communicates with the vehicle’s immobiliser. Common on older models like the Colt, Lancer, and early Outlander.
- Remote key fobs that combine transponder security with central locking buttons. Used across many Mitsubishi ranges from the mid-2000s onwards.
- Smart keys and proximity fobs on newer models such as the Eclipse Cross, ASX, and later Outlander variants. These allow keyless entry and push-button start.
- Flip keys that combine a retractable blade with remote functions, seen on models like the L200 and Shogun.
If you are unsure which type you have, mention the model and year when you call and we can advise.

FAQs about Mitsubishi auto locksmith services
Can you replace a lost Mitsubishi key if I have no spare?
Yes. In most cases we can create a new key from scratch by decoding the lock or using diagnostic equipment to programme a new transponder or smart key. This depends on the model, year, and immobiliser system.
Can you unlock my Mitsubishi without damaging it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. The approach depends on the model and lock type. In rare cases where a lock is already damaged or seized, we discuss options before proceeding.
Can you programme a replacement smart key for a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV?
We work with smart keys for the Outlander range where the vehicle system is supported. The PHEV models have specific immobiliser requirements, so having your registration number and vehicle details ready helps us confirm capability.
Do I need to go to a Mitsubishi dealer for a new key?
Not necessarily. A mobile auto locksmith can often provide key cutting and programming at your location, which avoids arranging recovery or waiting for a dealer appointment. The suitability depends on the specific vehicle and key type.
What affects the cost of a Mitsubishi auto locksmith job?
The cost depends on several factors: your vehicle model and year, the type of key needed, whether you have a working key, the condition of the locks and ignition, and whether programming or diagnostics are required. We provide a quote before starting work. For more detail, see our pricing page.
What if my Mitsubishi key fob is not working but not physically damaged?
Key fob issues can be caused by a flat battery, a desynchronised remote, or a faulty transponder chip. Sometimes a simple resync or battery replacement resolves the problem. We diagnose the issue and advise on the most practical fix. Read more about key fob problems.
