Use your VIN.

Nope. Vin is no good for this. The dealer has these codes, but only for newer cars. I am hoping someone here has the knowledge on how to get this code.

Come on guys. I know someone has the code to get the dealer to cut me a factory key. Or at least tell me where to go get this code. I would really appreciate it.

Merged with existing thread. You answer was here all along. Just an FYI, we have an incredible SEARCH feature on this forum.

Okay, so now I see how it merged. Anyways, I followed instructions, and SEARCHED. I found the name of Ron Hertz, at 1-888-456-1888. I called, and the number is not the same. I got an agency who told me I had won a trip. Does anyone have a good phone number for Ron Hertz???

The code is specific to your car. On older model cars the number can be found in any number of places:

- in the original owner's manual (hand written or maybe stamped, or an adhesive sticker)
- on a tag that came with the original keys or a vehicle identification card
- on a plaque inside the glovebox door
- stamped or engraved on the original keys (note: not raised lettering, that's probably the key blank type not the individual lock/key code).
- refer your vehicle VIN (chassis number) to the manufacturer's database which will tell you the code(s) for the vehicle's original locks. Consult a current authorized dealer to see if this service is available for your make and model.
- under a cover on the outside rim of lock keyways
- stamped on lock housing or body (may need to remove trim to access locks)

The last one is you most likely answer, you will have to remove the lock core. Your code is stamped on that. Call a locksmith specializing in lockouts, have them come 'round, pull the lock to read the code and make new keys.
