hybridtrendz 0 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 We just bought a used 2013 Spark LT from a rental company. It only came with one key. It has the keyless entry/key all-in-one. I assume I have to get the whole unit from the dealer. With proof of ownership? Am I on the right track? Look forward to browsing the forum more! -hybridtrendz Link to post Share on other sites
WaltK 305 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Correct, I would call a dealership, to get the specifics, though. This way you will be fully armed when you get there. Edited September 2, 2015 by WaltK Retired old Gearhead 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Tucker 2 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Yes sometimes they can be so specific as to proof Link to post Share on other sites
Skids 108 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 If you take them your registration with your name on it and ID showing the same name you should be fine. The rental place should have given you both keys. hope you got a deal on it, the replacement key fobs are expensive,especially with the reprogramming and everything Link to post Share on other sites
bluer101 241 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 You don't need an proof of ownership. How – With one programmed transmitter availabel NOTE: A maximum of 8 key transmitters can be programmed Insert programmed master key transmitter into ignition Switch ignition ON Switch ignition OFF Remove master key transmitter Within 10 seconds insert new key transmitter and switch ignition ON New key transmitter now programmed You can only do this with a brand new key, never used on a car before. As the chip can only be programmed to one car. Retired old Gearhead and SilentSpectre 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Dockrey 97 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 And be prepared. What the dealer is going to charge you is not going to be inexpensive. I wouldn't be surprised if its not clost to $300 by the time you are donw. Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.tozzi 66 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Buy a blank, have it cut and program it yourself, you'll save some good money. Link to post Share on other sites
Ellsworth 0 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I recently bought a used 2013 Spark LS and was only given one key. This car was bought from Hertz Car Sales. This key is not a fob key but just a simple key and it has a chip inside. If I purchase a blank can I program it through the ignition method? Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.tozzi 66 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Ellsworth. You can program it yourself. Just get a blank cut. Link to post Share on other sites
Retired old Gearhead 201 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Make sure the handle of the key has a proper chip..can't program a regular key without the chip in the handle. Link to post Share on other sites
ChevyBeat 28 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Is there any way to check if chevy key is blank one or with chip (I guess for engine immobilizer)? I am asking as mine spark have GM accessory remote locking system, autocop, which is an aftermarket kind. So originally with vehicle is just a pair of keys. Looking at keys I can't say if they have chip or not. Link to post Share on other sites
