Automotive locksmiths guide!?

[Mslocksmiths]

This may be a question that has been asked a million times! Is there a model specific guide for replacing lost keys?

a model specific guide for replacing lost keys? what are you asking exactly, this question is confusing.

do you mean like.. if I drive a 1994 Honda Accord and lost all my keys, what do you do to make new keys? or what key blank to use? or how to recover the key code to cut a new key? please clarify for us.

are you already a locksmith or someone learning to become a locksmith or get into auto work?

Kinda sounds like you are talking about the Autosmart. They have an import and a domestic auto guidebook, vehicles are listed in alphabetical order by make & model. It won't tell you which models are using transponder keys, only when they began being used. Models with power functions have a greater chance of using a transponder key while base models with manual windows tend to use a plain key.

I locksmith would have a 'guide' via the supply company they order products from. You wont find anything online
