At Intelligent Key Solutions, OEM refurbished keys are genuine original-equipment automotive keys that undergo our in-house refurbishment, electronic preparation, inspection, and testing process. Our goal is to deliver reliable, professionally restored OEM keys that are ready for programming to a compatible vehicle.
Genuine OEM Electronics
Every key identified as OEM Refurbished contains a genuine OEM electronic circuit board (PCB), not an aftermarket replacement board. Each key is electronically prepared with the appropriate firmware, inspected, and tested before being offered for sale. Keys are supplied ready for vehicle programming; programming to the vehicle is still required.
OEM Refurbished — WITH LOGO
Products identified as WITH LOGO retain a genuine manufacturer-branded OEM housing. These housings are carefully restored and reconditioned to meet IKS quality standards. If an original housing does not meet our inspection criteria, it is replaced with another genuine OEM housing of the corresponding part number.
We do not apply manufacturer logos to aftermarket replacement housings.
OEM Refurbished — NO LOGO
Products identified as NO LOGO contain the same genuine OEM electronics, professionally prepared and tested, but are assembled in an unbranded aftermarket replacement housing.
This option provides a more economical alternative without substituting an aftermarket electronic circuit board for the original OEM electronics.
Emergency Keys and Flip-Key Blades
Where applicable, refurbished smart keys may include replacement emergency key blades. These may be aftermarket emergency keys, or oem components with blades manufactured or CNC-cut in-house by IKS. Flip-key blades may likewise be aftermarket or manufactured in-house.
Emergency key and blade inclusion varies by product and is specified in the individual listing. Replacement blades generally require cutting to match the vehicle.
Complete Aftermarket Keys
Products containing aftermarket electronic circuit boards are a separate product category and are explicitly identified as AFTERMARKET in their listings. They are not represented as OEM refurbished keys.
Product Condition and Appearance
OEM housings are professionally cleaned, restored, and inspected to IKS quality standards. Because refurbished keys originate from previously used OEM components, minor cosmetic variations may remain. Product appearance may vary slightly from representative photographs.
Compatibility and Programming
Customers should verify the applicable OEM part number, FCC ID, frequency, button configuration, and vehicle compatibility before ordering. Professional programming may be required depending on the vehicle and key type.
All OEM refurbished keys are electronically prepared and tested before shipment, but are not pre-programmed to the purchaser's vehicle.
