Missing Vehicle Years

If you notice a missing vehicle year when invoicing or requesting compatibility by VIN, it doesn't necessarily mean that the vehicle is missing from Internal. It may be hidden due to having SKUs associated or only having unsellable SKUs associated. In this event, there is a solution.

When invoicing or requesting an SKU by VIN, there is an option to Show All next to the year. Clicking this button will give you the option to select vehicle years that are currently missing compatibility. This is common with 2025 model vehicles.

If the year is still missing after you click Show All, please contact nickj@ikeyless.com or techops@carkeysexpress.com. Be sure to include the VIN and SKU being used in your email.

Please also be sure to let us know what SKU is being used if the vehicle you're servicing is on Internal, but has no compatibility.

SmartPro: REMINDER 

Regularly updating your SmartPro is the most critical step in maintaining your device. You should update individual modules every other day and perform a full software update once a week, at minimum.
