That's a bit trickier because to set the car into Programming Mode (for the PATS/immobiliser system, you need two working keys to add a third. As already said, you can programme the remote lock/unlock feature with just the one key provided that key is in good working order. You could also add a second key, get the blade cut & carry out the lock/unlock programming but of course this will only be any good for locking/unlocking (kind of defeats the object really). |

So actually, losing the full-function key would disable the car anyway as you would only be able to get into it with the spare key, you wouldn't be able to start it. I didn't even think of that when we bought it. Good little motor though.
I'm beginning to see why such a value is placed on having two functional keys when a car is for sale. I might end up having to use these people after all: https://www.theautolocksmith.co.uk/s...ment-car-keys/

Yes, that's correct & the reason I always tend to make sure I have a fully working spare key for my vehicles.
If they're as good as their write up, they'll certainly be able to help you out. Good luck. |

So the original message was about a Fix Or Repair Daily FORD.
So what I said before does not apply.
