WHICH MITSUBISHI MODEL KEYS NEED REPLACING?
Ford has always been an excellent motor company. Having built vehicles across all ranges, they are prevalent in the UK and have earned themselves the name as the Backbone of Britain. In the mid-1990s, vehicle manufacturers started to use immobiliser systems, and Ford used a selection of different remote and manual keys.

WHAT IS THERE TO KNOW ABOUT FORD KEYS?
KEY OPERATION
Old Ford vehicles equipped with immobilisers had a red master key that allowed key programming of another Ford replacement key by a procedure of cycling ignition. All other keys are valet keys, and they were black. However, more modern systems don’t have a master key, and the only way to create a new Ford key replacement is by diagnostic equipment. The Tibbe Ford key style came into circulation during the 1990s and was the shape of an oval with tips. This type of key was used across the full range of Ford cars and vans until it was stopped late 2013 on the Transit Connects.
PATS LED INDICATOR
The vehicle security system used by Ford is called PATS (Passive Anti-Theft Systems). It integrates several control units that have to be aligned in the programming software for the engine to be able to start. All Ford vehicles have a PATS LED indicator. When the ignition is switched on, they will brighten for approximately three seconds, and at this time, it runs a self-test. When the PATS system is immobilised, the LEDs will flash quickly, or the light will go out if the test has passed.

WHAT FORD KEY SERVICES DO WE PROVIDE?
LOST OR BROKEN FORD KEY REPLACEMENT
If breaking or losing your Ford key, and you’re considering using a main dealer for replacing and programming new ones – think about the cost. You have to tow your vehicle to the dealership before you add the cost of the transponder chip programming, as well as the possible other control units replacement. However, if you choose Car Keys Solutions, the car keys specialist, we will be with you on the very same day with our mobile service. We can cut new keys on the spot, and program your Ford replacement key while you wait!
FORD SPARE KEY
We highly recommend that you have a Ford spare key in case of an emergency. It is the most cost-effective and hassle-free way to prevent getting into trouble when you lose or break your key. We can also create a spare car key on the spot, to give you peace of mind that you’re not going to be away from behind the wheel for very long.

CAR KEY PROGRAMMING
In some cases, the remote key or transponder chip can become desynchronised. In this case, ECU installed in the car will not be able to recognise the correct signal and will stop the engine from starting or central locking to operate. If the car won’t start and you believe it is a problem with the key, then it may be that the transponder chip needs re-syncing. Here at Car Keys Solutions, we have the latest dedicated diagnostic and programming equipment to reprogram Ford keys and get them working again. Before you apply for a brand new set of keys for your car or van, give us a call as we may be able to help and provide a cheaper option!
CAR OR VAN UNLOCKING
Have you accidentally locked car keys in the boot of your car or the back of your van? Is there something that you’ve left in your locked vehicle that you urgently need to get out? Well, this is more common than you may think! Car Keys Solutions’ emergency team can be at your side quicker than ever to open your doors. Our auto locksmiths are professionally trained and experienced in the best techniques to get your vehicle doors open quickly and safely with no nicks or dents left behind.
CAR KEY REPAIR
Not every key needs replacing after it gets broken. Fixing a broken car key can be just as easy as making a new one. Our skilled Ford auto locksmiths can piece together and fix any broken components at a fraction of the cost of a brand new Ford replacement key. If your key has snapped off in your car door or bent in the ignition, then we can extract it without leaving any damage. We can also repair Ford keys that are sealed when the remote stops functioning.
DOOR LOCK REPAIR/IGNITION BARREL REPAIR
Maybe it’s not your key that’s broken, and it’s perhaps a lock that’s causing the problem or even the ignition. Thankfully, our experts can identify the problem efficiently and have it fixed in no time. If your key gets stuck in the lock, we can remove it safely and even repair the lock afterwards. Using the best equipment, our highly trained auto locksmiths can get the job done without any fuss.

HOW DOES AN IMMOBILISER WORK?
Most vehicles sold in England after 1995 have an immobiliser function, including a transponder chip fitted into a remote key or manual key. As technology has evolved, immobiliser systems are continually changing and becoming more and more complex. About 15 years ago, Ford changed the anti-theft system operation. Keys programmed using the fixed transponder code now use a more advanced system of coding with different security code every time the vehicle starts. The coding procedure is known as a rolling code. This will help to keep cars secure and safe from anyone trying to break in with a duplicate key. A control unit operates the security system as a standalone unit or part of another module. The immobiliser ensures that every time a key not programmed to that specific vehicle is used, the engine will be stopped from starting.
