Recommended Posts

Ive Purchased a spare Flip Key from E-Bay for my focus, followed the instruction in the cars manual and got it programmed to lock and unlock the car no problem,

now when I went to my local lock smith to get the fobs blade cut he says its a specialist job to cut that and he cant do it :o ...

Anyone else got this problem or what can i do now, please help :unsure: .

I presume he means its a specialist job to programme the key as the cutting can be done by anyone. Ford dealers charge approx £180-£200 fot this although I purchased a flip key had it cut and programmed for £75 at a auto locksmith.

i got a new key (although not remote capable) programmed to start the car (cloned of my current key) and cut for £75. this was at timpsons. they may possibly do this for you, either way i know its laser cut not conventional cutting.

My guess is you didnt go to a locksmith, you went to a key cutter,cobbler,dry cleaners or a boot sale.

If you did go to a locksmith, theres a chance he dosnt want to cut your key. Its a bit like taking you own sandwiches into a cafe.

Thanks for the posts guys, i know better now what im talking about when i ask around about getting it cut it needs to be lazer cut, i thought the difficult part would be getting one cheap on e-bay i was wrong, ill ask around at key cutters bit backward over here though, may ring the ford garage for a laugh, although the sales man is peed off with me because i bought my accessories from ford in the uk through e-bay for half the price rather than buying them off him. :lol: oohh hate that lol
