katelyndon Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 We have just bought a 2011 ford transit. It came with 2 keys. The blue key with the central locking and a normal black key. Only the black key will start van. Any ideas why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 It needs the immobiliser chip programming to the car.Probably a replacement key that the previous owner never bothered setting up properly.See a decent auto locksmith.Sent from my SM-G965F (S9+) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katelyndon Posted June 14, 2018 Author Share Posted June 14, 2018 Thanks. I will have to try that but I bet it's not cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Far cheaper than a new key from a deslership for sure.Sent from my SM-G965F (S9+) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseGeezer Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I recently bought my 2005 Fiesta with only 1 key. After being tempted to part with at least £100 to get a spare, my trawling through Google led me to a free program called Forscan. I purchased 2 pre-cut chipped keys and was able to program them to the car using my laptop and a bluetooth OBD scanner that cost me about 3 quid. It may be worth going down this route before paying megabucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
