    Hi Pete,

    First of all welcome to the forum.

    Now your problem.

    It could well be the central locking module has packed up.

    Have you had any problems starting your car at all?

    If no then there's no problem with your key or the immobiliser.

    The flashing light will be showing a fault code, watch them closely and then search the web for Ford Flash Codes or look here at the 2 digit code charts.
