TCGS Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 When I bought my car I had two keys, but while moving home lost the spare so now I only have one. I phoned Ford and asked how much it would be to get it cut and they wanted a staggering £136 ("approximately" she said) which to me sounds insane for just the key (without the central locking fob) So, any other options?

Euan1989 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 You can buy blanks from eBay and take them to a key cutting shop, I believe most Timpsons do none remote keys but can also do some remote locking keys too Type "ford blank keys" in to eBay search should find a few Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan62 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Only having 1 original key you will not be able to program a new key to start the car. Your estimate 'probably' includes programming by the dealership. I invested £20 a while back to get a 3rd jic I loose 1, the eBay seller even cut it for free if you supplied the key number. Using the 2 original keys it took about a minute to program the 3rd. Cloning your existing key is another option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Robbins Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Aye, it's the transponder in the key which allows it to turn the security off is why it's expensive, its not like a house key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
