is the key edges worn i expect thats the prob if so you need the key no or if you havent got that you might have to take out the door barrel and get ford to read nos of the plates.mine was so far gone the numbers they cut the key to was way out.but they said if i take out door barrel they will get the nos of that hope this helps

if you have a book pack you might have a sticker in there if not then its off to ford they might have it on there system but more than likely its going to be strip barrel out.unless u got a spare.i paid £5 for mine from ford cut to key no after removeing door lock and barrel

I'm Assuming your key is similar to this

If so then you will only need the horseshoe section, which are available from eBay, then have that cut for your car and change it for the worn one
