shorts Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 ok so i cant reprogram the keys for some reason, so can anyone tell me the best way to get the chips out of my old key to put in my new keys without to much damage? cheers shorts Quote
bigdaddy Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 What type of key is the old one,,,,if remote type on the side oppisite the buttons there is a small gap put a small screwdriverin to pop open the housing,,,the chip is in there beside the key blade,,,,,if it is the non-remote type of key,,,,,there is a small piece of square plastic on thre top edge of the key try to pop this out or drill it out or use a hot knife,,,,,,,,,,,,,think you may need to go to ford to get the keys programmed Quote
Masked Marauder Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 Shorts has bought a new lock set so one key will do everything as at the moment he is using a cluster of keys! So he wants to remove the programed transponders and put them into his new keys. Quote
shorts Posted November 16, 2005 Author Report Posted November 16, 2005 at the moment i need 2 chips, one from a solid normal key (the red one as its the only spare i have, and one from a key with a light in it. cheers shorts Quote
Masked Marauder Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 Well the red key should have a rectangular plug in the top, you prise that out and there is the chip. With the torch key, you prise the top off the key and the chip is in the horse-shoe shaped bit of the key. Quote
shorts Posted November 16, 2005 Author Report Posted November 16, 2005 sucess, woo hooo well i managed to get the chip out of the light key and put it im my new remote key, and it now works :lol: left the other key as is as the wife has it so it can stay as a just door key and can still be used to start if needs be using the red key in the imobs ring so thianks for all your help and i now have a one key car :blink: Quote
