Ford Immobiliser and Key Types Explained

• Transponder Keys

  • A small chip inside your key talks to your Ford’s immobiliser. Without a correctly programmed chip, the car won’t start.

• Remote Flip Keys

  • Combine a transponder chip with remote locking/unlocking. We repair shells, replace blades, and program remotes.

• Smart/Proximity Keys (Keyless)

  • For push-to-start Fords (e.g., Kuga, Focus Mk4, Puma), we program proximity fobs so the car recognises the key in your pocket or bag.

• High-Security/Laser-Cut Keys

  • Thicker, centre-grooved blades common on modern Fords and Transits; cut precisely on specialist machines.

If your Ford says “key not detected”, “immobiliser active”, or shows a red key icon, it often points to a key or immobiliser sync issue we can diagnose and fix roadside.

FAQs: Ford Keys and Locks in Bromley

Can you make a Ford key without the original?

Yes. We can cut and program a new Ford key or fob even if you’ve lost the original. We’ll verify vehicle ownership and use your Ford’s lock/immobiliser data to create and code a working key on site.

Can you program Ford proximity/smart keys with push-to-start?

Absolutely. We provide smart key programming for modern Fords (e.g., Focus Mk4, Kuga, Puma, Mondeo). We use dealer-level tools to pair the fob with your immobiliser and confirm keyless entry/start functions.

My Ford says “key not detected”. What should I do?

First, try a fresh key battery. If it still won’t start, the key may be out of sync or the immobiliser needs programming. We can diagnose and fix this roadside with OBD2 or, where required, EEPROM/immobiliser programming.

How long does Ford key replacement take?

Most Ford keys can be supplied, cut, and programmed the same day from our mobile units. Times vary by model/year and whether it’s a standard transponder key, remote flip, or proximity fob.

Will you damage my Ford when unlocking it?

We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. In rare cases of severe lock malfunction, we’ll explain the options and costs before any work.

Is it cheaper to use a local auto locksmith than a Ford dealer?

Often yes, especially for mobile convenience and speed. We provide a free, accurate quote up front. Learn more about auto locksmith prices Bromley.
