spamstheman Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Hi all Ok - tried today to clone a transponder from 56 plate Ford KA with genuine Ford key using a Zed Bull - The Zed tells me the chip is a Texas 4C - so using a Z4C the cloning was done - however the car will not start and the clock light flashes away. Re read both transponders and both are show the same code(ie the original and the clone) - re tried using a TPX1 - got the same results. Had the same problem with a 56 plate KA a few months ago - all other fords - no probs. any ideas folks ????? Btw - Merry Christmas ALL Cheers spam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hibsjo(SCO) Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 seems they never sorted this "blip" cant be done by cloning(but i stand to be corrected). weve only ever had success at programming through the car diagnostically. carry on!

grahamparker Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Have to agree with hibs there are some KA's that can only be done diagnostically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markozed Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 As far as I am aware on the Ford KA up to 2008 they still use the Z4C chip. If using the zed bull you must use the Z4C chip as the KA does not for some reason like the TPX1 transponders. Also check the key that you are using if the transponder is not close enough to the transmier on the vehicle this may cause the problem that you are having. I made sure that the transponder was pushed as far into the insert on the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers - will try this as i now think the two chips i tried were both TPX 1 - will post back wether it works or not. Cheers Spam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 As a curiosity I emailed keyline to see if they new of any issues with this using the 884 & they replied Good morning Mr. Leeabout ford ka with 4c transponder (texas fixed code) we don't know any problems in cloning procedure with 884. This type of transponder is mounted in ford ka from 1996 to 2008. best regards Luca You've got to love broken English haven't you! so although you might not be able to do a remote, you can clone on the 884 with out stress!
