Alphamax Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 Hello , when programming in ford keys it states number of minimum keys required either 2 or 3 , does this mean the car has to have this number programmed for it to start ? What happens in an ' all keys lost' situation ? Or do you simply add the new key without erasing the others ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamparker Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 Yes it needs the minimum before it will allow the car to work. All keys lost then you should really ALWAYS erase lost keys. Alphamax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphamax Posted July 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 I don't really follow , if it says minimum keys required for programming is 2 and , all keys lost for example , does this mean the customer will require 2 new keys?

APLLocksmiths Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 If there too tight to pay for 2 keys then clear the pats and code in 2 chips but only use 1 for the 1 key and put the other back into stock as you can still use them on another vehicle.

hibsjo(SCO) Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Why would you do the 2 chip scenario and then just give them one key ford wouldnt do this, you have to make money at this game or your wasting your time the fukkers got to learn that if they lose their one and only key its gonna hurt thats why they should have a spare. carry on!

MAKE MONEY ....I DO , ££££ Agree with private jobs and I do the same. I do a lot of police auction vehicles where they want the old keys deleting but obviously going to auction only want one key. Still make plenty of money and do around ten a week just for 1 company. You will always get your beer money boys undercutting on private jobs but they won't be around for long.
