Anyone had any probs with track & laser keys working after they have decoded them... I've had a couple now, although the cut looks the same they haven't worked... Had to cut them off my old manual machine.

Had the same problem with some Mercedes keys, the HU39P. Looked the same but didn't work.  Although I had cleaned the original key and decoded it, it didn't work. So I decoded the original key again and wrote the code down, afterwards I decoded the new key and saw that at one point there was a different code. Adapted it and the key fitted.

Futura searchs the code as its given by the factory. A worn key can give a false code because of wrong measerements.

the whole of the cut seemed too far to the right, so when i put the key i'd cut in my manual machine it took some off all along one side of the cut, but didn't even touch the other side.

Does the machine need calibrating?

I've asked that question and been told no!

I've had my machine a couple of years now and very rarely had any problems with track and Lazer or dimple keys.  With edge keys the decoding is a little less accurate.  If you wanted to test it, if I have a blank you could send me the code and I'll run one off for you.

Just for everybody's reference, there is a new update available for the Futura. (Since the 'D E F' Yale superior card was added)
