How the Ford immobiliser works
PATS (Passive Anti-Theft System) across the range, running through the instrument cluster on older models and the body control module on later ones. Transit and Transit Custom use their own module layout and often need a different approach to the cars.
Can you cut a Ford key with none left?
Yes on the great majority of Fiesta, Focus, Kuga and Transit work, programmed through the OBD port at the vehicle. Some later Transit Custom variants need extra steps.
What usually goes wrong on a Ford
- Flip-key blades snapping at the hinge, especially on Focus and Fiesta
- Transit and Transit Custom locks worn or attacked after a break-in attempt
- Ignition barrels wearing on high-mileage vans
What you will need
We verify ownership on every job without exception. It is mildly inconvenient once, and it is the reason nobody else can have a key cut to your Ford.
