New van key

[rocketmanbkk]

Does anybody know where I can get a new transit connect key? It's the normal one with no buttons.

Apparently it needs to be programmed or a cloned chip fitted

Ford dealer wants £140 - no thanks!

Get a key cut for it then tape the old key to the steering column so the widget activates the thingamijig!

A lot of the mobile automobile lock replacement guys have the kit for when they replace a broken key. Might be cheaper.

I got 2 new keys from a mobile fitter.
they have to code them from your van ( make sure they delete from the ecu, any old keys) still cost £130

just take the chip out of the old/broken key and glue it to the steering column, then the new unchipped keys will work ok

 

[rocketmanbkk]

What if I lose the chip? Buggered.

 

[Ermintrude]

Screw it to the dash

 

[gassafe]

That chip is a security measure!! Some scrote might start it with a screwdriver one day lol!

 

[rpm]

Screw it to the dash

Don`t think the insurance company would be to impressed with that.
