2018 Ford Transit Custom
This customer reached out after loosing their only remote van key to their stunning Transit custom. Not only that it had the only key to the aftermarket high security hook locks and driver door rep lock. Not an issue for us, as we carry the correct and up to date tools and equipment to deal with them also.
We opened and decoded driver door rep lock. Cutting x2 L4V T series genuine keys. That got the additional security layer resolved. Then as the customer had only one non remote key it would start the van, it however wouldnβt operate the central locking and disarm the alarm. Key was also slightly twisted and tip of key chewed up. So alarm would go off until customer had put the non remote key in ignition and turned ignition on. Not ideal long term. So we set to work on cutting and programming in x1 new remote key. Customer was super relieved and thankful.
Something we would always advise, is to ensure you always have x2 keys at the very least. As to make a key when all the keys are lost is a much bigger expense due whatβs involved to collect all the necessary data to create a key.
Whether youβve locked your keys in the vehicle, need a spare, or lost all your keys, contact Paul for a quote.
