monzg.OR Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Hi: lost a key and suspect foul play as my Tile was physically separated from keys. Have replaced fob with Ebay acquired new one (excellent) and dealer programming the new one. The dealer asked for all existing fobs. Does anyone know if the old fob is now disabled?

plus 3 golfer Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 It should be as dealer should have followed procedures which would remove all "stored" key fob data. What I don't know is if dealer can bypass this reset procedure if a key FOB is being added. But if you told him one FOB is missing, dealer should have reset data.

MitchealWhite Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 Is that possible for a locksmith to remove all the stored key fob data and reset it again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHunter Posted May 16, 2020 Report Share Posted May 16, 2020 Auto locksmith can remove all the stored data with the help of dealership software and reset it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowStorm Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 So we've managed to loose one of our two keys (key start - not push button). Key is $125 + $90 programming at dealer which seems pretty "good" as another dealer wanted almost $400 and a third would have to order the key. Anyway, has anyone used Car Keys Express or something similar? For $99 you get a one-time programmer and a key which they say they can cut from a photo! Does anyone have any experience or thoughts about this option? Also, can more than two keys be created for the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAZ Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Lost key fob for our 2013 C-Max and the key for our 2007 Focus along with house keys all at the same time, a rather lousy day. https://northcoastkeyless.com had fast delivery, detailed instructions and cost far less than dealership. Still had to take fob to a local locksmith ($ 50) for programming, but was able to easily program the Focus key myself. I believe the locksmith would have programmed additional fobs if I had wanted.

IsabellaElizabeth Posted October 7, 2020 Report Share Posted October 7, 2020 Yes, you are right. Locksmith will definitely have new fobs programmed for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
