Ford Car Key Replacement & Programming with FDRS
Mobile Ford replacement and spare keys, lost-key recovery and key programming, with genuine Ford FDRS for supported manufacturer-level procedures.
FORD REPLACEMENT & SPARE KEYS
Need a Ford Replacement or Spare Key?
Mobile Ford key cutting and programming for supported cars and vans, including spare keys, replacement keys and all-keys-lost situations. The programming route is matched to the exact vehicle, from established Ford systems to newer protected platforms requiring manufacturer-level procedures.
Ford PATS, Immobiliser and Module Programming
Ford’s Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) controls coded-key authorisation on many Ford vehicles. Ford FDRS provides the manufacturer diagnostic route for supported newer vehicles where applicable. With the required vehicle support and authorised access, work can include PATS and immobiliser programming, BCM programming/configuration and other control-module procedures. Diagnosis comes first; a warning message does not by itself mean a module needs repair or replacement.
Some newer Ford vehicles use newer, more tightly protected BCM and immobiliser architectures where the familiar aftermarket key-programming route is no longer available. For these vehicles, OEM Key Specialists can use the appropriate official Ford diagnostic and security route where supported and authorised, rather than attempting to bypass the vehicle's intended security process.
Our Ford capability is not limited to keys. We can also carry out supported BCM, ECU and ABS module programming, configuration and replacement-module procedures using manufacturer-level diagnostic functions where applicable.

Ford Key Not Detected, No Key Detected or Not Working?
If your Ford shows a Key Not Detected or No Key Detected message, an immobiliser warning, does not recognise the key, the key fob or remote has stopped working, the key will not turn, or a keyless-system fault is present, the cause can be with the key or the vehicle and should be diagnosed rather than assumed.
Where applicable, we can assess the key and relevant security systems before carrying out the appropriate key, PATS, immobiliser or module programming where required.
FORD CARS & CROSSOVERS
Ford Fiesta, Focus, Kuga, Puma & Ranger Keys
Supported Ford replacement-key, spare-key and immobiliser work can include Fiesta, Focus, Kuga, Puma, Ranger, Mustang Mach-E and other Ford models. Contact us with the registration or VIN so we can confirm the correct key and programming route.
REAL FORD KEY PROGRAMMING WORK
2019 Ford Fiesta — All Keys Lost in Bracknell
Following an all-keys-lost situation on this 2019 Ford Fiesta, we supplied and programmed two genuine Ford keys using Ford FDRS and the appropriate manufacturer programming procedure. The mobile work was completed in Bracknell, with both replacement keys tested after programming.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions
Why does my Ford say Key Not Detected?
A Key Not Detected message can be caused by the key or by the vehicle's recognition/security system. Diagnosis should establish which side of the system is responsible before programming or replacing parts.
Can you program a Ford key if all keys are lost?
For supported Ford vehicles, yes. The procedure depends on the model, generation and security system, so we first identify the correct route from the vehicle details.
Can you carry out Ford PATS programming?
PATS and immobiliser programming is available for supported Ford vehicles using the appropriate diagnostic and security procedure.
Do you use genuine Ford FDRS?
Yes. Genuine Ford FDRS is used for supported newer Ford vehicles where the manufacturer diagnostic or programming route requires it.
