Second key

Postby 1packabs on Tue Jun 14, 2016 11:26 pm

When I brought my frontera I only got 1 key with the car.
Fortunately it's a remote key so it operates the doors locking on its buttons.
Does anybody know if these keys have a immobiliser chip in them like on the fords.
Or can I simply get a simple key cut to keep as a spare and use in the ignition if required.

Yes you can seperate the blade part from the fob and inside the plastic part of the blade will be the immoboliser chip (be careful as sometimes they can fly out) You can get a new chip but has to be programmed to your car.

Hi,
I have some Frontera keys ( Blanks/uncut ) with immobiliser chips but as stretch said, it will need to be programmed to the car. If you have your security code then its pretty straight forward.

Can also provide replacement remotes / complete keys if needed or parts/programming.
