Ford puma keys required.

[simon mk2]

Just purchased a ford puma r reg 1998, Only just realised that I only have one key coded to the ECU and you require two I belive on this year, the key has red plastic insert.

do you know how i can get another key programed without taking it to ford?

can i get a set of keys and the transponder reader around the barrel or will it also nead an ecu?

any help will be good!

AFAIK you need to go to Ford if you only have one key, once you have more you can program them yourself.

I bought the blades for the keys on eBay and then picked up the section with buttons from other sellers and breakers. The chap selling the blades even cut them based on the number Ford give for their keys, they work fine in the locks but still need setting up, I just can't bring myself to spend £65 having this done. Do you have the code with the red key? Mine came on a plastic keyring.

There are the ones I have, IR keys I think?



If anyone knows of anywhere that can do them for less in the Yorks area and for the older style 2-button keys then I'm keen to know more.

Once you get 2 keys you can program a few more yourself up to a max of 4:

1. Turn Ignition switch to Position I and back to 0 as soon as the PATS LED in the clock lights (The system is now ready for programming, to a maximum time limit of 30 seconds)

2. Remove Key from Ignition, hold it towards the Interior Light, and press and hold the Single Arrow. Wait until the light on the Key flashes, then press the Double Arrow 3 times, release the Single Button

3. Both LEDs (Key & Clock) should flash to acknowledge programming is successful

4. To exit learn Mode, turn Ignition to II and then 0


I know this is no help but it might be one day
