Mick 1 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I have a 2014 Ford Ranger with only 1 key/remote/immobilizer. Ford quoted mt THB5,000 for the key plus labor to program the unit to the car. I see the same key advertised on Lazada for less than THB1,000. Can anyone tell me if I buy the Lazada unit can this be matched to the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stubuzz Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Yes, it can. However, the chip will probably be a inferior Chinese clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is fine as it is only a spare, but where to get it matched to the car, will Ford still do this for me if I use the Chinese option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stubuzz Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Many of the street key cutters will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you need to program the chip in the key to the car to get it to work, not just cut the key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stubuzz Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 If you have and ELM 327 lead, download FORSCAN and program the key yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kildonan Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Just had a ECU (self bought) fitted to my Mazda Tribute. Local Mazda dealer programmed it, including for the two keys, (one a clone from a keycutter) all for under 1,500 bht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
