Flip Key - Ford

How to use the Ford Flip Key meant for the Mk4 Mondeo on your Late Mk2/Mk3 Mondeo.

Items Needed

1 Ford Flip Key 1 Blank cut to your current key 1 Replacement pats chip

Method

Separate remote part from folding part of key.

Split the plastic part of the key to pieces but you can drift out the pin without doing so. (If you half unfold the key you will see the blade retaining pin. This can be knocked out using a small drift.) That is how Ford fit the blade to the key in the first place.

Take your new blank key and remove all of the plastic, we are only after the blade shank.

Re-profile the end of the new key shank so it's the same as the shank that you have removed. You may need to slim down the sides of the shank so it will fit. One in place refit the pin that you took out earlier, if you are having problems you can use super glue to hold the blade in as well.

Now we need to remove the "old" pats chip as this is no longer required. Once this is out, we need to make space for the "new" pats chip. If you look on the other half of the plastic part you see where you can put the chip, you will need to cut/remove the webs to make space for the chip.
