Ford key and fob replacement in Vancouver

Ford calls its immobiliser PATS, and it has been on the trucks and cars here since the late 1990s. A PATS blade key for an F-150, Escape, Explorer, Ranger or Mustang is $180-$280 cut and programmed. An Intelligent Access proximity fob for the newer trucks, the Bronco and the current Escape is $280-$420. All keys lost starts from $180 and includes reading the PATS data out of the vehicle.

We work from 4105 Macdonald St and reach most Vancouver addresses in 20 to 30 minutes. Nothing is towed and nothing is ordered in. The published bands are on the price list; the car key replacement page carries the same work for every other make.

Ford models, years and key types

The PATS blade key to Intelligent Access cutover, model by model.

F-150

PATS blade key on the older trucks, Intelligent Access on the newer ones. The F-150 is also where a failed ignition actuator rod gets blamed on the key.

Escape

PATS blade key for most of its life, proximity on the current car. The Escape is our most common Ford key call in Vancouver.

Explorer and Edge

PATS blade key early, Intelligent Access on the newer push-button trucks. Programmed at the kerb through the OBD port.

Ranger, Bronco and Maverick

The returning Ranger, the Bronco and the Maverick are Intelligent Access only. All-keys-lost is handled at the vehicle.

Mustang and Transit

Mustang moves from PATS blade to proximity; Transit runs the blade key and is a common fleet rekey.

What a Ford key costs, dealer or locksmith

Published figures only. A dealer PATS key still has to be programmed at the car, so a dead vehicle means a tow first.

PATS transponder key

$180-$280 cut and written to the immobiliser.

Intelligent Access fob

$280-$420 for the push-button F-150, Explorer, Bronco, Escape and Mustang.

Spare beside a working key

$180-$240 blade, $300-$420 proximity.

All keys lost

From $180, including the PATS read and voiding the key that went missing.

Service call

Standard hours carry a $75 service call. After 5 pm the labour rate is $150 to 9 pm, then $250/hour through to 8:30 am.

PATS refusals and the F-Series ignition actuator

A key the truck will not accept

PATS refusals on the older F-150 and Escape show as a crank with no start and a theft light that will not settle. Often the key is fine and the module has lost it. We reprogram at the vehicle before anyone sells you hardware.

The ignition actuator rod

On older F-Series trucks the actuator rod between the lock and the switch is a known failure. The key turns, the truck does nothing, and no number of new keys will change that. We replace it at the kerb. Cylinder and switch work is on the ignition repair page.

Tibbe keys

The old round Tibbe key is obsolete and most shops will not touch it. We still cut and program them when one turns up.

Lincoln shares the PATS platform; that page is here.
