Ford key types through the years
The key type depends on when your Ford was built. Knowing this helps us pull the right key and quote faster.
If you are unsure, send a photo of your key alongside your model and year and we will work it out from there.
- Older Falcons and work-ute models often use a basic transponder key, a metal key with a chip programmed to the immobiliser.
- Many mid-range Fords, including some Ranger generations, use a remote key or flip key with the remote and transponder paired together.
- Newer Territorys and recent Ranger generations use a proximity or smart key for keyless entry and push-button start.
- The latest Ford platforms can be dealer-only for key programming, and we will tell you honestly if that is the case.
