Transponder Chip

Postby rhythmstick » Wed Feb 23, 2011 9:45 pm

Hi Guys

As you may or may not know, I've made a flip key for the NB, but it requires sacrificing a spare key.

Upon searching, I couldn't find anything about the types of transponders that the keys actually use.

Well, I think I have. This will mean that I can source reeeeally cheap transponders keys!

PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong, or if there is anything to add to this.
98-2001 uses the ID33
The 2002-2004/5 uses the Ford Pats System, the ID8C chip

For the record, the Mazda 3 uses the Ford Pats system too, but uses the 4D chip.

I don't know about older models, but I could probably find out (if they even use them).

Does anyone have anything information contrary to this?

Cheers
