Transponder Chip
Posted: 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
