  • Keys and alarm fobs

    Hi all, on my focus all I have is a normal plastic Ford key with no buttons and an RS fob that works the alarm. What keys am I supposed to have? What style and is it possible to get a second complete replacement RS alarm fob?
    Thanks

    This is what the car came with from factory, one alarm fob, a Ford key with buttons to open door, boot etc and a basic Ford key!

    It’s the key with buttons I need them thanks, these have to be coded to the factory alarm don’t they?

      I may be wrong but I don’t think the key with buttons has anything to with the alarm, I sure someone will be along soon to confirm!

    You need a locksmith that can copy the key buy you can code the new key yourself.

        Sounds like you have the original plain Key as shown in Marathonman72's image.

        You are missing the remote key for door entry and locking. The remote key is also used to double lock your car whereas the GT alarm remote will only activate standard locking and unlocking.

        Here is a link to a genuine remote part of the key - Genuine Ford 1233541 Transit Connect Mk1 Mondeo Mk3 Focus Mk1 Remote Key Fob

        Here is a link to a genuine key blank - Genuine Brand New Focus Mk1 / Fiesta Mk5 Key Uncut

        Coding instructions can be found in the Focus Owner's Guide from page 95-100

          On this subject. I was aware that the RHD RS's had an extra alarm fitted with a separate fob, which wasn't on Eu LHD ones. But mine never came with a 'normal' key. I got two keyfobs that activate the door locks and double locks, also activate the original focus alarm and immobiliser.
          well, we learn something new every day.

            The normal key has a blue insert and as far as I know it’s for coding the keys with buttons.
