Key Cut and Programmed for Less in Ventura County

2014 Ford Expedition Remote head key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Here's what you're actually buying when you pay for a 2014 Ford Expedition key replacement. Three things. The physical key blank with the correct blade profile and remote housing. The precision cut on that blade so it matches your car's lock. And the transponder programming so the PATS system recognizes the new key and lets the engine start. The dealer charges 395 for those three things. I charge around 185.

A customer staying at a hotel in Ventura had her only Ford key stop working. She was on a trip, didn't know any local shops, and the dealer told her to tow it in. Earliest appointment was the next afternoon. Quote was 395 plus the tow.

I met her in the hotel parking lot that same evening. Her remote head key uses a proximity system where the car detects the fob wirelessly. I connected through the OBD port and used my VVDI Key Tool to generate a new key matched to her car's immobilizer. Her fob, FCC ID OUC6000022, has 5 buttons including remote start. I had it working in about 20 minutes.

The blank costs me about $35. The cut is done on my machine in the van. The programming takes about 20 minutes through OBD. Her total was 185. The dealer was charging 395 for the same three things plus making her wait a day and arrange a tow. She thanked me twice and said she'd been dreading the idea of being stuck at the hotel without a car.
