2006 Lincoln LS
Car Key Without the Dealership Trip in Ventura County

Q: How long does programming take once you are at my car?

If you have a working key and need a spare, the actual programming on most Lincoln models takes about 10 to 20 minutes per key once we are connected. A Town Car owner had a locksmith handle a key and two fobs in minutes. An MKX owner was done in about 20 minutes including the cut. If all keys are lost, older PATS systems enforce three 15-minute security cycles for a minimum of 45 minutes. Newer smart key systems are faster once security access is obtained. Either way, you are looking at well under two hours from the time we arrive.

Q: Can you make a key faster than the dealer?

Significantly faster. One MKX owner had a key shop handle the full cut and program in about 20 minutes. A Town Car locksmith handled a key and two fobs in minutes. Lincoln dealers quote up to an hour for a full reprogram set because of the Ford security module wait times, and that is after you get an appointment, which one Aviator owner said took a full month. We carry Lincoln and Ford blanks on every call and handle the entire job in a single same-day visit.

Q: How many buttons does the 2006 Lincoln LS key have?

Your 2006 Lincoln LS key has 3 buttons. The button count helps confirm exactly which fob your vehicle uses, since Lincoln uses different remotes across trim levels and model years. When you call us, having this detail ready helps us verify the right key before we head to your location so there are no mismatches when we arrive.

Q: What if I am stranded and need help right now?

Call us immediately. We treat stranded Lincoln owners as priority calls and aim to be at your location within about 30 minutes. A 2023 Aviator owner got stranded when their Phone As A Key system locked out after three failed start attempts and they had to Uber home to retrieve the physical fob. Lincoln's dealer path means towing the car in during business hours and waiting for an appointment. We come to you, handle the full key replacement on site, and get you back on the road in one visit.

2006 Lincoln LS Remote head key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

I come to your GPS pin. You drop a pin where the car is, I drive to that pin, and the job happens right there. Parking lot, estate driveway, country road, trailhead. The car doesn't move.

An elderly customer at a rural property outside Thousand Oaks had lost the only key to her 2006 Lincoln LS. The nearest Lincoln dealer was over an hour away with a multi-day wait. Her car was in the gravel driveway and she had no way to get it anywhere. Her son found me online and called.

I drove out with everything for her LS loaded. I used my FO38 Lishi to pick and decode the door lock, cut two fresh transponder keys, then connected through OBD with my IM608. Ford's PATS system requires a 10-minute security wait before it accepts new keys, so I walked her through what was happening while the timer ran. Her key, FCC ID CWTWB1U793, was a 3-button remote that I built from scratch in her driveway.

Her car started in the same spot. Total was around 185. Dealer would have charged 395 plus a tow from a location no flatbed wanted to drive to.

2006 Lincoln LS Same-Day Service FAQ

How mobile key service works

What if I need a Lincoln key after hours or on the weekend?▼

Call us. Lincoln dealer service departments typically operate Monday through Friday with limited Saturday hours and no Sunday service. Lincoln's own key replacement instructions require you to visit the retailer in person during business hours. If you lose your only Lincoln key on a Friday night, the dealer cannot help until Monday at the earliest, and that assumes they have an open appointment slot. We work nights and weekends because that is when most people discover they need a key.
