2006 Lincoln LS Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Sunset Hills is the kind of neighborhood where the driveways are long and the nearest Lincoln dealer feels even longer. A gentleman there called me on a Saturday morning. His 2006 LS had been sitting for about a week because the remote head key had stopped working and, somewhere in the middle of troubleshooting it himself, the car ended up completely locked with no way in.

He had already tried a new battery. He had watched a couple of videos. By the time he called, he was pretty calm about it, almost resigned. He said the dealer told him to have it towed in and they would look at it sometime the following week.

I pulled into his driveway with the LS remote head key blank already loaded on the bench in my van. First I got into the car mechanically, no drama. Then I decoded the cut from the lock, matched the blade, and got into the vehicle. From there I connected through the OBD port, cleared the lost key situation, and registered the new remote head key to the immobilizer. The 2006 LS has a security timing sequence built into the programming process, so there is a wait period that is just part of the job. I walked him through it while it ran.

When the key turned and the car started in his own driveway, he looked genuinely surprised, like he had expected this to be a whole production. He asked me how I was able to come to him instead of the other way around. I told him that is just how I work. The car does not move, I do.

He paid a fraction of what the dealer had quoted for the same outcome, plus no tow bill, plus it was done before noon on a Saturday.
