The red master key I was talking about is for older PATS systems found on older Fords, just saying out of interest nothing to do with yours

i'm not trying to complicate the issue, sorry if thats what it looks like.

after reading your post from the other thread (above) you mentioned you just need the 1 key, which is great, then you mentioned you need a paired key, which has probably confused me a wee bit.

but thanks for your input & info


i used to chap in nails for a living, so left the car mechanicing for others
