Hy-ko 18ford101 Nickel Chip Key Blank, For Ford Vehicles

The Hy-Ko 18FORD101 is a nickel-plated programmable chip key blank designed specifically for Ford vehicle locks. This transponder key contains a built-in computer chip in the head that communicates with your vehicle's security system, ensuring that only properly programmed keys can start your engine. Whether you need a duplicate key, a spare for emergencies, or a replacement for a lost key, this blank provides a reliable solution for Ford vehicle owners.

This chip key blank is waterproof, protecting the internal electronics from moisture and damage during everyday use. The nickel plating offers durability, while the sturdy plastic head provides comfortable handling and grip.
