Postby [D1SCNT] » September 14th, 2012, 5:17 pm

hey

well ppl hate me. today on display i believe someone has reached in to my ED and grabbed my key out. as at the end of the day when i went to move it there was no key in it.
anyways if anyone in vic has a ED locking mecho and key il pay decent. atm i cant steer the car due to the lock mecho to line it up for a flat bed or anything.
if anyone can help us please ring me on 0431614977

straight up!!! not a happy camper, i hope its fallen out of my pocket at some point then theres a chance the cleaners have picked it up.
cheers

Drop the column to turn the wheel. It's only 2 bolts in an ED from memory.

It's an easy way out to get it on to a flat bed, that's if the wheels are semi straight in the first place.

The only way to change that barrel now is to get that whole lock off, unless you smash it out in which case you'll damage the lock.

You need the original key turned to get just the barrel out, as you probably already know.

thats pritty much the plan atm.

il bring some tool tomorrow and hack at it.
also by lock mecho i do mean the hole unit not just getting a replacement barrel.
if i can get it home il be happy just they had a dyno there and the dudes running it were going to throw it on the rollers on sunday. il just have to miss out on that opportunity now no real biggy.

Sunny's got it (again). My EA ignition lock seized (the only time it ever broke down) and I had to smash the safety bolts out with a flat head and a hammer. It took probably 20mins. Without smartlock, I drove it home easily.

Sucks that some low lifes would nick a key though :-(

Where was the car on display? Anywhere the kunt can come back and drive the car away?

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.

Dunno if this helps but ..... If you talk to your ford dealer nicely with the vin they can give you the key code.
A key cutter / locksmith can cut the code onto a new key.

This key will start the car.

How do I know this ??? I lost a customer's key once and had to do it !! :oops:

haha good work paul

i always wondered if you could do something like that.
i assume that kind of thing wouldn't work with the standard car key design?
as in a dealer wouldn't have that kind of info on record

So you could copy a cars vin and get it coded for yourself and go back and steal the car or what?

In most cases you have to prove ownership or that you are in legal possesion of the vehicle ie: mechanic working on it.
