Spare keysRegain Entry Into Your Ford Fiesta
Lost, snapped or stolen your Ford Fiesta key? It stops everything — the school run, the commute, the shift you cannot be late for. And because the Fiesta is Britain’s best-selling car of its generation, a lot of people find out the hard way that a modern Fiesta key is not a five-minute cut-a-copy job.
Take the Fiesta to a main dealer and you are usually looking at recovering the car (the Fiesta is immobilised without a coded key), a booking days away, and a bill that includes the key, the programming and the recovery. A general locksmith with a key-cutting machine cannot help either: the Fiesta’s PATS immobiliser will not accept a key that has not been electronically married to the car.
Lock City is a mobile auto locksmith that specialises in Ford. We come to you with the dealer-level software and the right transponders for your exact Fiesta, cut the HU101 blade on-site and code the key to your immobiliser at the roadside — no towing, no dealer wait. Every Fiesta key replacement and key programming job is guaranteed. Call 07967 097 899, Monday to Friday, 8am–5:30pm.
Ford Fiesta Keys: Types & What You Need
Knowing which Fiesta you have tells us exactly which key, chip and tool the job needs — and whether it is a quick spare or a full all-keys-lost. Here is the real breakdown by generation:
Fiesta Mk6 / Mk7 (2008–2017)
- Blade: HU101 high-security laser blade.
- Transponder: Texas 4D63 / ID63, later 80-bit PATS.
- Remote: three-button fixed-head remote (unlock / lock / boot) on higher trims; a plain transponder key on base Studio/Style cars.
- All-keys-lost: programmed by OBD at the roadside — no need to remove any modules.
Fiesta Mk8 (2017–present)
- Remote: switchblade / flip remote as standard.
- Keyless: keyless smart proximity (KeyFree) using Hitag Pro (ID49) on ST-Line, Titanium X, Vignale and ST trims.
- All-keys-lost: still roadside-programmable with the right software; keyless AKL takes a little longer.
The three jobs we see most on the Fiesta
- A worn flip-blade that no longer folds out or turns cleanly in the door.
- A “dead key” that is really just a flat CR2032 fob battery — a two-minute fix, not a new key.
- Immobiliser de-sync after a battery change or a jump-start, where the car cranks but will not fire.
Note: exact keyless-vs-flip cut-over depends on the specific trim and build date [verify against your VIN]. Read our Ford key fob programming guide or just tell us your reg and we will confirm the key type before we come out.

Ford Fiesta Key Replacement — Your Questions Answered
How much is a replacement Ford Fiesta key in Bristol?
It depends on the generation and whether it is a spare or all-keys-lost. A spare transponder or flip key for a Mk6/Mk7 Fiesta is the cheapest tier; a keyless smart key for a Mk8 ST-Line or an all-keys-lost job costs more because of the fob and the programming involved. Give us your registration and we will quote the exact figure before we travel — no surprises.
Can you programme a Fiesta key at the roadside, or does it have to go to Ford?
At the roadside. The vast majority of Fiestas — Mk6, Mk7 and Mk8 — are programmed on-site by OBD with our dealer-level software. There is no need to recover the car to a dealer or wait days for an appointment.
My Fiesta key still turns but the buttons do nothing — do I need a new key?
Usually not. On the Fiesta this is almost always a flat CR2032 fob battery or a worn micro-switch, not a failed transponder. We can replace the battery or repair the remote for a fraction of a new key. If the flip blade is worn, we can re-cut or re-shell it.
I’ve lost every key to my Fiesta — can you still help?
Yes. All-keys-lost is one of our most common Fiesta jobs. We generate and code a brand-new key to your immobiliser at the roadside, so you are not paying for recovery. See our lost car keys service for how it works.
Does a keyless Fiesta need different equipment to a normal key?
Yes. The keyless (KeyFree) Fiesta uses a Hitag Pro smart fob and a proximity system, so it needs the current software and the correct smart-key blank. We carry both, so we can handle keyless ST-Line and Vignale Fiestas as well as standard flip-key cars.
