Car Forum / Fiat Cars / July 2004New key for Punto
I have an "R" reg Punto 60S. when I bought it, it only came with one key. Local key place said they could duplicate the chip O..K. but the key is so worn, that the duplicating process only duplicates the wear. As the key wears more, It is becoming more difficult to operate the locks. Is there any way to reproduce a like-new key pattern before the key becomes unusable,or will I end up having to replace all the locks? SJD Steven Dehne was zeer hard aan het denken : > I have an "R" reg Punto 60S. when I bought it, it only came with one key. > Local key place said they could duplicate the chip O..K. but the key is so > worn, that the duplicating process only duplicates the wear.

Does it mean that everybody usually has 1 red and 2 blue keyes? I've got only 2 blue! The dealer didn't want to give me red key or is it possible that they didn't get red key from FIAT at all? How to be sure what is going on?! > >You don't have a red master key? > > Does it mean that everybody usually has 1 red and 2 blue keyes? I've > got only 2 blue!

I bought the car second hand from a local dealer who works from his house. I really don't know much about chipped keys, red, blue, or otherwise. If I have tp replace all the locks. how does that affect the chipped key, and what would it cost?

I bought new Fiat Punto and get only 2 blue keys. >>> You don't have a red master key? >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >I bought new Fiat Punto and get only 2 blue keys. Same thing! > >>> You don't have a red master key? > >> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Same thing! On MK I series Punto there are three keys: one red master key and two blue keys. The red master key is used for programming the other two blue keys. On MK II series Punto (2000 - ....) there are only two blue keys. At least, this was the case with my Punto's. I have had both series, and still own a Punto MK II today. Greetz. |
