With FORScan, you can request an Extended License Agreement and program for PATS. That’s said, you may need to erase all known, and do a fresh programming...

There is no need to stress about the keys as local auto locksmith experts can also make it for you.

Hi Matt.
In the past if you had the blanks and a key cutter machine , you could make all the keys you wanted.
Today Just about all vehicles have security systems that will not allow a vehicle to run or even start unless the key , which has to be coded to the vehicle, has been coded.That info usually requires a special programming tool and/or access to "As built" info. Some systems will prevent the starter from operating and some will not allow fuel or fuel injectors to work.. If you have some other info, we would like to hear from you, thanks.

Definitely, special programming tool is needed to do this task and no locksmith has such tools at all.
