:bang: Huy guy's and girls anybody help. I have just bought 2.0 hgt without the RED key just 2 blue keys. i have an ecu and RED key plus 2 BLUE keys and the codebox and the ring that goes round ingnition barrel. i have been told i can change the codebox and transponder ring and leave my ecu in is this true. help please. thanks craig
 
you dont need the ring aerial that goes around the ignition switch (unless yours is broken) because any aerial will work with any key.

you will need to fit the codebox and matching ecu. then swap the code chips round on the blue keys (so your blue keys will work locks and immob).
now to get the red key working your locks you need to get a new blank cut and replace it with the one on the red key.

please say you arent doing this just so you can have a red key, there's really no need to worry about a missing red key, the chance of it ever been a problem is very very very small as long as you have 2 working blue keys. it is only once you lose all your blue keys that a red key is critical.
 
hi jug yes i was trying to get a red key i keep hearing from people saying never to buy a fiat without a red key so was a bit worried. cheers for that.
