Hi very useful video. I’m having the same problem I’ve had my car in to the Ford garage where they diagnosed the same problem but mine has got a corroded connection that plugs in to the receiver. They have given me the receiver to show me and are saying it needs a new part wiring harness and new receiver that may have to come from Germany with total cost of £515 fitted 😢
Thankyou for your comment. The External receiver was purchased directly for the Ford main dealer and would cost around £100 for a brand new one. Good luck and all the very best
Hi Andy, Fancy doing a new video on a 2015 Ford Focus Zetec Ecoboost, I have similar problem, but in your video you didn't show the technique for getting roof lining down, I'm a bit nervous to try in case I damage anything!!!
Well I sure hoped this would resolve the same issue on my 2013 Escape. New receiver did not fix mine. Mine worked fine until I replaced the car battery. Since then can only start in the emergency fob location. All fuses are good. Both fobs have new batteries. Get the ford keyfree no key detected fault. Tried resetting battery by the jumper method. After starting screen shows 1 mykey and 1 admin key. Start once and get no key fault. Turn off and back on and alarm goes away. I don't know if need locksmith to reprogram fobs. Odd that it shows 1 mykey and 1 admin key. Really scratching my head on this one. This is the only problem I have had with almost 70k miles.
K have a si.ilar fault but it doesn't start with the key in the emergency position and the radi doesnt light up like yours. My recieved if fairly key too. Any ideas??
I have ford Kuga 2012. Code is b2091:60 remote key communication failure. Is it possible to check if same receiver is actually broken before buying a new one?
I have a ford flex with the same problem. For some time i suspected it was the receiver antenna. How did you locate it. I cant find any info online where it should be located. There is a fiesta video that shows its under the center console.
I would recommend reading the codes first to ensure you're replacing the correct part. I spoke to a local friendly Ford Main Dealer mechanic who advised me of the location
Might not be a good idea wrapping it up in plastic as moisture can't escape. Better to use a suitable barrier like silicone or a barrier grease on the plug to stop moisture getting into the plug maybe? Sometimes it may be necessary to to reset the bcm after fitting the receiver. I've found on occasions that the key operates the lot ks but it still says kkey not recognised etc until I reset the bcm(no equipment needed) just look the process up on the tube'.
Hi great video thought it would help us , But our ford grand c max 2016 will have to go to the garage as we couldnt see the antenna, but will tell them thats what we think it is
Hello mate. Great video and work but I can’t seem to find the antenna where you found it. I have the 2016 ford grand cmax which I think is the same model as in the video. I opened up the rear headlining and all I could see was some wiring and components stuck to the roof(none of them looked like the antenna). What should I do?
@@atcarsales Hi mate, turns out it was exactly there but just a bit deeper. Had to take it down to the garage where they put their hands a bit deeper than I went and boom, they found. Still charged me 10 quid for a 30 second job but anyways thank for the video and reply :)
Thank you very much. This was exactly what my issue was. I found one at the salvage yard and it took care of the problem. Thanks again!
Super! Glad to have helped yet another person. All the best
Only video after looking for ages that is actually helpful and to the point. You sir are a gentleman and a scholar👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for your kind words
This issue has been plaguing me for nearly a year thanks for this 👍🏻👍🏻
Only helpful person I found for my issue. Legend
Great to hear 💕
Many thanks for this. I had the same issue when both key fobs stopped working suddenly. Replacing the receiver fixed the issue.
You're welcome!
@@atcarsales hello were is it located on a Ford focus 2015 titanium? Please and ty
@@mikereynolds1981did you find this? From my research, there is one in the boot, one under the arm rest and one under the centre console
@@mikereynolds1981 I have the same issue. Did You manage to find IT?
Thanks so much. I’ve tried everything but never thought of the external receiver
I can’t find this in a 2014 ford edge but thank you sooo much for showing us the resson

Just buy the receiver and try that. No reason to quote for a wiring harness at this stage?
Bro wth why don’t we have these in the states that joint is hard sliding doors like a mini van but not bulky like a mini van
Great video and very helpful. If i buy a used module will i have to reprogram the key fobs i have?
Nope, nice and straight forward.
Thank you for the video but can you please share the link where you bought the external receiver, thank you.

Can you do one on a Ford Focus ST MK2 Facelift
I have the same problem. Ford focus 2017 but there is no code error. Where to look for a fault?
I'm getting the same issue, "Key not detected" only occasionally though.
@@justin7036did you determine a fix?

Sounds more like a faulty key?

Brother my car detects the key but it won't lock or unlock from the fob, i have a ford kuga mk1 2010 with keyless go, any ideea why?
@@sebysebastian7578 sounds like a simple key battery replacement to me. Try a good brand battery
Do you know where the keyless module would be for a Galaxy 2015/16 please? My key gets defected ok but intelligent access doesn’t work. Thanks
Ive tried this on my 13 plate cmax and no luck do you need to remove the codes because i don't have a reader to hand
Best to read the codes before replacing parts but if you have a new receiver then it should be plug & play as per the ending if my video. Good luck 👍
Pls where can I find the location for mobilizer ford focus 2013
Thanks for sharing 👍
2014 Ford focus Titanium central locking works but no key detected in car I am having to put the key in the steering column port......................
I've got same problem with my ford's smax 2013, where would the external receiver b found on the smax?
@@noorkhanfamily376 Usually in the roof lining near the back back of middle ?.
Where was your external receiver?
do you need to programme the reciver or is it plug and play?
Plug & play
Hi great video thought it would help us , But our ford grand c max 2016 will have to go to the garage as we couldnt see the antenna, but will tell them thats what we think it is
Anybody know where is located the external receiver Mondeo MK5?

Did you manage to get it sorted!? The antenna in my video was originally stuck to the roof
