Why do my ford keys work in 01 Silverado and not the 04?

They came out of a ford, but they look like ford ranger keys. I don't understand why they work on my friends 01 Silverado and not my 04?

If they do work in your friends Chevy they aren't Ranger keys, GM uses a completely different keyway. Or… His ignition switch is completely worn out.

  • Why do my cooling fans not work sometimes? 2003 Ford Focus. The cooling fans usually work when they need to, but sometimes they don't which causes the car overheats. I've replaced the entire cooling fan assembly including the resister and a resister connected that was burned up. I'm still having the same issue. It happens when I drive around in the heat for a while. I've also replaces the thermostat and the temperature gauge with no luck.
