Dropping the video today!

I started to lishi ford connects and I always pick 8/10 but when I get to say 5 my lishi tool bends a lot when I try to pick and I get scared. I hear you say “counter rotate” I guess you are letting go a tad bit. Any other advice for an up and coming locksmith.

If you’re bending it you’re using to much tension

Lock codes if your US based works well. If you’re not in the US you’re better off with insta code

usually end up taking these locks apart. These have always been hard for me to pick and read consistently.

They don’t always read accurately. I knew something was up with 3. If I’d just use the one up option I wouldn’t of had to pick it twice.

@@BoredLockpicker I try to go for whatever is the shallowest read because you can always cut deeper on these.

I wanted my guys to at least attempt Lishi's on the road but we are so busy we just use Nafta and pass the charge on to the customer.

codesmithing is one way to do it for sure.

I use lishi's a lot to unlock cars too instead of wedging peoples doors out. there's definitely a learning curve with them though.

@@BoredLockpicker We are running about 100 automotive calls per week. We have to be good but also quick. We use Access Tools probably about 95% of the time and a slim jim on the up and down buttons. If you let the air out of the bags while still in the door that really minimizes any damage. Honda's and Jeeps are the sometimes exceptions. They bend but easy to bend back. I have to borrow that line Codesmithing. :) I'm old school and still enjoy taking things apart and I myself like Lishi's but my guys run most (99.99%) of the calls so if they don't want to use them I can't force them. Doing them in a climate controlled office is also very different than doing it on the car, calls holding, hot Fl sun and or in the rain with the customer breathing down your neck. We have a guy down here who has a perfect situation. He doesn't do any road calls. He has a bay and has every car towed into him. He does all the exotic stuff nobody else can and wants to do as far as key makes.

@@scotts4125I feel like I could get the code from a lishi faster than Nastf in most cases. Maybe the only exception would be gm39 or some b111 that read sloppy.

@@johnholding107 We had a Maserati this week that wouldn't Lishi. We ended up pulling the door lock. We know another locksmith who does mostly high end and he said it was easy. One of my guys took the door lock to him to show us how easy it was. lol He failed as well. We ended up taking the plug out. Lishi's have there place like anything but you always need a plan B and C. NASTF is a major investment and a time waster but it does work as long as a lock wasn't changed.

I might buy some Lishi tools eventually, just in case I need to make a new key for a lock. Having the necessary tool to figure out the bitting code can make the process that much less intense in the long run, especially with how many more ways to lose a key become a part of our lives every day.

You can always record your key codes then you would have them. But you would still need a way to program the key to the vehicle.

@@ColtonRMagby you can record the bitting from those keys too just in case. but you're right lishi doesnt make tubular picks. I have three different brands. one of them usually gets the job done. if not they get the roto-pick and replaced but that's extremely rare
