- A video tutorial on how to unlock, open and start a 2017 - 2020 Ford Fusion that has a dead key battery or a remote key fob that isn't working. There is an emergency key located in the bottom of your Ford Fusion remote key fob. You will remove the key from the remote key fob and use it to unlock and open the Ford Fusion driver's door. After opening the door, you will then need to start your Ford Fusion by placing the key fob in the backup slot in the cupholder. Replace the dead battery in your remote key fob as soon as possible.
This tutorial will show you how to open, unlock and start a vehicle with a dead key battery or remote key fob that isn't working on the following Ford models:
2017 Ford Fusion
2018 Ford Fusion
2019 Ford Fusion
2020 Ford Fusion

You're welcome!! Glad it helped
Once the vehicle is started you can remove the fob from the console, but if you need to restart you will have to put it back in the console. I have used mine without removing the rubber mat but that may not always work.
Thank you for this video! Saved me some serious headaches!! Great vid, short and straight to the point!
You're Welcome! Glad it helped
Thank you !!! Great info!
You're Welcome!
Saved my morning! Thank you
You're welcome! Glad it helped
When I bought my 2018 Ford Fusion Hybrid SE, I tried out the emergency key and I regretted that. The piece on the door handle, you put the key in too works, but putting it back on, was a problem. In short, it kept falling off. I check the part and the track it clips back on too, no damage was showing.
I was lucky all 3 times to notice it falling off and thankfully didn't run over it (or anyone else), and recovered it. The only solution that worked for me because the dealership was going to gladly ask 128 bucks for a replacement and paint matching, I applied one pin drop of super glue on top to keep it in place. This was done in 2019 and still holding today. When the time comes to use it again, a simple swipe of my utility knife (because I carry one around all the time in case of emergencies and I work in a warehouse), will free it.
Honestly, Ford could have engineered this better, than making a flimsy part that comes off so easy. Having it slide back, and close by means of a groove track and springs could solve this super easily.
So here's a video idea. So how do you open the Ford Fusion's trunk, if the car battery dies? Let's say you get in with the emergency key. Well you still have no power to operate the electric button in the cabin or on the trunk to open it? Is the only solution to pull down the back seats, crawl inside, and pull the emergency release cord?
I am glad that I found this video I did not know this thank you for posting this I appreciate it!!

Thanks for the vid. What idiot thought that this was the best way to start the car?! Removing part of the cup holder to start it?! Wtf?! But thanks for showing this!
You're Welcome!
Thank you 🙏🏾
You're Welcome!
Thank you!!!
You're Welcome!
Awesome!
Thanks!
Also the car itself will tell you if you need to change your battery in the fob. I think it'll tell on start up in the cluster
Good to know. Thank you!
You're Welcome!
I actually knew this already. My problem is that neither of my key fobs work to lock/unlock the car anymore. I suspect some components in the center console may have gotten wet from water dripping off drink cups I've had in the cup holder. I have to open the door with the keypad on the door, or I could use the emergency key that's more inconvenient. I'm pretty sure the fobs aren't broken because I can start and drive the car as normal after I get the door unlocked.
Thanks👍
You're Welcome!
My key fob just started doing the not detected and restart now or key is needed thank you for the helpful information on what I need to do now for when the battery dies but i am looking for a new battery for the key fob now
Question please. What if the energy battery is dead in the trunk. Let's say i replace that battery but is been sitting for a week so the hibrid is also dead. How do u star the vehicle even with the new battery in the trunk replace
Thanks just bought a used one
You're Welcome!
Dang it! I wish I knew about that slot underneath the car lock cover before I got a bunch of scratches. 😂
I just found would seem to be an abandoned 2017 fusion parked on the side of the highway and I noticed there was a pack of Newports in the center console and all the doors were locked so I proceeded to make my own Ford fusion key out of a blank Volkswagen key that I had and thanks to this video I now have myself a nice Ford and a new pack of menthol 100s and I don't even smoke cigarettes anymore but I figure I might be able to get some money out of the cat on this thing
Wht if u put the key in the key thing but it will not Turn to the right and it Doesn't want to turn and I have a lot of disk on it.What should we do
So how can we Charge a remote cup
Is it like a weight sensor or something? If it's dead, how does that work
the key fob has a chip inside of it that the vehicle can read if it is held is the correct place - even if the fob has no power
i have a 2019 ford fusion i tried you steps but the vehicle wont start?
My GPS was working and now it won't. I did reset it . But now has a logo with no GPS left bottom .
So I guess I’m in question if placing the fob facing forward this way like In the video as you show, recharges the battery in the fob? Because my fob hasn’t been working and I lost my second backup fob a while back. Now I’m wondering if I need to go and replace the fob, have battery replaced in it or what are my options?
No - that does not charge the battery in the fob. The first thing to try would be to replace the battery. There is a link to how to change the battery in that style fob here th-cam.com/video/4XRpLpMXq8U/w-d-xo.html
I am looking for a video that will show me to activate my keyless entry. On my Explorer I can walk to the car and the door unlocks with the Key fob in my pocket. I would like to have my fusion do the same.
Wow! Great to know!! Definitely needed this video! Kinda weird that you have to put the fob in the cup holder but hey, I’m not gonna question technology! Thanks for the video!
You're Welcome! Glad it helped
This happened to me but my dash and gear shift and radio is pitch black and doesn’t work at all idk what todo. I bought a new battery and everything still nada

What battery do I need to buy for my 2018 Ford fusion key fob?
my car is saying i need to replace the battery in the key fob
CR2450
Cuando me acerco al vehículo con la llave no se abre solo alguien sabe que puede ser ?
can you unlock the trunk like that also?
I can't remember if there is key cylinder on there trunk or not. if there is a key cylinder then the emergency key should work in it as it is the only key.
Anything on a new Ford Explorer?
You can find the video for the explore here th-cam.com/video/PlgYFRQpYig/w-d-xo.html
What do I do if both thr key and battery are dead
you can still use the key to open the vehicle but if the vehicle battery is also dead then the alarm will not go off when you open the door
So can the same emergency key open anyone's Ford Infusion? Today after I got off work the piece on my car was taking off. Seems to me like someone was definitely trying to steal it.
No - the emergency needs to be cut to the vehicle
What if my car doesn’t start how will I stop the alarm from going off
open the hood and unhook the battery
I find it difficult to slide off the piece of the door handle. Forget it if it is dark. And it takes me at least ten minute to lift the cup holder liner! The batteries are sold in two packs, so I put one in the key fob, and carry the other with me. I will take a regular key any day. We carry around key fobs, think they are wonderful. All the while the fobs contain keys. I find it foolish.
How do you lock the car with a dead key fob?
The emergency key will lock the drivers door as well as unlock it
This didnt work for mine. I have a 2017. When I unlock the car, no lights come on at all.
it sounds like the battery in the vehicle itself may be dead
@@PYR-Auto yes sir it was
My emergency key wont go in wtf
