Programming a Ford key fob for push button systems

  • This video was made for a 2017 ford fusion. However the process works with any of the intelligent keys where you use the push button start system for the 2017 and up Ford models. Below is a step-by-step process for how to program Additional key fobs. You can read the instructions or watch the video.
    1. You must first have two programed keys and all of the keys have to be in the vehicle.
    2. Remove the top portion of the keychain so just the remote is able to sit inside the pocket.
    3. Locate the pocket in your vehicle, refer to your owners manual for the location. They are usually found in the center console of the vehicles.
    4. Insert your first programed key fob into the pocket. Press the start button wait five seconds. Press the start stop button. Remove the key from the pocket.
    5. Insert your second programed key fob into the pocket. Press the start button wait five seconds. Press the start stop button. Remove the key from the pocket.
    6. Place the unprogrammed key into the pocket. Press and hold the start button until the horn chirps and the hazard lights flash.
    7. Place your foot on the brake and start the vehicle by pushing the start stop button. A message should display on the screen that says key program successful. If not it will say key program unsuccessful and you will need to repeat the process.
    I did this video Because of many poor videos and bad information that I found when trying to program these myself. I hope you found it helpful and thank you very much.

    Man all the online instructions I saw never mentioned holding the start button when programming the 3rd key. You my man are a lifesaver because I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. Thank you!

    This works like a charm. 2021 Ford Escape.
    For those having issues, the buttons should be face down, and accessory OFF when you put the key in the pocket. Push and release button THEN count to 5. Then push and release button and count to 5 again. Then swap to 2nd programmed fob and repeat. When you swap third fob in and hold the button the message showing success will pop up around 3 seconds in. It will actually say that for the next two start cycles(at least it did in my car ).

    These are the best instruction around for Mustang. Most forget things like removing the key. You have to do these steps like you know what you are doing - one right after the other, no pauses. You got to do it smoothly. Take the old one out, and immediately pop in the new one. IMMEDIATELY press and hold the ignition. You got like 2 seconds to press the break. Keep your eyes on the dashboard, cause you will get message like "successful program key" , the signal blinker when in program mode, etc .. Thanks a million.

    Thank you... These are the instructions Ford dealers don't want you to know. 2012 Escape Owners manual only show the key code, not how to program a 3rd key 🗝. Dealer quoted me $400 with a new key or $130 if I provided it. It took all of 5 minutes to program #3.
    Thank you! 👍

      The key should only run you around $150 to 170 each. I agree it's insanely expensive, but it's what the charge currently is. These prices over time will come down as new models are introduced, but for the next few years they are going to be very pricey. I have two newer Fords I keep four sets of keys in my house, that way if I lose one I can always reprogram another one. With the new price of keys it took me a few months to save up to buy them.

It’s a 2020 F150 push to start. Watched your’s and you were the only one I watched that said push and HOLD on the last key fob. That did it! It’s programmed all for $29. Thanks again!

      You have to have two programmed keys to program an additional key. $200 is a bit steep for that service. Many locksmiths can program keys, and prices vary. I would caution trying to program any key that is not OEM or comes from China. I have seen several not program then you are out a programming fee and still need a key.

    Thank you Cody for making up this video. I have a 2015 Ford Explorer with the intelligent keys. The unfortunate thing for me is that I don't have two keys I only have one. There must be some trick to be able to program an extra key with only one original. I know Ford probably said that you must have both keys but my experience has been that information from the dealers is sometimes not correct. So with my 2015 Explorer I just thought I'd ask where you got your information from so that I can do a little bit of delving into the two key issue.
    Thank you for taking the time to do this and helping people out

    • @Cody-Blues
      @Cody-Blues  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately to make an additional you have to have to programmed keys. There's no trick or work around that is just how the system is designed. The keys are part of the anti-theft system in order to encode the system correctly you have to have two keys. Having worked around other manufacturers Fords is a little harder than others to do.

If it has a door code ask them to give you that as well as it is right there in the computer system when they're programming.

    I lost one fob. I only have one. I purchased a replacement on the web. Is there away to program the new fob without having two original fobs? I’m afraid the dealer will require me to purchase one from them in order for me to have the two fobs I need.
    Thank you

      You need to go to a locksmith or a dealer. It should not cost more than $50 to $75. I highly recommend once you have two program keys follow the procedure for an additional. That way if you happen to lose one you can always make another as you will have two keys.

    Procedure does not work, owners manual (pg.69) says buttons should be up in the slot, not down on all the fobs, yet still does not program third remote, another video said press and hold the start button for the 3rd unprogrammed fob until the horn beeps, that never happened, and still didn't program. Even checked to make sure battery was 3 volts. So not sure what's up with this remote procedure.

    • @Cody-Blues
      @Cody-Blues  ปีที่แล้ว

      Sometimes it's a little tricky to get it time just right. I have had instances however where they just don't program it has to be taken into a dealer or to a locksmith. FYI I'm a service manager for a Ford dealer, and that is the procedure straight from Ford that I've had work on many vehicles. Again, not all take. I don't have a good reason as to why but sometimes we have to bring them into the shop and program them.

I feel like I was just trying to be scammed into spending money at their dealership. If someone knows if its possible to reprogram a used key please let me know. If I'm able to get a used key programmed to my car, I will be marching my ass into the Ford dealership to let them know

      If they are the correct part number they should program to your car regardless. I really hate it when dealerships try to take advantage of people. I'm a service manager for Ford, I work at dealership. It's part of the reason why I put that video together was to help people out. If they came from the same year same make same model and they're the exact same remote yes they will program. Many locksmiths have the capability of programming these keys now. Reach out to one and see if they can do it for you. Realistically it shouldn't cost you more than $50 to $100 to do this the process it literally takes 30 to 45 minutes. Sometimes Ford's IDS system likes to lock up I can take a little longer, but that's not the customer's fault.

      Sadly when you purchase a vehicle it is as is. That is something you need to definitely negotiate into the contract in writing before you ever make the purchase. My recommendation is get with a Ford dealer in your area, have them give you a quote as to what it would cost for the key and to reprogram it. These keys are expensive if you consider your car will not run without them you need make sure you have two functioning keys. For me personally I keep for 1 for my spouse, myself and two spares. I do this with every vehicle I own.

      Sorry for the late reply, TH-cam is horrible about notifying me of messages, I have to go into studio and seek them out. You would have to take that to a dealer most likely to be reprogrammed. If it's the original key with the vehicle the keyless entry features made out work but it should start the car. If this is the case I would install a battery in the remote to get those features working again. However if this is a key that is not programmed to the car it will have to go to a dealer. I've said this in many of my threads We charge $50 to program those keys I think a fair price in today's market is somewhere between $50 and $90 in labor any more than that find another dealer.
