1. Insert the first previously programmed key into the ignition and turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position (maintain ignition in the ON position for at least one
second, but no more than 10 seconds).
2. Turn ignition from the ON position back to the OFF position in order to remove the first programmed key from the ignition.
3. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of removing the first previously programmed key, insert the second previously programmed key into the ignition and turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position (maintain ignition in the ON position for at least one second but no more than 10 seconds).
4. Turn the ignition from the ON position back to the OFF position in order to remove the second programmed key from the ignition.
5. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of removing the second programmed key, insert the new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position (maintain ignition in the ON position for at least one second, but no more than 10 seconds). This step will program your new key to a programmed key.
6. To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat Steps 1 through 5.

WOW! I am in shock how easy this is. I purchase a new key from FORD. They cut the key and told me, check youtube on how to program the key. I did it and BUM! so easy! Thanks for sharing! Great video!

[@PYR-Auto]

Glad it helped!

[@cirrus820travelers9]

Dealer charged me shop minimum hour rate to make "vallet" key. Plus sold me they key....... robbery!

[@rockandahardplace2013]

Worked perfectly. Thank you.

[@PYR-Auto]

You're welcome!

[@cjbernal886]

Worked just fine

[@bearbull88]

Ive read that if you have remote start you can use that as one key. Remote start and hit brake before it starts counts as one key turn and then use the actual key. Dont know if it works but will try this week.

[@andypell704]

If key starts the vehicle but does not works on the door locks: you will need 3 keys total: 2 fully working keys and follow this to make the 3rd key work on the door locks if it only works currently on the ignition. follow this: press unlock on drivers door, insert original programmed key 1 in ignition cycle key off and on 8 times in 10 seconds. On the 8th time leave key1 in on position. You will hear the door locks cycle. On key 2 already programmed key hit unlock or lock button. Now press unlock or lock on key 3 and it should now be programmed, now hit unlock on key1 and then turn key 1 to off position within 20 seconds. boom it works 💪

[@noeeon9910]

This method is so much better

[@ghostpepperrides4805]

Andy Pell thank you for the above information. My 2012 diesel lariat started ok but no buttons worked. The eight on/off you posted above got door locks working. The I guessed at getting my remote start to work. I first hit the horn button on fob. Horn on/off. Then my remote start worked. I got two new Factory fobs on Amazon $29.95. Cut at Ace Hardware $5.38. Then. Programmed. My first factory key I had repaired the board two times. Then all buttons stopped working. It still started the truck so system did see two factory keys. Then I found tgr truck would only program one new key. Three keys total. I removed battery from bad fob and was able to program second new key. Three keys all working like factory admin keys.

[@Mrchili54]

I had the same issue. Key would run the truck but none of the buttons worked. I did this and all buttons work now. Thanks!

[@jarodneedham7326]

How can you program with only one working fob?

[@MysteriousSystems]

worked beautifully. thank you!

[@kadenbarkdull5939]

I have the admin key, so how the heck do I get the my key bs off.?

[@nicholasmartino6919]

My truck came with only one key (when bought used) is there any tricks with only one key

[@PYR-Auto]

Unfortunately not - you will need an automotive locksmith or dealership

[@santoyomanny1890]

my truck wont catch any remotes or fob key

[@robsparks9625]

my original key is a 3 button. can i program a 4 button also or one or the other?

[@PYR-Auto]

no - the key needs to match your vehicles options

[@466htrd]

Do you have to reprogram the keys if you change the batteries in them?

[@PYR-Auto]

no

[@cirrus820travelers9]

Only have one remote key fob. The spare "vallet" key made at dealer does not have any functions. Do I use both those keys or must I go to have new key programmed?

[@PYR-Auto]

Im not 100% sure on that but I believe as long as both of the keys you have start and run the vehicle that you can program a third yourself - even with one being a valet key.

[@confitz6]

so what if a used truck only came with one key?

[@lucasallen8927]

I also need this answered cause the remote start button is broken on my key that I have so I need to replace it and make a spare

[@PYR-Auto]

Then you will need an automotive locksmith or dealership to make you an additional key.

[@adampitre7475]

I followed the instructions and the key starts the truck but none of the fob buttons work

[@jimidmoorehead]

@@adampitre7475 I did the same thing and mine was same way so I just now found the correct way and it’s the same as his but it’s 8 times to the on position.

[@micahbachtold464]

@@jimidmoorehead turn the key on and off 8 times? Is that what you mean? I'm a little confused

[@chrisserna9430]

My locks cycle every time I turn the key to accessory. Why?

[@PYR-Auto]

not sure on that

[@westxranchin]

What if I only have one programmed key? Do I cycle the same one two times?

[@PYR-Auto]

No - you will need a dealership or automotive locksmith to add keys if you only have 1 existing key

[@702havingfun]

Will the remote work ,with the lock and unlock ,using this method 🤔

[@PYR-Auto]

Yes

[@702havingfun]

It programed the key to start but did not work with the lock and unlock button

[@salvadorarreola4729]

@@702havingfun I got the same issue
were you able to get that working?

[@SundanceTradingCo]

use the method for a 2006 ford truck where you turn to Run 8 times within 10 seconds, leaving it in the Run Position then press a button on the new remote that needs to be programmed. That should program the fob to lock/unlock you truck m

[@cirrus820travelers9]

That is similar to priming fuel filter, On/Off cycles at 30 sec intervals. Does it deprogram a fob?

[@luisc5500]

what if i only have 1 key fab ☹️

[@PYR-Auto]

Then you will need an automotive locksmith or dealership

[@Addie1980]

And if you only have ONE working programmed key?!?

[@budbundy4014]

What if I only have one already programmed key? And the new one?
