Just programmed an additional key for my 2014 escape and it worked perfectly. Bought a $16 ODB2 reader for $16 on amazon and turned off MyKey restrictions. Bought a $11 extra key on ebay and programmed the key fob. Paid $75 for locksmith to cut the new key, then used Forscan and this video to program the new key. Worked perfectly … thanks!

Thanks for the video. I tried to program my 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid via the key on off 8 times, but it wouldn't work. I thought maybe my car already had four keys programmed. So worst comes to worst and if i erase my good key, I'll call a locksmith. The good news is using Fortran, I could see that it showed only 2 of 4 keys programmed. Long story short it worked and no locksmith was needed. Now i have 3 of 4 ignition keys programmed.

If you have only one working key and you want to add additional key. You do not need FORScan or any other scan tools. Follow my instructions and it will work for you, I did this recently to my 03 mustang which has the Ford transponder key. First insert your original key into ignition and turn to on position, wait till alarm light to turn off, usually 5 to 10 seconds. remove your original key and place it right next to the ignition column. Place it near the ignition is at. This tells the car that the transponder is in proximity of the ECU. Next insert your new key and turn to on and wait for alarm light to go off 5 to 10 seconds. Remove key. Your new key is now programmed as the second key. Now you have 2 keys that is programmed to your car. Now that you have 2 keys programmed, follow the simple instructions to add additional keys. You are welcome.

Ford Edge 2013, only 1 key, and it is nearly dead. I’ve read a lot about this but, the problem is that I’ve been getting conflicting information. Yes I can with a spare key and the ONLY key that we have… and then NO you CAN’T add new key with only 1 key. So… as all of you know this isn’t something I can be wrong about I try. So, that being said, can these specific details, still be ok and get a second key on our own?

I had a feeling that this was going to happen when I saw you put the new key in the ignition. It looks like the key you were trying to program was a generation newer than you original key. It’s obvious now but that will not work lol. I keep some spare blank keys like these for any situation I need to program PATS and the customer only has one key. I’ll take the transponder ring loose from the column so I can stick a blank inside of it to trick the system into learning the second key.
@goromadness9755 Жыл бұрын
hi, I don't get it. If you stick a blank key inside of the transponder ring, how is that gonna do anything when you put a second key in the ignition?, I mean the blank key is just a piece of metal. I dont understand.

Not when the immo is flashing and I can't start the car. I suspect that it is the keyless module or the fault of one of the antennas. Can I use a forscan to reprogram my cards? Is it safe?

Perhaps, see my comments on which key blanks actually work with ForScan. However, mine was 2003, so not sure this holds true thru 2011, but it probably does. The only blank that worked with ForScan on my 2003 F-150 was this Strattech one: "StratTec 597602 H72PT Blank Transponder Ignition Key with Ford Logo for selected Ford, Lincoln & Mercury Vehicles" is the description on Amazon. HOWEVER, Your 2011 uses a different generation of PATS, and I had success using THIS key blank on Amazon with ForScan, on a 2006 Ford Focus, and others reported success with a 2007 F-150. Amazon description: "Car Key Fob Keyless Entry Remote fits Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda with Ignition Key (CWTWB1U331 GQ43VT11T CWTWB1U345 3-btn), Set of 2" I believe the 2007 F-150 PATS is the same as the 2011, so perhaps try it with these blanks.
