keyless remote fob programming

Blind · 02-22-2010, 04:59 PM

On other fords I own, I can just cycle the key to run/off 8 times, then the door locks cycle, hit a button on the new remote, and it gets programmed in.

I tried this on my truck to pair a new remote, but the locks never cycled.

I searched the how to listings here but couldn't find the proceedure, little help?

I know its in the user manual. I did it years back after we got the 1st truck to add a 3rd set of keys & fob to it.

post up what you find cause mine wont program that way either. my truck didn't come with any literature.

figured it out, it is turning the key on/off 8 times in a row, you just have to go really fast then stop with the key in run (engine off) on the 8th cycle.

got 3 factory fobs and 2 of my mustang fobs programmed into the truck now and they all work

now to find somebody to cut/program the 2x new factory ford HD keys without resorting to the dealer...

you're in the same boat as me then

Me too. What are the options? Dealer quoted me an insane amount. Locksmiths were close. Most didn't have a clue what I was talking about.

a local hardware store I went to gave me the business card for a specialty locksmith in ventura who is supposed to be able to program the keys just like the dealer, has the specific box which I don't recall the name of.

VEGASbabyVEGAS · 03-17-2010, 10:46 PM

did you get an estimate? Ventura is going to be out of my way... But if his price is right... its really hard to justify paying $200+ for a key. I can only imagine what a pain in the *** it would be to loose the 1 I have.

no I haven't had a chance to call them up yet, I'll post up in here once I find out or have it done.

hey guys listen i know im new and all but uhm... i work for ford.. u need keys? PM me.. u want the keys that have the ford logo on one side and the harley symbol on the other or just regular ford chipped keys????

the keys were very easy for me to get, getting them programmed to work in my truck is the issue.

I bought 3 ford/harley logo'd OE keys + 3 remote keyless fobs for under $50 shipped iirc, ebay.

VEGASbabyVEGAS · 04-04-2010, 11:13 PM

Yeah the problem is... If you only have 1 of the keys that were programmed. Keys I can get all day...I just can't get them programmed.
