Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda Compatible Keyless Entry Remote Start Car Key Fob

Tammie F: Ordered a 2 pack of the remote and one is Ford specific and one is a generic remote. The generic key remote cannot be fully programmed for remote start like the key marked as a Ford remote key. Took key to dealership to program and cut and even the dealership was shocked that one key was a generic key and that they could not fully program the key remote

Theresa McBride: I was hoping the remote start button on these keys would work. Unfortunately like others have reviewed they didn't. The remote start button acted as a second unlock button. Keys did program easy and so I gave it 2 stars as they do partially function.

Ryan D.: The keys work. Once cut, they program easily, but if you program the key fobs one at a time, any fob you’ve already programmed loses its programming. Also, the remote start button is there for show. Once the keys are programmed, they will unlock the doors, but not start the vehicle. There are cheaper options without the start option, so I recommend that if you don’t need the start button to work, but if you do, don’t bother with these.

Kimberley D. Doiron: I was able to set the key and the remote to lock and unlock the doors by following the instructions. However like many of the reviews here the remote starter function on both keys that I bought doesn't work. As I paid the dealership $50 to cut the keys which is required to be able to set the up keys, I can't return them and even if I could, I am out the $50. So lose/lose situation. I bought these as they claimed to replace the factory remote starters. I would recommend you save your money and look elsewhere or even a dealership even though they are significantly more expensive. But at least you'll have a remote that works.

Amazon Customer: I purchased these keys after getting a price quote from Ford for 2 new keys, cutting, and programming, which was going to be around $500 total. After researching, I decided to do this myself.

I purchased a used 2012 Ford 150 pickup truck. I only got 1 Admin key when I purchased this and needed to get spare keys for everyday use.

The new keys will only open the doors (manually) and start your vehicle after completing Part 1 and Part 2. The Key FOB (buttons) works after Part 3.

From my experience, the order of these steps is important and should be followed for each key.

Part 1 = Cut the keys
Part 2 = Program the security
Part 3 = Program the FOB

You get 2 blank key+fobs with this order. They appear to match perfectly the originals (w/o Ford Logo on back)

Part 1 - Cut the keys
You will need to get the keys cut. I ended up getting mine cut at Ace Hardware for free.

Part 2 - Program the security in the key
- If you only have 1 admin key, you will need to use an OBD-II scanner and FORScan software. There are videos on YouTube on the exact process which takes about 30 minutes total per new key. The software is free and a...

Dwayne: Note that there are 2 programming procedures.
One for the security chip.
One for pushbuttons.
I bought the two keys and because I only had one original, a locksmith had to program the 1st key security chip, while there he programmed the chip in the 2nd new key as well.
I then programmed the fobs pushbuttons myself, refer to the sellers website for that…the website was in the pkgs for the new keys….

Re. REMOTE PROGRAMMING (buttons only, to program the chip its a separate procedure)
“Please make sure to read through the programming before attempting.
All remotes that are expected to work for the vehicle will need to be with you in the vehicle before attempting to program. Any remotes not present at the time of programming will cease to function until reprogrammed.
1. Enter the vehicle, close, and unlock all doors using the power unlock switch on the driver’s door.
2. Insert the key into the ignition.
3. Within ten (10) seconds, switch the key as far to the ON position as it will go without starting; then back to OFF, perform this step eight (8) times ending in the ON position on the eighth (8th) time. Each cycle ON to OFF will count as one...

Jason Ryyppo: I got these keys cut at the dealership, then did the programming myself following these instructions. They work awesome, with acceptable but range but I will not complain for the price.
REMOTE PROGRAMMING
1. Enter the vehicle, close, and unlock all doors using the power unlock switch on the driver’s door.
2. Insert the key into the ignition.
3. Within ten (10) seconds, switch the key as far to the ON position as it will go without starting; then back to OFF, perform this step eight (8) times ending in the ON position on the eighth (8th) time. Each cycle ON to OFF will count as one (1).
If the door locks appear to be cycling after the fourth (4th) ON to OFF cycle, restart the procedure from STEP 1 and only turn the key four (4) times in this STEP, ending in the ON position the fourth (4th) time.

At this point the vehicle door locks should automatically lock and unlock, indicating that the programming mode has been activated. If the door locks do not cycle automatically then the programming procedure has failed and you need to restart the procedure from STEP 1.

4. Within seven (7) seconds, using any remote, (we recommend first programming original...

Robert Alan Koeneke: Quite a savings if you live through the experience... :-) Here are some "key" points to help others out. This is for using these on a 2011 Ford 150 pickup truck, but I imagine they apply to many other fords. I needed to replace one key+fob that had stopped working (not the battery). It turns out the key has a security chip that was working, so just the fob had failed (would no longer open the truck doors).

There are 3 parts to the adventure, and they can be done in any order. The new keys will only open the doors (manually) and start your vehicle after completing Part 1 and Part 2. The Key FOB works after Part 3 - so if you do Part 3 first, be aware the keys still will NOT start the vehicle.

Part 1 = Cut the keys
Part 2 = Program the security
Part 3 = Program the FOB

Note 1: You get 2 blank key+fobs with this order. They appear to match perfectly the originals.

Part 1:
Step 1. You will need to get the keys cut, this can be a hassle as some places will do it and others will not. They cut the keys - They do not program them for you. I ended up getting mine cut at Lowe's Hardware, even though they told me they are not supposed to do it. I love...
