• thanks for that!!
  

I bought a flip key but I think you must need two original keys (not an aftermarket copy) to be able to program it yourself, as I couldn't "enter programming mode" with the locks cycling. I'm guessing the car thinks I'm inserting the same key for both steps.

I also couldn't get it to enter programming mode for the remotes either ALTHOUGH I didn't have any trouble following the instructions years ago when I got the first copy key and remote done...?

Yeh you need two known keys to enter programming mode

I think he was saying he has 2 but one is one he has programmed previously, I do remember when doing mine it was hard to get the car into program mode for no apparent reason.

Any tips before going to ford?

I sorted the remote part, I was waiting for bluetooth to do its thing before hitting demist but u have to turn to on and hit demist three times within 5 secs.

Tried key program again but just wont cycle locks.

Im getting in

Close door

Key 1 to on

Pull out

Key 2 (working copy of key 1) to acc

Pull out

I get nothing

Am I meant to leave key 2 on acc until it cycles perhaps?

Ford said $132 to program it which is ok I guess

Sounds like Standard diagnostic fee... Pity it only takes 10 min to program a key via IDS / GSEVIN providing everything cooperates

yeah not too bad still considering the expense of the equipment etc.

I read in the workshop manual that when a dealer programs a key the PCM ID gets changed.

Do you know if this affects the tune? will I just have to reflash? not even?

Nah youl be fine it doesnt change anything other than pats parameters

It's first key to acc, second key to on!

New key to acc.
