Erase All Keys and Key Programming

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Ford Transit-350 HD, 2016 Ford Transit-350, 2016 Ford Transit-250, and 2016 Ford Transit-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Programming 

NOTE: IKT type of keys for non- PATS and PATS equipped vehicles look identical. On the OASIS tab, click on the Additional Information link and use the search function (Ctrl+F) to find IMMOBILIZER. Vehicles with "LESS ENG IMMOBILIZER THEFT SYS" are not equipped with a PATS. If not equipped with a PATS, refer to Handles, Locks, Latches And Entry Systems for RKE Transmitter Programming.
NOTE: At least 2 or 4 PATS keys (depending on the original minimum number of keys required) with the correct mechanical cut must be available to carry out this procedure.
NOTE: This procedure erases all MyKey ® features on all keys programmed to the vehicle. All of the keys operate as normal (admin) keys with no restrictions.
