How to Program a 2012 Ford Mustang Ignition Chip Key Transponder

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

Adding a new transmitter to your vehicle when you have one recognized transmitter:

1. Ensure the vehicle is off.
2. Have both the recognized and new, unrecognized transmitters on your person.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the vehicle key into the key cylinder located on the lower rear fascia on the driver’s side.
4. Turn the key five times within five seconds. The trunk will open.
5. The Driver’s Information Center (DIC) will display “READY FOR FOB #X”, where X can be 2, 3, or 4.
6. Place the new, unrecognized transmitter in the glove box transmitter pocket with the buttons facing to the right.
7. Once the transmitter is programmed, a beep will sound. The DIC will display “READY FOR #X”, where X can be 3 or 4, or “MAX # FOBS LEARNED”.
8. Press the OFF/ACCESSORY button.

To program a new transmitter when you don’t have a recognized transmitter:

1. Ensure the vehicle is off.
2. Place the new, unrecognized transmitter in the glove box transmitter pocket with the buttons facing to the right.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the vehicle key into the key cylinder located on the lower rear fascia on the driver’s side.
4. Turn the key five times within five seconds. The trunk will open.
5. The DIC message will display “OFF-ACC TO LEARN”.
6. Press the OFF/ACCESSORY button.
7. The DIC will read “WAIT 10 MINUTES” and will count down to zero, one minute at a time.
8. The DIC will display “OFF-ACC TO LEARN” again.
9. Press the OFF/ACCESSORY button.
10. Repeat steps 7-9 two more times.
11. A beep will sound, and the DIC will read “READY FOR FOB #1”. At this time, all previously known transmitters have been erased.
12. Once the transmitter is recognized and programmed, a beep will sound, and the DIC will display “READY FOR FOB #2”.
13. If you have additional transmitters to program, repeat the process, removing the previously programmed transmitter from the transmitter pocket and placing the next transmitter in.
14. This process can be repeated until up to four transmitters have been programmed. The DIC will then display “MAX # FOBS LEARNED” and will exit the programming mode.
15. When you are done programming transmitters, press the OFF/ACCESSORY button.
