How to Program a 2019 Ford F150 Ignition Smart Chip Key Transponder

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

If your Ford F150 is equipped with the flip key system, follow these instructions. Your vehicle can hold a maximum of eight programmed keys. To program a key yourself, you’ll need two previously programmed keys (keys that already operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily accessible for each step. Please ensure you understand the entire procedure before beginning.

1. Insert the first previously programmed key into the ignition and turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position (keep the ignition ON for at least one second but no more than 10 seconds).
2. Turn the ignition from the ON position back to the OFF position to remove the first programmed key.
3. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of removing the first previously programmed key, insert the second previously programmed key into the ignition and turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position (maintain ignition ON for at least one second but no more than 10 seconds).
4. Turn the ignition from the ON position back to the OFF position to remove the second programmed key from the ignition.
5. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of removing the second programmed key, insert the new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position (maintain ignition ON for at least one second, but no more than 10 seconds). This step will program your new key to a programmed key.
6. To program additional new unprogrammed keys, repeat Steps 1 through 5. If successful, the new programmed key(s) will start the vehicle’s engine and operate the remote functions.

For vehicles equipped with the smart key system:

Ensure your vehicle is off before beginning this procedure. Close all doors before starting and ensure they remain closed throughout the procedure. Perform all steps within 30 seconds of starting the sequence. Stop and wait for at least one minute before starting again if you perform any steps out of sequence. Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.

1. Place the first programmed key in the backup slot in the center console, then press the push-button ignition switch. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition.
2. Wait five seconds, then press the push-button ignition switch again. Switch the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Remove the intelligent access key. Switch the ignition off and remove the first coded key from the ignition.
4. Within 10 seconds, place a second programmed intelligent access key in the backup slot. Press the push-button ignition switch. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of switching the ignition off, insert the second previously coded key into the ignition.
5. Wait five seconds, then press the push-button ignition switch again. Switch the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
6. Remove the intelligent access key. Switch the ignition off and remove the second previously programmed coded key from the ignition.
7. Place the unprogrammed intelligent access key in the backup slot and press the push-button ignition switch. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of switching the ignition off and removing the previously programmed coded key, insert the new unprogrammed key into the ignition. Programming is now complete. Verify the remote control functions operate and your vehicle starts with the new intelligent access key. If programming was not successful, wait 10 seconds and repeat Steps 1 through 7.
