Step-by-Step Programming Instructions:

To program a new flip key for your Ford Explorer:

1. Ensure you have two previously programmed keys and the new unprogrammed key readily accessible. If you only have one working flip key, you’ll need to purchase a programmer.

2. Insert the first previously programmed key into the ignition.

3. Turn the ignition from off to on and keep it on for at least three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.

4. Switch the ignition off and remove the first programmed key.

5. Within three seconds but no more than 10 seconds after turning off the ignition, insert the second previously programmed key and turn the ignition to the on position.

6. Again, keep the ignition on for at least three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.

7. Switch the ignition off and remove the second previously programmed key.

8. Within three seconds but no more than 10 seconds after turning off the ignition and removing the previously programmed key, insert the new unprogrammed key.

9. Turn the ignition from off to on and keep it on for at least six seconds.

10. Remove the newly programmed key from the ignition. If successfully programmed, it will start the engine and operate the remote entry system (if the new key is an integrated keyhead transmitter). If not, wait 10 seconds and repeat Steps 1 through 8.

However, if your Ford Explorer has the smart key system, it’s not onboard programmable. In this case, you’ll need to contact an automotive locksmith who can use specialized computer equipment to program the smart key remote fob for you.
