Hello all,

I just bought a 2021 ST and I am in shock as to how awesome this truck is - just crazy cool. I will be posted soon on how to program a third key, as well as looking for other COOL things you can do.

Thanks,
DaveR

Congratulations Dave, and welcome tot the forum
Thanks, Cajun Heat - this is one incredible vehicle. I purchased the IPP as I learned from my 2014 that it has great value.

I can't believe I can't find more information regarding programming my third key. I also hope someone in the forum can print out my vehicle history from Ford's ESP system (that is super handy).

I will begin looking and posting - thanks again for the welcome!

Here are instructions to program a 2020 Explorer key fob. I would think the direction are the same for a 2021 MY.

Hello there - SORRY for the late response but I didn't notice the responses (need to change prefs). Yep, this worked. I found that 1) timing is important, work FAST, and 2) I have to hit the start/stop button one addition "quick" time when programming the third key. This is what finally worked for me (I saw it in another video). Anyway, key is programmed! Again Thanks.

Congrats on your ST and welcome to the forum.
Thanks - Love this truck. Already purchased quite a few cosmetic upgrades (Carbon fiber inserts for a lot of the front cabin sections, forscan license and OBD2 connector (will start re-programming soon), mat for back, spare 3rd key, carbon fiber logo covers, and a wireless carplay adapter).

Super excited to get working on forscan. Hoping I have success and don't screw anything up!
