Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Program a MyKey™
2010 Ford Focus S, StandardSECTION Program a MyKey™
NOTE:
After a MyKey™ has been programmed, the remaining standard key(s) (the key[s] that is not programmed with the MyKey™ feature) is referred to as an "administrator key(s)" or "admin" key(s). There must always be at least one admin key. The Instrument Cluster (IC) does not allow the last admin key to be programmed into a MyKey™ restricted key. Both the admin key and the MyKey™ restricted key can be used to see how many MyKey™ and admin keys are programmed to the vehicle, and how many total miles have been driven with the MyKey™ feature active (using the message center). The MyKey™ is the one with the restricted status. The admin key does not have any restrictions.
