How to Program a 2011 Ford Transit Ignition Smart Chip Key
 
Step by Step How to Program Instructions:
 
Follow the instructions below to program the key portion of your remote/key combo. 
Key blade must be cut before you can program.
 
The process for programming keys is independent of the process for programming Remote Entry Fobs. If your vehicle is fitted with a key and Remote Entry fob combo, you must perform both learning procedures in order to program both the Immobilizer and
Remote Locking functions of the key fob.

Tips:
• A maximum of eight keys can be programmed to your vehicle.
• You must have two previously programmed keys (keys that
already operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed
key(s) readily accessible.

• If two previously programmed keys are not available, you must have a Locksmith program a second key for you.

1. Insert a previously programmed key into the ignition.

2. Turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position. Keep the ignition in the ON position for at least one second, but no more than 10 seconds.

3. Turn the ignition to the OFF position.

4. Remove the previously programmed key from the ignition.

5. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of removing the previously programmed key, insert the other previously programmed key into the ignition.

6. Turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position. Keep the ignition in the ON position for at least one second but not more than 10 seconds.

7. Turn the ignition to the OFF position.

8. Remove the previously programmed key from the ignition. 
 
9. After three seconds but within twenty seconds of removing the previously programmed key, insert the unprogrammed key (new/valet key) into the ignition.

10. Turn the ignition from the OFF position to the ON position. Keep the ignition in the ON position for at least one second, but no more than 10 seconds.

11. Your new, unprogrammed key is now programmed.

If the key has been successfully programmed it will start the vehicle’s engine and the theft indicator light will illuminate for three seconds and then go out.
If the key was not successfully programmed, it will not start your
vehicle’s engine and the theft indicator light will flash on and off, or stay
on for more than three seconds.

To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this procedure
from Step 1 for each additional key. 
 
 
How to reprogram your remote entry fobs. You must have all remote entry fobs (maximum of four) available before beginning this procedure. If all remote entry fobs are not present during the programming procedure, the fobs that are not present during programming will no longer operate the vehicle.
 
Note: Ensure the brake pedal is not depressed during this sequence.
 
To reprogram the remote entry fobs:
 
1. Ensure the vehicle is electronically unlocked.
 
2. Put the key in the ignition in the (OFF) position.
 
3. Cycle four times rapidly (within six seconds) between the (OFF) (ON) position. Do not start the vehicle. Note: The fourth turn must end in the (ON) position.
 
4. Turn the key to the (OFF) position within 10 seconds.
 
5. A chime will sound to confirm that the programming mode has been activated.
 
6. Within 10 seconds press any button on the remote entry fob. Note: If more than 10 seconds have passed you will need to start the procedure over again.
 
7. A chime will sound to confirm that this remote entry fob has been programmed.
 
8. Repeat Step 6 to program each additional remote entry fob.
 
9. The programming mode will exit automatically after 10 seconds of inactivity or by turning the ignition ON. That completes the procedure for programming the remote portion of your remote/key combo.
