identify the user as an admin or MyKey™ drive depending on the
settings of the actual key used to start the vehicle.
Note: For all vehicles, the number of MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED or
ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED that is displayed in the MyKey™ system
status menus will include the non Ford-approved remote start system as
an additional key in the total count. See the Check MyKey™ system
status section.
Note: For all vehicles with a non Ford-approved remote start installed, it
is possible to program all ’real’ keys as MyKeys™, in which case, you will
need to use your remote start system to reset all MyKeys™ as admin
keys by doing the following:
1. Enter the vehicle, close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using your non Ford-approved remote start
fob.
3. Follow Steps 1-4 in the Clear MyKey™ section.
