I feel like this has been asked many times, and usually the person is pointed to finding the card in the glovebox or somewhere else in the truck. I have to admit, though, I had not seen this method shown and demonstrated clearly. Tim is a great resource in the Ford Community!!

Saw this and almost posted also. Tim explains this is new for 2024's. I'm not sure this works for '22 and '23.

Ok, my bad if it’s only for 2024s. Didn’t watch close enough obviously.

Well he said it was for 2024 but I researched and it applies to older models as well.

Here is the process (requires 2 keyfobs):
  1. Remove bottom cup holder liner to expose emergency keyfob slot
  2. Put fob #1 fat end down into slot. Truck should be off.
  3. Press Start WITHOUT foot on brake.
  4. After truck starts (dash message "Accessory mode is active") turn truck off.
  5. Put fob #2 fat end down into slot.
  6. Press Start WITHOUT foot on brake.
  7. Dash will display master code for the truck.
Once Step 3 is started you have 30 seconds to finish.

I tried this for a long time and finally his note of “big side down” and “all in less than 30sec” worked magic.


Again,

KEY BIG SIDE DOWN
ALL DONE IN LESS THAN 30sec.
