Can Forscan program keys
Can the Forscan tool ya'll have program keys? I haven't gotten smart on that yet, but it seems like it'd be a handy thing for a salesperson to have.

The truck programs the key and remote. You just have to get it cut to your truck. But you need two keys before you can do a third. If not it has to be ordered and cost 3X as much.
This is how you program a new key. Take key #1 insert, turn to RUN and off then remove key. Take key #2 insert, turn to RUN and off then remove. Take key #3 NEW insert, turn to run and off then remove. Take key #3 turn to START and it will start the truck.
If you want a key without the remote you need to get what is called by Ford a Ignition Transponder Key no remote #164-R8124. Depending on who ordered it but you need to get it cut to your truck prior to trying to program it. My dealer said they don't make a key like this and I took a gamble and had him order the key. It works and this is the correct ford part number. Note if you open the door with the key the alarm timer starts counting down and you have to insert the key within like 20 seconds or the alarm goes off. If you use the door combination there is no time limit.
