MyKey.

I just purchased a 2012 Expedition it only came with one key. I accidentally programmed it as a MyKey. Now I can't get it reprogrammed as the Admin key. I called the dealership and was told the only way was to purchase a new key which is $200. Does anyone know a different way to reset my key???

Go see a locksmith, they can fix it for a lot less than the dealer.

A locksmith cannot directly fix the MyKey part. They can easily fix the "only one key" issue, though. Once you have a working Admin key, you can reset the other one yourself.

Of course, all this can be done in Forscan, including programming in a new key.
