Hey, does anyone know how to program a new remote on a 2008+ F250??
I searches the whole net, and didn't find anything for newer fords.

I tried the 8 times on/off thing (it was like that on my 2007 SportTrac) but it doesn't work on this truck.

ANYONEEEE?

 

Look in your owners manual, the instructions are listed there. Sorry I cannot remember the steps you have to go thru. I added 2 more FOB's to my 2008 F350 and did not have a problem doing it.
If for some reason you do not have a manual I will look in mine and post the steps.

 

according to the owners manual on http://www.motorcraftservice.com

• Perform the following programming procedure yourself:
Note: Ensure the brake pedal is not
pressed during this sequence.
Place the key in the ignition and
cycle from 1 (off) to 3 (on) eight
times in rapid succession within
10 seconds. After doors lock/unlock,
press any control on all transmitters
(up to four). After pressing the
control on each remote transmitter,
the door will lock and unlock. If
programming multiple remote transmitters, you must press the control
buttons on each remote transmitter within seven seconds of each other to
remain in programming mode. When completed, turn the ignition to 1 (off).
All transmitters must be programmed at the same time.
• When completed, turn the ignition to the 1 (on) position and wait at
least 20 seconds in order to use the recently programmed
transmitter(s).
• All transmitters must be programmed during the same programming
cycle. A transmitter that is not programmed within the same
programming cycle will be erased and will no longer operate your
vehicle’s locks. If this occurs, you will have to reprogram all the
transmitters again, as you cannot just “add” a transmitter.

I dont have the owners manual, so if you can check that would be great. I tried the 8 times on/off and it does not work, as i said, it worked on my 2007 sport trac, but not on this one.

 

I posted a link to where u can get the owners manual online, AND I quoted (cut/paste, not retype) that manual for the procedure for the year/model you requested info on. hm.. this looks different .. please read for yourself on the mastercraft site

note that the start of the 8 cycles is OFF and the END of the 8 cycles is ON

To reprogram the remote entry
transmitters:
1. Ensure the vehicle is
electronically unlocked.
2. Put the key in the ignition.
3. Cycle eight times rapidly (within
10 seconds) between the 1
(OFF/LOCK) position and 3 (ON).
Note: The eighth turn must end in
the 3 (ON) position. The doors will
lock, then unlock, to confirm that the programming mode has been
activated.
4. Within 20 seconds press any button on the remote entry transmitter.
Note: If more than 20 seconds have passed you will need to start the
procedure over again. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that
this remote entry transmitter has been programmed.
5. Repeat Step 4 to program each additional remote entry transmitter.
6. Turn the ignition to the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position after you have
finished programming all of the remote entry transmitters. Note: After
20 seconds, you will automatically exit the programming mode. The
doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that the programming mode has
been exited.
