immobilizer FORD F-150 2018 Owners Manual

PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
Note: The system is not compatible with
non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle
starting problems and a loss of security
protection.
Note: Metallic objects, electronic devices
or a second coded key on the same key
chain may cause vehicle starting problems
if they are too close to the key when starting
the engine. Prevent these objects from
touching the coded key while starting the
engine. Switch the ignition off, move all
objects on the key chain away from the
coded key and restart the engine if a
problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in the vehicle. Always take your keys and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.
SecuriLock ™
The system is an engine immobilization
system. It helps prevent the engine from
starting unless you use a coded key
programmed to your vehicle. Using the
wrong key may prevent the engine from
starting. A message may appear in the
information display.
If you are unable to start the engine with a
correctly coded key, the system has
malfunctioned. A message may appear in
the information display.
Automatic Arming
The system arms immediately after you
switch the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded key
disarms the system. Replacement Keys
Note:
Your vehicle may have two integrated
keyhead transmitters.
The integrated keyhead transmitter
functions as a programmed ignition key. It
operates all the locks, starts the vehicle
and acts as a remote control.
If your programmed transmitters or
standard SecuriLock coded keys are lost
or stolen and you do not have an extra
coded key, you need to have your vehicle
towed to an authorized dealer. You need
to erase the key codes from your vehicle
and program new coded keys.
Store an extra programmed key away from
your vehicle in a safe place to help prevent
any inconveniences. Contact an authorized
dealer to purchase additional spare or
replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Integrated
Keyhead Transmitter
Note: You can program a maximum of six
coded keys to your vehicle. All six can be
integrated keyhead transmitters.
You can program your own integrated
keyhead transmitter or standard
SecuriLock coded keys to your vehicle.
This procedure programs both the engine
immobilizer keycode and the remote entry
portion of the remote control to your
vehicle.
Only use integrated keyhead transmitters
or standard SecuriLock keys.
You must have two previously
programmed coded keys and the new
unprogrammed key readily accessible.
Contact an authorized dealer to have the
spare key programmed if two previously
programmed coded keys are not available.
Read and understand the entire procedure
before you begin.
