To reset the anti-theft system on your 2009 Ford Flex, follow these simple steps that will only take 8 to 10 minutes of your time. First, stand within a range of 4 to 10 feet from your vehicle with all doors closed and locked. Locate the button on your key fob that looks like a loudspeaker and press it once to activate your personal alarm. Press the button twice in a row if you want to reset the anti-theft system. Another option is to reset it by turning your ignition to the on position, then to the Securilock position, and finally off.
I only have a single key, and I need assistance because my car won't start due to the anti-theft system.
This attempt was unsuccessful.
Here's a simplified version: To reset the anti-theft key on a 2009 Ford Flex, start by inserting your first programmed key into the ignition and turning it on. Remove the key, then quickly replace it with the second programmed key within 5 seconds. Turn the second key on and off before inserting the key you want to reprogram within 10 seconds. Turn it on for a second and then off. Leave the key in the ignition until the security light comes on, then remove it to finish the programming process.
