Default Ford MyKey

Got bored.....and started scrolling through the setup display screen. I came across MyKey,... should have read the owners manual. Be careful in this mode, because once you adjust the settings you are stuck reversing it! Don't program both keys to this either, because you will need 1 key to cancel the settings. Otherwise Ford will charge you to reprogram your keys. Thank goodness I stopped with one key!
Here's what happens on MyKey setting. Restrictive driving mode! If you or your passenger do not buckle up....this setting will restrict your stereo output volume, along with some other features like speed control.Lesson learned!

I set one and limited as much stuff as I could and use it when I take my truck places to get worked on or somewhere someone will have access to a key. I wish you could do more and limit the speed less then 80.

You cant, you have to have an admin key as I recall. Looks like a trip to the dealer for you!

I did that and removed the settings once I saw how restrictive it was.

And that's why I never even was tempted to mess with it.
