MyKey Help
My company gives me a truck to use for work. They get them from enterprise rental on some lease deal. I only have the MyKey and no Admin key. Please tell me there is a way to disable the mykey settings. Limited speed, I travel on the highway for work, quiet radio, I like it loud.....No admi key for normal reset. Please oh great ford minds, save me from slow lane hell>>!!!!!

Just got the truck this morning so I haven't been home yet. I am going to try but I have a feeling the info will be saved in the pcm even after a reset. It's worth a try though.

80mph, speed limit on the highway I use is 75mph. So not only can I not pass, I get a bell and "Nearing Top Speed" warning at 75mph. Plus radio only goes to 45% Volume. I will have this truck for about six months, that's a long time.

Looks like you have to have remote start, or go get a new admin key from a dealer.
Pulled these from the owner's manual:
I accidentally programmed all
keys as MyKeys™ • Vehicle has a remote start system
that is recognized as an admin key.
Refer to the Using MyKey™ with
remote start systems section
Note: For all vehicles with remote start installed, it is possible to
program all original vehicle keys as MyKeys™, in which case, you will
need to use your remote start system to reset all MyKeys™ as admin
keys by doing the following:
1. Enter the vehicle, close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using your remote start fob.
3. Follow Steps 1-4 in the Clear MyKey™ section.
Clear MyKey™
To reset all MyKeys™ as admin keys do the following:
1. Turn the vehicle on using the admin key.
2. Press SETUP or select/reset stem until PRESS RESET TO CLEAR
MYKEY is displayed.
3. Press and release the RESET button or press and hold the select/reset
stem until HOLD RESET TO CONFIRM CLEAR is displayed.
4. Press and hold the RESET button or select/reset stem until ALL
MYKEYS CLEARED is displayed.
