Can I program a replacement key with only one original key?
I just bought a 2010 and only received one key. Is it possible to program a replacement without the second key. Trying not to go to the dealership.

There is some free software available that will let you do so, just need an OBDII dongle and a Windows laptop/tablet. www.forscan.org to download. Also there's a thread on this forum created to help guide you along, https://www.f150forum.com/f38/forsca...ations-349018/

You can't use forescan on the 09-10 trucks, different computer systems. You CANNOT program a second key with only one master, no ands ifs or buts about it with your year truck. DO NOT get a cloned key, it's not a true master either and can't be used to make new keys. Buy a ford pats key on ebay, take it to a locksmith, pay them 50-60 bucks for 5 minutes of time with their special computer and you'll then have a second master.

I agree with getting an OEM key, or at least buying from a reputable seller, as the cheap knockoff key blanks are hit or miss when it comes to programming.

I'm looking into the same thing (2010 F150) for akey the wife lost.
Not sure if this will be of any other assistance (On a bad net) but it looks to be a 'walk through'.

Hope it helps.
.... I'd also like to find a way to program a transmitter for the lock and the Autostart as she lost those on the other key as well.
*** Edit: Also looks like you will need an extended license to use the PATS reprogramming... according to their page at:
