Key Programming - Security Access Procedure

NOTE: Security access must be granted to erase programmed encoded ignition keys, enable/disable spare key programming switch, or perform parameter resets for PCM. This procedure has a 10-minute time delay prior to granting security access, during which New Generation Star (NGS) tester must remain connected to vehicle. After security access has been granted, security access command menu is displayed which offers various command options.

NOTE: Once security access has been granted, multiple security access commands should be executed (if necessary) prior to exiting security access command menu. Execution of all necessary security access commands prior to exiting command menu avoids execution of an additional security access procedure and associated 10-minute time delay.

Connect New Generation Star (NGS) tester to Data Link Connector (DLC). Insert Ford Service Function (FSF) card into NGS tester. Turn ignition switch from OFF to ON position. Using NGS tester, select PCM from menu. Select SECURITY ACCESS PROCEDURE. This procedure will take 10 minutes to perform. After security access procedure has been completed, a new menu will be displayed with command options. Select functions that are required before exiting this menu. Once this menu is exited, security access procedure must be performed again to perform additional commands.
