How To Disable Ford MyKey
If you’ve been wondering: “how to turn off my Ford MyKey?” it’s easy with this step-by-step guide. A driver in your family needs to exchange keys with a parent, or if you’re planning to sell the car to someone new, you’ll need to know how to disable Ford MyKey. Thankfully, it only takes about a minute to disable or turn off Ford MyKey when you follow our guide to this feature. If you experience any difficulty contact Beach Ford today to learn how to turn off Ford MyKey.
How to Turn Off My Ford MyKey
The menus you’ll need to disable the Ford MyKey system only appear for the driver if the vehicle is started with the admin key or the admin key fob. Once you have either of these on hand, clear all MyKey settings and return each programmed MyKey to its original “admin key” status. See the steps on how to turn off Ford MyKey below:
- Start the car. Wait for your onboard computer and screen to power up.
- Locate your steering wheel-mounted information display controls. Press the left arrow button to access the main menu.
- On the main menu, select “Settings” by pressing “OK.”
- Under “Settings,” scroll to the option that says “MyKey,” then press “OK.”
- Under “MyKey,” search for the option that says “Clear MyKey.”
- With this setting selected, press and hold “OK” until the message “All MyKeys Cleared” appears on the screen.
What is Ford MyKey?
If any of this sounds confusing to you, you may want to familiarize yourself with the basics. Much like Ford SYNC®, FordPass, and Ford Remote Start, Ford MyKey is designed to provide peace of mind and convenience during your drives around Conway and Murrells Inlet. Here’s how it works:
- Ford MyKey allows one driver — the designated admin — to program restrictions and preferences for all of the other keys that are used to drive that vehicle.
- Most drivers use it to promote and monitor good behavior for teen drivers and less experienced drivers in their life.
- It functions by limiting a driver’s top speed, minimizing distractions from entertainment features, and ensuring proper seat belt usage for passengers in the front seats.
- When a driver starts the vehicle with a programmed MyKey, they’ll be limited by the admin’s preselected speed, and they’ll be required to use any Ford safety features, parking aids, and Ford Co-Pilot360™ technologies that your vehicle may possess.
How To Do a Ford MyKey Reset
After you disable Ford MyKey, there may come a time when you’d like to turn it on again. This just requires a Ford MyKey reset We’ve included a helpful step-by-step reference guide so you can reprogram your MyKey feature at a moment’s notice:
- Take the key that you would like to program and insert it into the ignition. If your Ford is equipped with a push-button start, insert the key into the backup slot.
- Using the left arrow in your information display controls, access the main menu, and navigate to “Settings.”
- From here, scroll down and select “MyKey,” then select “Create MyKey” from the new menu.
- The system will prompt you to select “OK,” thereby labeling the key that’s in the ignition as a MyKey.
- From this point forward, the key will be restricted upon starting up the vehicle until Ford MyKey is disabled.
In order to change the restriction settings, vehicle speed minders, and Ford MyKey volume limited or audio system controls, simply start the car with an admin key and navigate back to the “MyKey” menu. From here, simply select the feature that you’d like to change the settings for, and make adjustments as necessary.
What if there is No MyKey Option in Settings?
In some cases you might see that there is no Ford MyKey option in settings.

I have both of my keys but when I go to my setting mykey feature does not come up how do I reset 1 of my key to an administrative key so I can change my speed limit n volume control
When following the directions, make sure you don’t have both keys in the vehicle at the same time. If they are together, your vehicle won’t be able to “see” which one is the Admin key. Leave one inside your house, far away from the other key and your vehicle then try the directions. If it doesn’t work, just switch keys and try again.
My steering wheel buttons don’t work
This is probably something you would need diagnosed in person at Ford Service Center.
I only got one key when I bought my vehicle and of course it wasn’t an admin key. Now my only key is a my key and I accidentally turned my key on and now my truck has all these restrictions that I don’t want. How do I fix this?
You would need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle. Once you have the new key, you’ll be able to clear the current settings.
What if you only have one key how do you turn mykey off?
If you don’t have your vehicle’s Admin key, you would need to have a new one made for your vehicle.

You can’t. It can only be changed with an Admin key.
I have a Ford fiesta and I only have one key for it and I want it off but I’m not sure if they will charge me to take it off HELP
A Ford service center would charge you for the new Admin key and for the required programing. They would not be able to remove the current settings but once you have the new Admin key, you’ll be able to do it yourself.
How do I turn ford mykey off a 2015 mustang gt? I can’t see the clear mykey on the screen cluster. I do have an admin key and a spare key

I accidentally turned on My Key using the only key I have, so it’s obviously an Admin Key. Now I’m trying to Clear My Key and the Clear option is not listed. If I turned it on with the only key I have, why can’t I turn it off with the same key?
You can setup the MyKey settings without the Admin key, but it is required to clear or change the settings. This is a safety feature so the person with the MyKey (MyKey restrictions) won’t be able to change the settings. If you’re not getting the option to “Clear MyKey” it means the key you are using is not an Admin key, so you would need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.

This means you are not using an Admin key. If you have a second key to your vehicle, trying using that key. If not, you’ll need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.

How do I override my key it’s a push start I’m the owner of the vehicle and I don’t have the admin key how do correct the safety features with the volume and seat belt?
If you don’t have the admin key, you would need to have one made for your vehicle. The only way to clear the current settings is with an admin key.
I have tried this and I am unable to clear the setting
Are you having a specific problem? You need to make sure you are using your vehicle’s Admin key when following these directions. If you don’t use the Admin key, you won’t get the option to “Clear MyKey”. If you don’t have an Admin key, you’ll need to have one made for your vehicle.
I have a 2012 F-350 and the engine went out. We got a new 6.7 power stroke and the engine had MyKey on it and it’s really annoying. This is 2012 xlt so not all controls in steering wheel.

I have cleared all my keys and need to somehow get all the safety features especially the volume on the radio. I guess i do not have the admin key and neither does the place i got it from. Is there anything i can do
You will need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle. Once you have the Admin key, you’ll be able to clear the current settings.
I just bought this vehicle and the my key is activated and the previous owner never had one either.. It controls the radio volume.. How can I deactivate Mykey without the mykey
A key with the MyKey restrictions won’t let you clear the settings. You will need to use your vehicle’s Admin key. The Admin key is basically your vehicle’s master key. If you don’t have the Admin key, you will need to have one made for your vehicle. Once you have the Admin key, you’ll get the option to “Clear MyKey” and the restrictions will be gone.
This is so frustrating. I unknowingly set MyKey and I absolutely know I have the admin key it simply Won’t let me reset. That garbage!
You will get the option to “Clear MyKey” if you are using your vehicle’s Admin key. If you’re not getting that option, you’re not using the Admin key. If you have another key to your vehicle, you may want to try using that key. If that doesn’t work, you’ll need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.

Okay I have a 2013 taurus. I have 2 key fobs and a push start button. I accidentally programmed my admin key to a my key how do I clear it? It show 2 my key and 1admin key but I only have 2 key fobs?
The dealership reprogrammed my CMax for a new key. I have 2 admin keys and 0 mykeys.. unfortunately, I have the mykey limitations. I can’t turn them off, though I’ve tried. There is no menu below my key..
I have 2 admin keys….no clear button….what should I do?
When you try to rest the MyKey settings, make sure you don’t have both keys present in the car at the same time.
I have the admin key in my truck, no others, and I cannot turn off MyKey. There is no options when I select MyKey. It only show the status.
If you are sure you have the Admin key, you will need to make sure no other keys to your vehicle are present in the vehicle when you try to reset it. The vehicle will have trouble determining which key is the Admin key. If you have no other keys present when you try to reset it, that means the key you have is not the Admin key.
How much is a extra key for 2017 Ford Escape SE
You will need to contact your local Ford service center to find out how much the key and the programming would cost.
I bought a mustang that doesn’t have admin key. I tried to clear it but doesn’t give me the option. Any suggestions??
You’ll need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.
The MyKey option doesnt pop up on my settings.
That means you’re not using your vehicle’s Admin key.
I have only one key for my 2013 Ford Edge. My son set the my key and now I cannot clear it. I go to my key and it does not give me the option to clear it only shows “my key 67 mi.” So what do I do now. He has it set for up to 80mph and no buckle no radio, and radio only goes so loud. Help.
If you’re not getting the option to clear the MyKey settings, it means the key you are using is not your vehicle’s Admin key. You’ll need to contact your local Ford service center and schedule an appointment to have a new Admin key created for your vehicle. Once you have the new Admin key, you’ll get the option to clear the current settings.
So, the “admin” key is any extra key you have for the vehicle?? And “that” key should not be used to program mykey? Does that mean… if I just swap out my keys, I will no longer have limits?
The Admin key is basically the master key to your vehicle. Typically, when you buy a new vehicle, you get two key. One of those keys will be the Admin key. The admin is required in order to change or remove the MyKey settings.
I recently purchase my 2014 Ford Explorer XLT. The first couple of thousand miles everything seemed to be fine. As in the way the vehicle is drives, it’s GREAT!
I also only have 1 key! It must not be the admin key because the option to disable the MyKey Setting does not pop up either…
However, the top speed and volume limit just showed up and it’s got me topped out at 80 mph and my volume on a 15 level.
Since it wasn’t activated when I purchased it. Could I’ve set it using the key that is not an admin key? If not, why did it activate itself?
The MyKey system doesn’t require the Admin key to be activated. It’s only required to deactivate or clear the current settings.
Cost to disable mykey without admin key
The admin key is required in order to clear the MyKey settings. There’s no other way to do it. If you don’t have your vehicle’s Admin key, you’ll have to purchase a new one from your local Ford service center. Please contact them for a price quote.

No.
Hi I have both keys. I made the mistake of activating the MyKey with both keys in the car, it even shows 2 Admin Keys active. There are only 2 keys. And it will not give me the option to deactivate or edit MyKey setting.
When deactivating the MyKey program, the MyKey must *NOT* be inside the vehicle. Only the Admin Key can be inside the vehicle.
My MyKey was somehow set accidentally and I do not have a spare. How can I fix this without paying over $300 for a new key from the dealership. I can not afford that at this time.
The Admin key is required to clear the settings. If you don’t have the vehicle’s Admin key, you’ll need to have a new one made for your vehicle.
Hi Team, thanks for the great article. I have a 2017 Mustang GT with MyKey activated. I’m just wondering if I can re-program my second key to be the admin key, as the key chain connector has broken on the admin key.
Also, if I clear/disable the MyKey option then does that automatically make my second key work like an admin key I.e. it has access to all menu features?
A Ford service center can reprogram both keys and there can only be one Admin key at a time.

Hi…I recently purchased a 2018 Ford Mondeo Hybrid with just 1 key. When I go to MyKey in the menu option, I dont have the option to clear MyKey however it says 1 MyKey…..Miles and 1 Admin Key. So what does this mean? Does this mean my key is the admin key or not? If not, why does it say Admin Key and why cant I clear MyKey. Please advise. Thank You
You will see a listing for an Admin key because there is always an Admin key programed to the vehicle. It sounds as if the key you have is the MyKey, so you won’t see the option to clear the settings. You’ll need to have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.

The directions we offer would not work for your vehicle because of its age. Please contact your local Ford service center for assistance.
We bought this 2014 Ford Focus and came with only one key, there was the MyKey on it before we bought it, and can’t figure out how to disable it. Would we have to buy a new key for the mykey controls to disable or is there still a way to take it off? We’ve looked through the settings and there is no MyKey selection part.
If you don’t have the vehicle’s Admin key, you’ll need to have a new one made for your vehicle.
I activated my key and I’m trying to disable but when I go to the menu and in the settings it’s not showing to clear all keys how do I disable

You need the vehicle’s Admin key in order to remove the current MyKey settings. If you don’t have the Admin key, you’ll need to contact your local Ford service center and have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.

That means you’re not using the vehicle’s Admin key.

Does anybody know how to unmute the audio on a 2011 Ford Edge. It’s saying when I press the audio button it is mute. I have tried everything I am not even able to connect with Bluetooth. I am only able to use an aux. I see in the manual I am able to but don’t know how to fix this issue.
That is not related to the MyKey program. You’ll need to contact your local Ford service center for more help.
My car was running fine. I turned it off like normal but I tried to start it again and nothing was working and MyKey was somehow turned on? It will start but no lights no radio no trunk and it won’t switch gears?
Those problems are not related to the MyKey program. MyKey has to be manually turned on. It doesn’t just come on. You’ll need to contact your local Ford Service Center for a proper diagnostic test.

How much does the dealership charge for that work to remove it

I had this 2012 Ford Explorer for three months the battery dies and my key the only key I have isn’t the admin key I don’t have any other keys what do I do
You can have a new Admin key made at any Ford service center. However, the MyKey program won’t make the vehicle’s battery die. That’s an issue you need to have diagnosed by a service advisor.

What if not knowing what the f**k you were doing and you turned your admin key into the MyKey and one key is all you got and you’re too poor to go to the dealership
You can’t turn the Admin key into a MyKey. Sounds like what you did was turn a regular key into a MyKey. The MyKey system does not require a key to set up. It only requires the Admin key to clear the settings. You’ll need to contact your local Ford service center and have a new Admin key made for your vehicle.

No, that won’t work. It’s not like an error code.
You’ll want to make sure you only have one key in the vehicle at a time. If neither key works at that point, you don’t have the vehicle’s Admin key and will need to have a new one made.
