lucaspj35 Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Recently, the unlock button on my 2014 Edge SEL key FOB stopped working. It's quite obviously just the button is broken, all the other buttons work. My edge does not have remote start, so it's the 4 button FOB with lock, unlock, panic, and power liftgate buttons. I have read about ordering a replacement online, and the need for having two keys to program the replacement. The part I'm confused on, does that mean I need two working key FOBs to program a replacement? I bought my edge used, and it came with one key FOB, and one manual key. Is that enough to program a replacement? I assume so, because I believe that even the manual key would need to have a chip in order to start the car, or am I misunderstanding this? So if this is doable, I would order the replacement FOB off of amazon, get a locksmith to cut the new key, and follow the instructions to program the replacement key? Thanks for the help!

jmr061 Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 (edited) you need two keys that can start the car...does not matter if they have the fob built in or not. Edited December 27, 2020 by jmr061 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucaspj35 Posted December 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Worked like a champ. Ordered two replacement FOBs from Amazon. Then I took them to Batteries + bulbs to have the keys cut for $10/each. Brought them home and used Forscan to program the keys. Then followed the instructions here to program the FOB buttons to work! Easy-Peasey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveGranger Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I ordered only one from amazon and got it cut from an expert that works for a locksmith tampa firm near me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
