Review: Just a new casing, but that's what I needed. - I missed that this is just a new shell, but it turns out to be exactly what I needed. Pulled my battery and circuit board from the old fob and put it in the new one. Works great. HINT: to get the back on is a little tough. Once you get it mostly on, place the fob key pad down on a solid surface and give it a whack with the heel of your palm. It will snap on nicely. I just moved my original "hidden" key to the new fob.
Review: Changer battery my before trying to reprogram - CHANGE THE BATTERY BEFORE PROGRAMMING. The battery was likely dead when I tried to reprogram so it failed. Once I found a video of how to reprogram my key on YouTube, the guy suggested replacing the battery. Once I replace the battery with a new one, the reprogramming worked within one try. I found no issues with the valet key fitting or locking into place. Very nice product! Durable and compatible with our 2017 Ford Flex. Our manual had old instructions in it so we had to YouTube how to actually do it with a keyless fob. All steps consecutive within 30 minutes: 1. Get in car with both old fobs that work and set down somewhere in car. Let screens/accessory power turn off. Put NEW fob in center console key area (key ring be at the rear with the buttons facing toward the right-hand side). 2. Press driver or passenger unlock button 3 times 3. Press brake pedal once 4. Press driver or passenger lock button 3 times 5. Press break pedal once 6. Press start/stop button (some flash some don’t) 7. Wait 5 seconds, take new key out of center console and check to see if lock, unlock, tail gate work. If not, wait one minute and try again. We will see how long it lasts…. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent: cheap replacement for the original key case
*by M***V on September 26, 2018*

The good: This is a replacemente shell for the original key. We have a 2013 CMax Energi Plugin. I was able to disassemble the original key and move the battery, circuit and contacts to the new shell and it worked perfectly. No need for reprogram or expensive trip to the dealer. The not so good: the quality is not as the original as it feels lighter and the button feel less durable but for the price i cannot complain. The process: I am an Engineer but as long as you are fairly comfortable with opening and closing gadgets, then you should be able to do it without any problem. In my case, my key spent too much time on my bag and the button have been pressed to hard to the point that the key will randomly press the button and unlock the car or bring the windows down. I opened the original key twice and tries to rearrenge the contacts from the button, however i knew that they were too eroded to save, so i looked at this shell replacement which came with the new buttons and contacts (exactly what i needed to make the key new again) How to do the transfer: 1) Pry open your old key through the metalic side. Dont be afraid as you wont break it. Just use a small flat screwdriver. 2) Once open, take the clock battery out. 3) Take the metal that holds the battery in place out as well as you will need it. Careful not to bend it too much. 4) take the small board from the other side of the key. Make sure you have some bracelet to discharge your body to avoid burning any component. Or just hold it with small pliers. 5) remove the plastic case embedded on the circuit. 6) (optional) use a bit of rubbing alcohol to clean the contacts on the circuit board. It doesnt hurt but do it with some qtip and alcohol and very careful. 7) open the new shell. 8) place the plastic holder on the circuit 9) place the board on the shell 10) insert the metal piece on the other side of the shell and then set the battery in place (make sure you dont invert the position of the battery) 11) close the shell 12) transfer the physical key from the old shell to the new shell. Or just make a copy of the physical key on a normal locksmith place (it comes with a new blank key) Close and test. It should work as new.
