There’s a whole section in the manual. You need to figure out which fob is your admin fob and use that one to start the truck.

Getting a new phone is irrelevant to the problem.
I've personally experienced issues by not deleting them before trying to add a new primary phone is why I mentioned it, never know.

I said it was My Key behavior back in post 6.

Ok then, I've just spent the past 30 mins looking thru every menu on every screen and unless my truck is special, there are NO settings for My key. Not on the center stack 15" nor on the IPC via steering wheel button control menus.

I can't find any reference to My key in my owners manual either. So now we have more questions than answers it seems.

Because it is no longer a feature... Removed in 2024.

That would explain why I don't have it lol. I know for a fact my 2013 has it because it gave me a few grey hairs trying to figure out how to disarm it when I got it new. 😂
Just curious, does yours mute the radio if you unbuckle? The OP doesn’t have their year in their profile so I’m wondering if they made that a standard on the newer ones.

If it's not buckled by the time I hit 5mph, it pings constantly until buckled but the audio doesn't drop and I've never seen the ops dash warning.

Made MyKey restrictions the default? That would piss off most owners, includes speed restrictions.

No, they just removed it.

I doubt they would do it intentionally but this is Ford software we’re talking about.

I believe they just renamed it to valet mode which mine does have, it's not controlled by a certain key, it uses a code you decide for yourself. It limits some features of the touch screen, the radio being one of them, no idea if it includes a speed restriction.

You did this yourself. You have activated MyKey, and it's doing exactly what you told it to.

No, valet mode exists too.

Apparently the 25 ym is a fresh start for a lot of things. The manual looks completely different as well. I like the old format better.

Mine eventually stops but it's long enough I'd buckle long before. But I always buckle if my expected speed is over 35, even not its still 75%
