Programming FOB failed HELP or Idea

Ok, I have a class C on a 2014 Ford E450. I’m trying to program another fob. Instructions in owners manual say to cycle key on and off 8 times and end in the on position then push any button on the fob but it’s not working and the original fob still working so nothing happens. I need ideas. I just bought the coach but only has one set of keys so I’m trying to make up a second set. The food is a 3 button fob. This unit doesn’t have the type of fob with the key built in it. The key is totally separate.

  • Did you close all doors then open drivers door and press the unlock button on driver’s door while it was open then i
    put the key in ?
  • I wish you better luck than I had with this on a Toyota Sienna. I followed similar instructions from a forum post that claimed to work. I think I paid $20 on eBay for a genuine Toyota key with chip. Nice looking key but I don’t think it had the chip. The dealer wanted $100 to try programming it or $170 for a new key guaranteed to work. The latter was the better deal.
