In this video, we see how to enter programming mode for a Smart Key on a Ford C-Max MK2: in this case, it is a 2011 model. It is highly likely that this method can be used on all vehicles that have a start button instead of a key, on all Ford models.

In fact, we know that to enter this mode on models with a key, it is necessary to move the key from the zero position to one four times in six seconds, which is not possible with vehicles that have a push-button start. But the system is the same.

We must press the button four times in six seconds, and the car will signal with a sound that we have entered programming mode. Within ten seconds, we will press the button we want to program, and it's done!
