When you use two keys to get the factory code to display, put one in the little slot in the center console key ring up, buttons facing the trunk. Push the start button but don't push the brake to actually start engine. Wait a few seconds, push the start stop button again to turn power off. Replace the first key with the 2nd key in the little slot facing the same direction and push start again (not pushing the brake) the same as the first time. Wait a few seconds and the factory code will appear on the display to the left of speedometer. It is a lot easier than getting up under the dash so long as you have 2 keys. Thanks for the end where you mentioned pushing the button without actually starting the engine...That's what I was doing wrong to begin with.
Christi Thompson I just got a certified used 2017 SE Hybrid, and I've tried this two key method. I even removed the key bades, and no code ever shows. It just sits on the alert of 'full accessory power active'. 🤔
@@Nickthecarguy Mine didn't. Looking back at the carfax, mine is a reposession, so I got 1 keyfob with a blank backup key. And they weren't giving me a second. Your instruction finally helped me get my code without spending 200 bucks on a fob! Now I can finally lock my keys in the car when going to the beach or the gym
@@mikedd87 It's probably worth getting another one made anyways in case the key is ever permanently lost or destroyed. Really, it ought to be legally required for the dealership to include a spare fob if they're going to charge so much to replace the only key that works. There's supposed to be a copy with a card in manual, but if you didn't get a manual, then it wouldn't be there either.
It definitely works, I have a 2019 Ford Fusion Energi Titanium. I used my iPhone 13 pro max.. the smaller the phone the better. All I can say thank you bro
Same here for my 2014 Fusion. I could also have removed a couple bolts to get the fuse box to move enough to get my phone behind it for a pic, but the scope was the easiest thing once I figured out where to point it.
I finally worked it out. Got my iPhone to wedge back there and record video with flash on, finally got it. Had to take the case off and everything to get in that narrow spot behind the fuse box. Actually saw 4 digits on my video and guessed the last one 😆
Just got mine. I don't have a bore scope so I had to remove the nut at the bottom holding the box in place and was able to move it out far enough to get my iPhone camera behind it and see the sticker
It was kinda helpful to know where the code is located but it would've been more helpful to actually see it. And u mentioned that there's a way for it to show up on the dashboard. It helps to actually see it for myself so I know exactly where to look. This video was only halfway helpful
@@marlyndelgado5121 no. I ended up taking it to the Ford dealership and a guy used the machine to look it up for me. Luckily he didn't charge me anything
work on my new to me 2020 fusion!!! thanks!! my poor husband! I owe him a back rub. He used his phone and recorded. We then were able to freeze the frame blow it up and make out the code. good looking out!!!
I was about to look for the code but I decided to check my owners manual first and thank God it was on a card on the flap for the owners manual. Lucked out
Have been looking for over a year and a half for this code and it is exactly where he said it was. It’s an awkward spot but I recorded it on my phone and once it was back there I moved it around to be sure I was able to get all the numbers, some are hidden. Sure enough it was right!
behind the fuse box there is a sticker, above the barcode is written the code of the key and the sequence of 5 numbers (to find mine I put a mirror and with the iPhone camera I recorded it until I could focus on the numbers) remember if you are using a mirror the numbers will be reversed
The factory code should work because aparently when you change the code the factory one stay but add the second code are you sure you typing the code right
All you need is you 2 fobs to get the code fob one turn to ignition on off putt fob 2 same thing your code appear s in the left display no fusebox fuzz
@@Nickthecarguy True, although, if you've only got one key, then you really want to get another one made as if you lose that key or it gets damaged, it can be very expensive to replace. If you've got the 2, making a 3rd is pretty inexpensive. I personally did this because this is a new to me car and I need to have a way to reenter the car if I forget my keys in there.
I ended up removing the bottom nut and loosening the fuse box so I could get my camera back there to record the number, now that I’m done I’m sure that I’ll need back surgery, what a pain in the ass!
I have a 2014 Fusion Hybrid and I believe that the code sticker was placed during assembly of the fuse box. So Ford definitely didn't want to have it easy to find because they prefer that the Ford dealer get some income finding it for you. Think that you saved some money looking for it yourself, just as if you changed the wheels yourself instead of a tire shop or a dealer. BTW, I am also six feet tall but flexible enough to take a picture of the code sticker.
@@Nickthecarguy Yes, a borescope or endoscope is worth it, if the alternative is screwing up the fuse box or paying the dealer. I couldn't get my scope in properly, but I was able to clearly read 3 of the digits, immediately guess one and only have 3 of the 10 digits to choose from for the 5th digit. Not ideal, but worth it considering the alternative was actually loosing bolts to get a better view. I did find that I had to move my fob a good distance from the car in order to actually verify that the code I was using was correct.
@@raymondramirez9177 Possibly, although if you have 2 keys you can use them to get the car to tell you what the code is and it's supposed to be included on a card that comes with the manual as well. This is something that those of us that bought used cars have to do, or those with careless spouses.

Yes I heard that will work but sometime dealer ship don't give two keys when you buy pre owned vehicle

Thanks! The "little slot" meaning, between the two cup holders. The key wedges in there just right per your instructions.

I can confirm this works for a 2020 Fusion. Had to use boroscope and video it but it was there. Thanks dude.
Same here for my 2014 Fusion. I could also have removed a couple bolts to get the fuse box to move enough to get my phone behind it for a pic, but the scope was the easiest thing once I figured out where to point it.
I just got the code for a 2015, exactly where you said behind the fuse box. THANK YOU!
How’d you see back there?
I finally worked it out. Got my iPhone to wedge back there and record video with flash on, finally got it. Had to take the case off and everything to get in that narrow spot behind the fuse box. Actually saw 4 digits on my video and guessed the last one 😆
Yea that's what I had to do was get my phone and film for a while til I seen the numbers
Just got mine. I don't have a bore scope so I had to remove the nut at the bottom holding the box in place and was able to move it out far enough to get my iPhone camera behind it and see the sticker
Works on a 2019 Fusion Hybrid!!! Thank you so much!

good looking out!!!
Thank you, stuck my phone behind the fuse box and captured the code
I was about to look for the code but I decided to check my owners manual first and thank God it was on a card on the flap for the owners manual. Lucked out
Really, all of the dealers should be providing that card and 2 key fobs, although 2 key fobs gets you the code without the manual.

I think I need the scope for quick and easy read of a key code. Where can I buy one?
thanks a bunch. Found it exactly where you said it would be what a pain to get a picture!
I can't say thank you enough! Got it! 😁
Worked just as you said
Where did u buy that device from?
This is how I got mine: place your phone in there while video recording. Go back and watch your video. BOOM.
Will this work for all Ford models f150, Focus etc. from 12-17?
I know the 15 and newer it will work
The factory code on mine doesn’t work, I think a previous owner changed it to a custom code, does anyone know how to reset it or reprogram it. Thx!
The factory code should work because aparently when you change the code the factory one stay but add the second code are you sure you typing the code right
My factory code doesn’t work. Entered it and dooors don’t unlock. All my buttons work and light up so it ain’t that
@@QthAgR8 page 66 of the manual notes that you should enter the code more slowly. you have 5 seconds max to press the next button in the sequence
@@QthAgR8 and if it still doesn't work, then the fusebox might be from a different vehicle. the factory code cannot change.
@@HeshWantsCandy And for some folks entering the code backwards seems to work.
I just got my 2017 Ford fusion se and I'm having the same problem trying to get the code to unlock the door without the keys
Can I do it only with one key?
You will need two keys to find it unless you pull off the bcm and read the code on the back of the bcm
All you need is you 2 fobs to get the code fob one turn to ignition on off putt fob 2 same thing your code appear s in the left display no fusebox fuzz
What if we dont have two key some people was only giving one key

If you've got 2 fobs you can just stick them in the hole. Giggity.
can some one show how to disconnect my key sttings with only one key and if its possible
Juan Euresti I don't think it's possible if you don't have the other key. Unless the dealer ship can do it

I did this for my 2016 Fusion SE. I was able to finally get a good video, but the code didn’t work.
I know it sound weird but are you hitting each key one time should be a 4 digit code
I typed the 5 digit code in a couple times.
It have to work some how because that code is integrated into the bcm it cant be changed unless they replace the whole bcm
