I recently got a 2018 Ford Escape and have no idea how to turn off the MyKey option. Is there a way to do this without the admin key?
Unfortunately, there’s no easy way to turn it off without having a second key that’s an admin key. Usually, it means getting a new key. Not sure if the Forscan method would work with yours.
Why would you want to turn it off? Asking for myself lol.
You can’t do it without an admin key. I had to buy a second key from the dealer to deactivate MyKey on the one that came with mine.

How much did it cost you to get a new admin key?
@Hartley
A brand new one is about $200, but there are plenty of refurbished ones available for cheaper.

It was about four years ago, but I remember it being around $60 for the new key. The price might have gone up by now.
If you were near me, I’d let you borrow one of my keys to fix it. Maybe a friend can help you out?
