🔧 PRO TIP
The 2017 F-350 Smart Key uses a CR2450 cell, which is a larger coin cell than most people expect. If you swap in a CR2032 because that's what the hardware store had, the fob will either read weak or not at all, and you'll think the key died when you just used the wrong battery. The CR2450 is thicker, not just wider. Also worth knowing: Ford's smart key system on this generation stores fob credentials in the body control module, not just the instrument cluster. That means if you've had any module replaced at the dealer without proper key re-registration, the fob can stop being recognized entirely even though nothing is wrong with the fob itself. When owners report "key not detected" after a warranty repair, that's usually why.

2017 Ford F-350 Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

I was already in Oceanside when the call came in, parked near San Luis Rey finishing up an earlier job. Friday night, around 9pm.

A couple had been at a movie and walked out to their 2017 F-350 to find the fob had gone completely dark. No response from the doors, nothing on the push-button start. They didn't know about the backup start procedure where you hold the fob directly against the start button to borrow power from the vehicle's antenna. They assumed the truck was dead and they were stuck there until Monday.

They called me just to ask if anything could be done that late.

I was there in 15 minutes. The factory fob, the 5-button unit with the CR2450 cell, had a battery that tested at almost nothing. I swapped in a fresh CR2450 from the van, verified the cell was seated flush against both contacts, and walked through every button function right there in the parking lot. Push-button start responded on the first press. Doors, tailgate release, panic, all of it back.

They didn't need a new key. They didn't need a tow. They needed the right battery seated correctly, confirmed by someone who's done this enough to check the contact points rather than just drop a cell in and call it done.

They drove home that same Friday night. The dealer would have meant a flatbed, a Monday morning appointment, and a bill that was a fraction of what they would have paid me. Everything I needed was already in the van.

“My ignition would not turn in La Jolla and I thought I needed a tow. EZ Car Keyz repaired the ignition on the spot and also made a spare key for safety. The technician worked carefully and confidently.”

“We had one broken key for our Honda Civic and one working key for our Lexus. Tim came out and cut three remote car keys at a great price. All keys worked perfectly. Professional, courteous, and highly recommended.”

Ford F-350 Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

Do you use OEM or aftermarket keys on Ford vehicles?
Both exist in the market and they are not equal. For the 2017 F-350 Smart Key system, I use fobs built to factory spec, meaning the correct button count, the correct frequency, and a fresh CR2450 installed before I hand it to you. Ford's smart key registration is handled through the OBD port with professional equipment, so if the blank itself is low quality or cloned from an incorrect profile, you can end up with a fob that unlocks the doors but never gets recognized at the start button. That's a common pattern owners report on the forums: bought a fob online, got partial function, then paid a second time to have someone sort out why the truck won't start. Starting with a verified blank avoids that whole loop.
How long will a replacement key last on a 2017 F-350?
What if the new key stops working after a few weeks?
Can I add a spare key myself on a 2017 F-350, or do I need a tool?
The truck starts fine but the remote functions stopped working. Is the fob dead?
