Key2GO

This feature is required if only one key is available. You can program the interface without the need for Key2GO if two keys

are present.

Key2GO has been designed and developed to bypass the advanced encryption layers found in modern vehicles. It uses an array

of servers to generate a duplicate of the original key, allowing the installation of a remote starter without having to give up a key.

The advantage is that this feature allows you to use one original key and the server to conﬁgure the bypass in the vehicle.

All Key2GO-compatible ﬁrmware are clearly indicated in the function list of each vehicle search result page and will also appear

on the ﬂash page. Any ﬁrst-time user must re-register to gain access to Key2GO, and some additional information will be required

to complete the registration process, such as your Directed account number and store name.

Key2GO is compatible with XKLoader2 and the online web tool, as well as XKLoader3 and the Directechs Mobile application.

Refer to “Module programming - 1-Key programming using Key2GO” on page <?> of this guide for instructions on how to

program features using Key2GO.

Understanding the difference between a Ford 80 & 40 bit

Ford introduced an 80-bit encryption in late 2009 and this caused a lot of confusion as to which models it was available on. The

main question is which models use the 80 and which use the old 40 bit?

Contrary to popular belief, the SA marking on the key does NOT indicate a vehicle uses 80-bit encryption. In reality, the SA

marking indicates that the key is 80-bit compatible, but the vehicle itself could still be using 40-bit encryption.

What does it mean?

It means that Ford did in fact release SA keys equipped with an 80-bit transponder, but the reality is that the same transponder

can also be used in 40-bit vehicle, making it backward compatible with older vehicles. Consequently, if you see an SA key it is

important that you do not automatically assume it is an 80-bit type. It all depends on the vehicle, not the key.

How do I differentiate between the 40 & 80 bit?

To determine which encryption type you are dealing with, you must test pin 1 at the 4-pin IMMO connector on the key barrel for

the following conditions to determine if it is 40 or 80-bit type.

An 80-bit vehicle should provide the following values:

• NO key in barrel: 0V

• Key in barrel with IGN OFF: (+) 12V

• Key in barrel with IGN ON: (+) 12V

A 40-bit vehicle should provide the following values:

• NO key in barrel: 0V

• Key in barrel with IGN OFF: 0V

• Key in barrel with IGN ON: (+) 12V
