Cutting and programming
The blade must be cut for your vehicle. The key must also be programmed so it can start the engine and operate remote entry. Ford’s 2013 Explorer owner’s guide permits owner programming of a spare integrated keyhead transmitter only when you already have two programmed coded keys. That procedure programs both the immobilizer and remote functions; it is not the generic eight-ignition-cycles procedure.
If you do not have two working programmed keys, arrange cutting and programming with a qualified automotive locksmith or Ford dealer. Consult the 2013 Explorer owner’s guide for Ford’s exact procedure and safety instructions.
Confirm before ordering
A matching year and trim alone do not establish key fitment. Compare the original key’s FCC ID, part number, blade profile and four-button layout. If any marking differs or the vehicle has push-button start, verify the correct key by VIN before purchase.
This is a third-party aftermarket replacement. Ford names and part numbers are used only to identify compatibility; the item is not manufactured by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Ford.
2013 Ford Explorer key questions
How do I program a new key fob for a 2013 Ford Explorer?
For this standard-ignition remote head key, Ford’s 2013 Explorer guide gives an owner spare-key procedure if you have two previously programmed coded keys. The new blade also needs to be cut. If you have fewer than two working keys, a qualified automotive locksmith or Ford dealer can handle programming. This four-button replacement is ready for that fitment check and service.
Can I choose this Explorer key using my VIN?
Yes. The VIN lookup helps narrow the right key. For this listing, confirm standard turn-key ignition, the four-button lock/unlock/2× liftgate/panic layout, FCC ID CWTWB1U793 and reference part 164-R8073 against your original key or a Ford parts lookup.
Where is the FCC ID on my original key?
Check the back of the keyhead or inside its battery cover for “FCC ID.” Matching CWTWB1U793 and the key’s physical layout helps you order the correct replacement; our FCC ID guide explains the check.
