Hello I have a 2013 Ford Fusion an it just won’t start the key was broke it was a FOB key but I purchased a new one an I had it programmed but it’s like the key not getting any juice to the [starter](/topics-starter-ford/) but the systt But the starter is good Mechanic's Assistant: Did the fob come with the vehicle, or did you buy a blank? I bought a blank an had it programmed at a Ford dealer the lights work the radio an beat it just won’t start Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Fusion yourself? What have you tried so far? I went an got the starter tested an I had the battery checked an it’s not a [transmissions](/topics-transmission-ford/) was good Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you?

What did the Ford Dealer say after Programming the FOB / REMOTE? Did it Start and Run at the Ford Dealer after Programming??

No it didn't they said they think it's a wire next to the key that's not getting no juice when the key get turnedI only had $15 left on my card sorry
Automotive Expert
Thank you for the added info........ Strange they didn't get it started or pinpoint the issue, as Dealer Scan Tool is needed to pinpoint the cause The only wires at the Ignition Switch that would have to do with NOT recognizing the Key is the Transponder Signal wire, in which you would need Testing equipment (Dealer Scan Tool or equal) to identify and repair

Thank you so much I have no clue
Automotive Expert
Very sorry.......This issue is not locate a wire and repair, as there is much more to why the Key is not identified and vehicle will not start Use of Ford Dealer Scan Tool or equal, is needed to Test, Program and Update the system to pinpoint the exact cause Many Automotive Shops can do this for less than Ford Dealer Some Mobile Locksmiths can come to you to do this also, but you need to contact them prior to any Repair to be sure they are aware of what happened. Let me know if you need further THANK YOU Thanks for using J/A

Thank you yea I used the lock Smith to program The blank key an it's still just power but it won't start I'll have to see
Automotive Expert
I understand.....Some Locksmiths cannot get into the Security System of the Vehicle like a Ford Dealer or a shop with the specific Scan Tool

Ok thank you
Automotive Expert
Could be something simple, but the TECH needs to know the background and have the ability to Test Hope you get this going THANK YOU Thanks for using J/A

Thank you so much I hope it is maybe alarm system or something thanks again
Automotive Expert
sorry for the delay......no internet IF the Factory Alarm was the issue, UNLOCK of the Door with Key or REMOTE would typically DISARM Sounds like the Key is not being recognized, which leads to use of Ford Dealer Scan Tool or equal to identify the issue THANK YOU Thanks for using J/A

Usually, a damaged transmission position sensor (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/symptoms-of-a-bad-or-failing-transmission-position-sensor-switch) will cause the symptoms you're describing, but it's very odd for a battery replacement to activate this problem. It's possible that this issue is non-related. The...
