How do I activate my eWID device to use the FordPass®* App?

Activating your eWID device within the FordPass App enables your access to remote functionality. Use the steps below for activation guidance.

Important: To reduce software complexity and increase quality, FordPass will be sunsetting support for EPID (Enterprise Plug-in Device) vehicles and eWID (Enterprise Wired-in Device). This product has enabled 2010-2018 model year Ford vehicles with connected vehicle features similar to FordPass.

These impacted vehicles will no longer have the ability to activate or use connected features in FordPass after April 3, 2023.

  1. Ensure that your device and key fob were activated by your dealership.
  2. Navigate to the Home screen.
  3. Tap Activate Vehicle.
