    Default Bad Key

    My 2015 F3 has been giving me " BAD KEY" when I go to start it, it does this with both keys and will start after anywhere from 1 to 5 tries. Any ideas? Thanks, Dan
    P.S. I tried searching forum for answers but it won't let me search "bad key". Not enough letters in the words.

    I had the problem about a 6 months ago (2015 F3-S SE6) and my local dealer reset everything and it went away. But it is back again. Happens to me daily as well. No clue way. I just turn the key on and off several times till it starts. I carry both keys with me, just in case. Fails on both keys as well.
    God bless those who serve/served our country!

    Hey Dan. Google picks up threads from here really well. Just reference spyderlovers in the search box - such as "bad key spyderlovers".

    It's known as a DESS error.

    Search for DESS only in upper search box on this screen.
