lol, no worries. That's happened to me many times.
I used FORScan last night to delete the keys in PATS. I had two keys when I bought the truck. One started the truck while the other one was cut never turned the truck on. It would just make the security light hyper flash. Read the how to and figured lets try it. Had to wait 12 minutes for the built in self security of the PCM but after that it was a 2 minute process of deleting the old known keys and then adding two back in. Now both keys start and operate the truck with zero issues. My spare key comes in on Friday so I will be able to program that using the standard insert 1st key, on/off, insert 2nd key on/off, then do the spare and it should be fine.
FORScan is awesome. Really wish I would have used this years ago. Also makes trouble shooting very easy. Found a couple issues that a normal scanner did not pick up..

Interesting, can you post the "How-To", something to keep a file on !
I found a site that sells Programable Ford Keys for the '03, about $18/ea.
I thought you could have only two keys at a time programed, I didn't know a spare could be made... another something to look into; let us know if you can programs more than two keys.
