Only in cold mornings, when I start my 2011 Taurus SHO, the info center says no key detected. I then have to lock and unlock the car, and then start the vehicle.

Is this situation happening to anyone else? Does this just mean a battery swap on the key fob?

It's happened to me.  Change your fob battery. It should correct the issue.

Just started happening to me. Anyone know what the battery is off the top of their head?

Def change battery, don't take the chance you have to have the key reprogrammed to your vehicle.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

If new battery doesn't fix it or if anyone ever has an issue that states "No Key", unplug the battery for 20 minutes to cure.
