Today I'm gonna use Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus to decode a 2021- Ford HU198T key. This could be applied to 2024 Ford Mavericks, (2021-)F-150s, Escape, or (2023-) F250s emergency key as well.
Cut key >> Vehicle database >> Ford >> All key blank >> HU198T
There are 4 HU198T key blanks, the difference is the depth.
If select the second one, we can see down here, it has 5 depths.
If select the third one, this has 4 depths.
Since I'm not sure which is the correct option, I'll check both.

VVDI Key Tool Plus gives the key bitting code: 4421232112
If you decode it under 5 and at first glance you might say that's completely wrong. None of the numbers are the same.
The correct key code should be the same as the paper.
