Your post is a bit unclear. Do you mean that you bought a remote from eBay without a key, so you have 2 remote fobs but only 1 key blade?
If so and its a 3 button remote, there are two types of key coding, one to open/close the central locking and another to start the engine.
You can code a remote to the central locking if you only have one.
But , if you want to code another key to start the engine (as Dal's post), you must already have two keys which can lock/unlock the car
and start the engine.
If you only have 1 key coded to the engine, you do need to have another key coded by Ford or a locksmith that has the equipment.
Once you have two keys coded to the engine, (and you've found out how much it costs!), its worth getting a third key (none remote is cheapest) to code yourself, so if one goes wrong, you still have two working and can code another.
