From the Owners Manual:
To program the key yourself you need two working transponder keys.
1. Insert an existing working key into the ignition cylinder.
2. Turn the ignition cylinder to ON (RUN) and back to OFF.
3. Remove the existing working key and, within five seconds, insert a second working
key and turn it to ON (RUN) then back OFF.
4. Remove second working key and insert the new key before ten seconds have
elapsed and turn it to ON (RUN). Leave it on for one second and turn back to OFF.
5. The security light will light up for three seconds to indicate that the new
key has been successfully programmed.
If you don't have two working keys you need to go to a locksmith or a dealership to have it programmed with specialty equipment.
I'm going to assume you want programming instructions for the transponder (transmitter responder) keys on a Ford Windstar.
In order to do the programming yourself you will need two already programmed keys. If you don't have two then you can't access your car's learn mode feature.
