Dealer unable to program spare key

2008 SuperDuty F250 6.4
Went to the local Ford dealer this AM to get a spare key (the truck came with only one key and fob)
From what I've read I cannot program a second key myself as I have to have at least 2 working keys ergo I was at the dealer
The dealer cut a key and was unable to program the key chip to start the truck and the key is only good to open doors
They cut another key and had the same problem
I now have two keys that only open the doors and do not start the truck
The service writer explained that there was a problem elsewhere in the truck and they would have to trace wires and who knows what else $$$
Has anyone had a problem getting keys programed?
Any ideas what the trouble might be?
