man ssh-add(1)

-D      Deletes all identities from the agent.
-l        Lists fingerprints of all identities currently represented by the 
agent.

You can delete all identities, list them, to make sure there aren't any in the 
agent, and then re-add them with:
ssh-add <path-to-key-file> will add your key
