Neil replied: "Generally it is the car that has to be programmed to recognise the remote, and not the other way around. This is usually a job for a main dealer only, for security reasons."

Daniel R replied: "Their is no way to reprogram your remote. If you put in a new battery and it doesn't work then take it back to where you bought the car and make them buy you a new one. If you have to order one they are pricey so let them pay for it......good luck"

TIM44 replied: "i got ya man, i had this prob to....get into the car and LOCK the doors,then put the key into the ingtion,turn the ket to where the dash board lights come on,then go back to the postion to where you would put the key in,now,go back and forth doing that 12 times then HURRY and get out of the car shut the door and lock the doors,"you have 30sec to do this"and then it should work!! it tells you how to do this in your owners manal"

3520 replied: "I think you put the key off and on either 3 times or 4 times leaving it in the off position. Door locks should lock and unlock it you gain computer access, then press the lock on the remote. If it doesn't work, leave the key in the on position instead of off"

gee replied: ".fasten seat belts and lock all doors .turn ignition switch from position I to position II 4 times within 6 seconds .turn ignition switch to position I .programming mode activated for 10 seconds proceed as follows .press and hold lock,unlock or boot release button .wait for acoustic signal(indicates correct programming) .to exit programming mode .turn ignition switch to position III or wait 10 seconds"

TreeLimb replied: "Follow this procedure to program your factory remote transmitter for your Ford Focus: 1. Close all doors to make sure conflicting chimes do not sound during programming. 2. Turn the ignition switch from position I to position II four times within six seconds. 3. Turn the ignition switch to position 0. 4. A chime sounds and an LED will illuminate to indicate that the learning mode has been accessed and it is possible to program remote transmitters. 5. Within 10 seconds of the previous step, press any button on the remote transmitter being programmed until a chime is heard and the LED flashes. This indicates a new transmitter code has been successfully received. 6. After each successful remote transmitter programming, another 10 second learning mode is automatically entered, up to a maximum of four times. 7. To program additional remote transmitters, repeat step 5. 8. The system will exit the learning mode if the ignition switch is turned to position III, no new remote transmitter is programmed during the 10 seconds or if four remote transmitters have been programmed. NOTE: An incorrect programming procedure does not affect the stored codes. NOTE: A maximum of four remote transmitters can be programmed to the vehicle. Programming must be done at the same time for all the remote transmitters. NOTE: Before entering the remote transmitter programming mode, make sure that the vehicle battery is fully charged and that the anti-theft system is not armed or triggered (if equipped)."

Is it possible to reprogram a Ford Ranger keyless entry remote to a different vehicle? We sold the Ranger and found an extra keyless entry remote. Before we throw the remote away, does anyone know if it can be used with another car that also has keyless entry? Many thanks!!

Mustanger replied: "It should work with any Ford which uses the same type clicker, but the dealers mechanics would have to reprogram to that vehicle's computer."

catmandew replied: "Not sure, but I would think it should work with any Ford with a similar system. You could try the re-programing procedure, which can usually be found in the Owners Manual. If you don't have one for another Ford vehicle you might have, you can download a PDF copy for 1996 and later models here; If that doesn't work, I doubt that there's anything the dealer could do, at least that would be practical."

johnsusedcars replied: "if it doesn't have power locks, a remote will not unlock or lock your explorer."

J Stang replied: "It will not have a keyless entry fob if it doesn't have power locks. You can get aftermarket keyless for it though, at places like Best Buy, and other car audio stores."

Timbo is here replied: "No they change the systems over time so it is likely that ones from the Scorpio era may work or maybe only Scorpio ones."

When i reprogrammed the remote keyless entry the unlock/lock buttons didnt work only rhe alarm??!!? its a ford f150 supercrew 2001

JT B ford man replied: "Do it again, turn key on and off until door locks go down and proceed to push the buttons on fob the new one if the alarm still comes on you may have to many fobs already program in to the system and you have to delete them from your truck , let me know hope this helps."

ETHOL replied: "The remotes will only work to "lock/unlock" when the ignition is in the lock/off position. If you're testing the results of reprograming, with the key in the ignition & the ignition in any position, other than lock/off, your 'test' will give you the situation that you're describing. You may program up to 4 remotes & you must program them ALL at the same time. Try reprogramming again, using the EXACT directions on pages 97-99 of the owners manual. I will provide the link to download your manual in the sourcebox below. The download is FREE (taken from Fords website) & in pdf format. You should save the manual to your computer for future reference. I hope this helps."
