I have a keyless remote already programmed, but I bought another one and I needed to program it and it does not work. it says to open and close the switch 8 times and doors should lock to let you know that it started the programing but it does not do that. Any suggestions on why?
Programming a key fob is all about timing. You are most likely doing everything correctly, just not in the correct time sequence. Keep at it, it might take you a dozen times, but you can get it. A tip is to do it as quickly as possible.
Here are the programming instructions:
*** THERE ARE 2 POSSIBLE PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES. ***Procedure #1Note: Obtain all remote transmitters for this vehicle.
Note: Do not depress the brake pedal during procedure.
Procedure #2Note: Obtain all remote transmitters for this vehicle.
Bonus Tip: You can save time and money purchasing a Ford Explorer Key Fob online from Keyless Entry Remote Inc.
Reading your post you mention to "open and close switch"..not sure what refering to...these are the instructions from your vehicles service manual...good luck!
