IF you took too long to change the batteries in the remote it may have lost some memory. The remote can be reprogrammed by a service dealer but they will need the remote and the car to do the job.

SOURCE: focus remote key fob not working

this info would cost you £30.+ at ford Radio Frequency Programming Instructions:

  • Insert the ignition key and turn from position II (Ignition) to position 0 (All off) and back four times within three seconds.
  • Remove the ignition key. The locking control system is now in "learn mode" for the next 20 seconds and the red warning system LED (By the clock) stays on continuously to indicate this.
  • During the 20 seconds press one of the transmitter buttons. The remotes signal and code number is learned by the locking module and is indicated by flashing the warning system LED.
  • Wait until learn mode times out (20 seconds) or switch the ignition back to ON.nfrared Programming Instructions:
  • Put your key into the ignition and turn to position 1 (Radio). After approximately 10 seconds the red alarm control LED (next to the clock) should illuminate. As soon as it comes on remove the key from the ignition - the LED should remain lit.
  • Point the remote's "eye" at one of the front door sensors and press the rear button until the light on the transmitter illuminates (Keep the button pressed)
  • With the rear button held in press the front button 4 times then release both at the same time. The control lights in both clock and fob will flash 4 times to indicate programming complete.
  • Turn the ignition back on to exit programming mode

SOURCE: Power locks won't work from remote

No you dont have to reprogram the remotes. Please give as much info as you can about the problem. What is working and not working. Is every other function working with the unit. Is this an after market autostart or OEM (from FORD) or is it one of the vehicle security systems?

SOURCE: lock remote stopped working. changed baterry,

some auto parts stores have a display at the counter where they sell new remotes or fob's. The display has a sensor that lights up when you use your remote. Point the remote at the display and press any button if the light comes on your fob is likely ok. may need to check the receiver. good luck

SOURCE: keyless remotes not working

Try reprogramming the remotes. Here are the instructions for the procedure. Hope it helps. Cobra!
Programming NOTE: All keyless entry remote transmitters (15K601) must be programmed at the same time.
NOTE: To program (or reprogram) the keyless entry remote transmitters into the RAP module, perform the following steps:

  1. Make sure that the anti-theft system is not armed or triggered.
  1. Turn the ignition switch (11572) from OFF to RUN eight times within ten seconds, ending in RUN. If the RAP module has successfully entered program mode, it will lock and then unlock all doors.
  1. Within 20 seconds, press any button on a keyless entry remote transmitter, and the doors will lock and then unlock to confirm that each keyless entry remote transmitter has been programmed. Repeat this step for each transmitter.
  1. If the door locks do not respond for any keyless entry remote transmitter, wait several seconds and press the button again. If the door locks still fail to respond, refer to Inspection and Verification.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, or wait up to 20 seconds after step 2, to exit program mode. If a keyless entry remote transmitter has been programmed (or reprogrammed), the RAP module will lock and unlock all doors one last time to confirm.

Remote key

Yes - Sometimes when the battery is replaced the key program can be corrupted. It would be a starting point to have the key reprogrammed just to eliminate it as a source of trouble.

My 06 taurus remote start stopped working along with remote door locks. i reprogramed the remote according to manual. this worked then it stopped working again. tried reprograming again now it doesnt work....

ummm does the remote have good batteries in it (sorry have to ask) most remotes need good power to send signals any distance and sometimes the signal will reflect off shiny surfaces and confuse the remote..are you shooting thru a window? thats fogged up? moisture will cause a drop in signal clarity(to includ the car windows and sheet metal as well. good luck and repost please..

Both car remote controls stopped working

The receiver probably just needed resetting and reprogramming. I am surprised three are working - normally the receiver will only allow two.

2003 honda pilot, remote control doesn't work even with new battery , light on remote control doesn't blink

did the light blink when it worked? It may need to b reprogrammed. check the owners manual, it should tell you how to program. If the fob is dead, check ebay for a new one, usually 50 bucks and the reprogram
