I think that's what they're called. The factory remotes, to lock and un-lock door's, and panic alarm "Key Fobs"............
I have a hand full, and a buddy at work could use a pair. But how do you go about programming/re-programming them?????

this this is from my 08 manual.
1. shut all doors and unlock electronically
2. put key in ignition
3. cycle 8 times rapidly (within 10 seconds) from position 1 (off) on the ignition to position 3 (on) Note: the 8th turn must end with the 3 (on) position. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm programming is activated.
4. Within 20 seconds press any button on key fob. Note: if longer than 20 seconds you will need to repeat previous steps.
5. Repeat step for for each key fob.
6. turn ignition to off position after you have programmed all key fobs. The doors will then lock and unlock to confirm.
7. good luck

 

So??? Did the above work?

 

I'll know this saturday afternoon. A buddy at work needs some fobs, and I have atleast four here. My 01 has an aftermarket alarm, and remote start so I don't need them.
We're putting on a halloween thing this saturday and try it then. I built a casket out of some old plywood shelving (Yes there were a few beer's involved). We've got chain saw's, fog machines, strobelights and even a church groupe that's showing up this year. I'll be a (possibly drunken) werewolf coming out of the casket.

I read the same steps, but I thought you had to have 2 of the pats keys to make it work. Keep us updated. I want to know for my explorer.
