remote entry
I have a 95 explorer with factory remote entry and alarm. I removed the battery last week to change it out and had the battery out for about 1/2 hour. When I put the new one in, neither the factory code on the key pad, nor the factory key fobs worked. I tried the key on/key off for five times at least three different occasions trying to reprogram the remotes but got no indication from the locks that the system was working. Any ideas on what may have happened or how to fix?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

remote entry
I finally fixed the remote reset on my '93 Explorer last week. The remote receiver is located in the LH aft sidewall by the rear window washer fluid container and below the electronic shift module (the box with the white switch on the bottom.
The ford manuals I borrowed from the library had conflicting info (I never found the J4 connector). I did find the white wire and the yellow white wire on the bottom (larger) connector attached to the remote receiver box. I pushed a wire about the size of a paper clip into the sockets of both of these wires with the ignition turned on. The locks cycled on and off. I hit a key on the fob and it did it again. I turned off the ignition and it did it for a third time. After that the fob worked!
Good Luck
