Under the dash to the right of the steering colum is a gray 2 prong plug with nothing plugged to it. Get a paper clip and touch the terminals together until door locks cycle. Then press unlock button and its programmed. No dealer needed. The key fob comes with instructions

I bought a key fob and blank key together and then you have to take it to a dealer to have it programmed to your car and have the key cut. I think it cost around 75 to 100. You will also have to give them your original remote since they have to program both at the same time. Hope this helps.

I would call the dealer and ask. I had my key cut at a locksmith but they could not program it so they gave me a # to someone who would come to me. Still saved $20 getting the dealer to program it, plus if it ever has problems I know where to find them.

The short answer ? Don't buy it. Yes, understood that the key needs to programmed. But it's not as simple as sounds. The locksmith you go to would have to have the same equipment that the key understands. If their programmer is not from the same company, it will not communicate with this key. ALSO, if you get this key, DO NOT try it in your vehicle! Nissan AND a local locksmith both told me the same thing. It could shut your car off and have to be towed to the dealer. ($$$) Best thing to do is go to a local H/W store or other high tech key maker and have them do it.. Good Luck

All the buttons work flawlessly when programmed. You will have to go to a dealer and have them program it. I called around to the dealerships in my area and was able to find one the programmed it for free. I was in and out in less than 5 minutes.

Hello Frances,I found programming this remote to be a little bit challenging. I don't think that you would need to go to a locksmith, but it won't be as easy as pressing 1,2,3. You have to try it a few times in order to get the sequence working for your vehicle. I can tell you that I tried for about 20 minutes unsuccessfully, before getting it to work but It has been working great ever since.

Yes take the key to your local ford dealer. The programming will cost about $100

yes, process requires the 2 to program the third, else a trip to the dealer is required. As for what the dealer does to get around it to my knowledge is classified but maybe the ford blog site might have that info on what to do if you do not have the 2 keys. Bull__it information should never be held captive but good luck.

I believe you have to take it to a dealer to be programmed. I googled how to do it and it wasn't working so that's what I did. Costed 40 bucks.

from what i googled, the instructions told me to turn the key WITHOUT starting the car 8 times. on the eight time leave it in the on position then hit one of the buttons on the fob. then turn key to the off position and remove the key. Push another button on the fob to ensure the programming took. good luck. try URL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mG3R58-24QU (copy and paste into browser

You need 2 programmed keys to program it yourself, if you only have one then you would have to go to a locksmith or the dealer to get it programmed.

I used this product for a 2004 F-350, worked great and with the instructions that were included it was easy to program. I didn't check to see if the model number was the same. Hope this helps.

We took it to the dealer and had them program it. It was not cheap to have that done.

You can google how to program your fob. I watched a video on YouTube on how it do it. I programmed mine by turning my key on and off 8 times. But the fob just doesn't work for my 06 Taurus

I'm not positive, but I talked to a mechanic at a dealer and he went through some elaborate sequence of opening and closing the door coordinated with locking and unlocking the doors and switching the ignition off and on. He had to try several times before it worked. I tried several times to repeat the process and was never successful. I finally gave up and paid the guy for the second one.
