I want a second key for the 98 Mustang but the dealer wants $60 to program the $40 remote. I have seen remotes on E Bay. Is there a way to program them without using the dealer?</P>


Also the volume contol has lost its "spring" and just flops around, although it does work if feals crap to use. Can this be easily fixed?</P>


Does anyone have an owners manual to sell?</P>

 

Have you tried an auto alarm store or a locksmith? They may have a way to set it up. Maybe a "generic" replacement is available like the garage door openers.

 

To program- turn the ignition switch fromOFF toRUN eight times within 10 seconds, ending on RUN......the doors should lock and unlock(this means your in program mode)....press any button on the transmitter, the doors should lock and unlock to confirm it has been programed...if your gonna program another one, you must press any button on the 2nd one within 7.5 seconds after the first...hope this helps ya!!</P>

 

WAIT..DAMN....Thats for a newer one ..yours is a 1998... I'll post it later for your car....sorry

 

must work at the dealer , i though that was right ?

 

Is it a new pats key or is it a new remote key fob. If its a pats key the dealer needs to program it with a NGS or a WDS in less you already have to working keys then you can do it yourself. If its a new remote then you need to cycle the key off to on 5 or 8 times can't remember the amount. when cycled the correct amount the locks will cycle at that time press any lock button on the first remote and the locks will cycle then do the same thing for the second remote then cycle the key off and check the remotes they will now be programed.

 

been a while since i was at ford , if he does have a working , certain year he can go forward and see if the light goes off , i duuno been a year 1/2 since i left

 

I guess I was a little confusing. It is a second key that I want to program as I only have one. I wll get a second remote also so your advice on the 5 or 8 times on / off will come in handy. I guess I will have to fork out the $100 for a new key. It's a crazy amount of money to get a spare key. Isnt technology wonderfull!!!

 

A $100 is steep check with all ford,mercuy and lincoln dealer in your area you should be able to get it done for around $75.00 also call a lock smith and get there price for the pats key and have the dealer program it.

 

some one carries thoses key cheap , i forget who ,
