Default Keyless entry help?

Is there a way to check to see it the car is equip with keyless entry? I just bought it and its a 2000 stang. It has electric door locks, but the guy didn't give me the a keyless entry remote. Shouldn't it have one?

Do you know anybody who has a Ford keyless entry fob? Borrow it & try programming it for your car

so if it was equipt with keyless entry, it would have the switch in the truck but if it didnt have keyless entry, then it wouldn't have the switch???

My 2000 has it from factory, and it isn't a premium package either. I don't know if there is a difference between a GT and a v6, but for my GT it was there. And like you, I had to go and buy two fobs (from ebay), programmed them, and it works great.

Easiest way is to cycle the ign key on and off, on the last time, 6 or 8 times within about 20 seconds. If it has remote entry, the door locks will cycle. If they cycle, then get you a couple of remote fobs (4 button) then do the same thing, but when locks cycle, push a single button on each remote.

I had the same problem when I bought my car. I went directly to the dealer and they sold me the keyless entry remote for 45 bucks. They also reset it for me. I am sure if you call a dealer they can order it for you. Hope this helps.
