How to Reset a 1999 Ford Explorer Keyless Entry
- 1). Turn the ignition key from "Off" to "Run" eight times in ten seconds. End the eighth time on "Run," not "Off." If you did it fast enough, the doors will lock and unlock to confirm it.
- 2). Press any key on the first keyless remote you want to work, including any that already work. Complete Step 2 within 20 seconds of completing Step 1. The door locks will cycle again to confirm that the remote was successfully programmed.
- 3). Repeat Step 2 with each subsequent remote. Complete each remote's programming within 20 seconds of the prior remote's programming.
- 4). Turn the ignition key to "Off" to exit the programming mode. The locks will cycle again to confirm the exit.
