Purchased 2008 Mercury Sable....trying to program keyless entry code. I follow directions and disable factory code and then directions stop. I tried putting in my personal code but nothing happens.Directions are to put in the factory code...then punch and hold 3&4 while holding 3&4, press and release 7&8...while still holding 3&4, press and release 7&8 a second time...release 3&4...thus ends instructions...so I put in my personal code..........nothing ....bummer...any help would be appreciated...

 

Well on my Marquis it says to enter factory code, press 1-2, then enter new five digit code. Now you should have two codes, factory code and your code to operate the keypad. Pressing 3-4 after entering code will open all doors, 5-6 opens trunk.

The factory set code cannot be reprogrammed but you can create your own 5�digit personal entry code. When pressing the controls on the keypad, press the middle of the controls to ensure a good activation.


Up to three personal entry codes may be programmed to the vehicle. To create your own personal entry code:



<UL>
<LI>1. Enter the factory set code.
<LI>2. Within five seconds press the 1 � 2 on the keypad.
<LI>3. Enter your personal 5-digit code. Each number must be entered within five seconds of each other.
<LI>4. Press 1 � 2, 3 � 4 or 5 � 6 to indicate which of the three personal entry code positions you wish to use.
<LI>5. The doors will again lock then unlock to confirm that your personal key code has been programmed to the module. </LI>[/list]

Tips:
<UL>
<LI>Do not set a code that uses five of the same number.
<LI>Do not use five numbers in sequential order.
<LI>The factory set code will work even if you have set your own personal code.
<LI>If you program a code to a position that already contains a set code, the previously-set code will be erased. </LI>[/list]

<UL>
<LI>1. Enter the factory set 5�digit code.
<LI>2. Within five seconds, press the 1 � 2 on the keypad and release.
<LI>3. Press and hold the 1 � 2 for two seconds. This must be done within five seconds of completing Step 2. </LI>[/list]

All personal codes are now erased and only the factory set 5�digit code will work.
