Programming Instructions: Note: The programming procedure is identical for many Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles, as well as for the Mazda Tribute and Mazda B-Series truck.
Sit in the truck’s driver’s seat. Put the key in the ignition. Turn the key from OFF to RUN at least 8 times within a 10 second window. NOTE: You must do this very quickly for it to work. If successful, you’ll hear the doors lock and unlock. This lets you know the system is ready to accept the remote. Push any button on the remote. The door locks will lock and unlock. The remote is programmed.

Do you know how to tell if the remote/key fob you have is for the vehicle you have? I have a 2006 Ford Ranger Pickup STX. The key fob I have has a label inside with the number 2045 on it. Does that tell which Ford it fits?

Hi Richard.
Ford remotes will work with most Ford vehicles. They use the same keyless entry module for all models.
