Put your key in "on" position, and install the new battery.
Start by replacing the battery in the remote.
On a 1997 Ford Explorer : If each remote takes ( 2 ) coin style lithium 3 volt batteries ( like the 1995 and 1996 models do ) ( it is the # 2016 battery )
I just bought a 1996 2.0 ghia with remote locking however the remote still doesn't work so if you figure that out after the battery, will be much appritiated! its a CR2016 by the way
You should be able to get in the Explorer , lock the doors if you wish , and then start the vehicle . That's what I do on my 1995 Explorer XLT
I was looking at the 1997 Ford Explorer Owner Guide and all it shows is that each remote takes ( 2 ) three volt lithium batteries ( I assume that it would be the same as my 1995 Ford Explorer remotes , and the 1996 Ford Explorer owner guide ) ( each remote takes two # 2016 , three volt lithium coin style batteries )
When i first bought the wii remote charger, it said to charge for 12 hours but i only ended up charging for twenty minutes. The battery life is now poor, what can i do
i have a 2001 jetta and my key remote doesn't work.. i though it was the battery and i bought a new battery but it still doesn't work..??
On my 96 Camry, there is a "kill" switch on the front left of the floorboard on the driver's side. If you switch it, it will deactivate the alarm. I don't know if that helps with this model though. Ignition key should be "ON" when you use the "kill" switch to de-activate .
Each remote takes ( 2 ) coin style 3 volt lithium batteries ( # 2016 )
Unlock with the remote or with the key in the door cylinder.

You do not have to reset the keyless remote after battery replacement.
