Program a keyless remote on a 2001 Mercury Cougar?

Answer 1

Have fob and key in hand.

Get in car. Ignition has four settings, going clockwise while looking at the front of the ignition, off, radio on, run, and start.

Turn the key from off to run four times, each cycle must be less than 6 seconds. At the end of the fourth cycle, once the red light flashes on the dask, press a button on each fob that you want to program.

That's it.
