How to reprogram a keyless remote avital 300l

Hello Cathy

It does indeed have keyless entry. It needs reprogramming when you get a new remote. Also if you disconnect the battery. Usually a local car alarm fitting shop, or an auto-electrician will do it. Plus of course a Ford dealership.

I had the same problem. Went to dealer who said it probably needed to be reprogrammed (around $45-50). Paid for premium assistance with FixYA. Ginko gave me the procedure to reprogram my remotes. It was very easy and worked great. Now both of my remotes are working and it only cost me $9.99.
