How was it programmed ? Was a scan tool used ?
Program All Key Fobs
To complete this programming operation, all keyless entry transmitters associated with the vehicle must be available for programming. Once placed into program mode, all previously programmed transmitters will be erased from memory upon the receipt of the programming signal from the first transmitter.

  1. Close the lift gate.
  2. Ignition ON, access the scan tool Lift gate Module Setup menu and select Program All Key Fobs.
  3. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions in order to program the transmitters. Select "Start" on the scan tool to enter the program mode.
  4. As each transmitter is successfully programmed, the scan tool will show how many transmitters have been placed into memory.
  5. When all transmitters are programmed, exit the program mode by selecting "Stop" on the scan tool. The vehicle will not respond to the transmitters until the program mode is exited.
  6. Operate the transmitter functions in order to verify correct system operation.
Program Individual Key Fob
If there are less than four keyless entry transmitters programmed to the vehicle, an individual fob transmitter can be added. This method will not erase previously programmed transmitters from memory.
  1. Close the lift gate.
  2. Ignition ON, access the scan tool Lift gate Module Setup menu and select Program Individual Key Fob.
  3. Select "Program additional Key Fob" on the scan tool.
  4. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions in order to program the transmitter.
  5. Operate the transmitter functions in order to verify correct system operation.

Visit a locksmith shop that does automotive.

first, they will check the BATTERY in remote
next, the output of the buttons will be chacked.
Finally, programming will be done, correctly.

If remote does not take, they will sell you a good one.

Key fobs tend to hold their code indefintely. The batteries in them are probably burnt. Open up one of the fobs and replace the battery (hearing aid type) then they should work fine. Good Luck!~

SOURCE: Key fob won't work on my 2003 jaguar s type car

Try this .. it MIGHT work.
Clean carefully the battery contacts and check there is no large build up of dirt around and on the small printed circuit. Insert new battery and then try a manual reprogram by following these instructions which work for the older style seperate key fobs - never tried it with new switchblade type keys, which I am assuming this is?
Turn on/off ignition 8 x times allowing all functions to settle each time. on the 9th on press a buttom on each remote and then switch off ign. Use the good key to lock the car then try the new key to unlock. sometimes it works first time - sometimes it takes a couple of tries - hope it works for you.

I have a 2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT, the key fob doesn't work. I got battery checked, they're fine. Any ideas how to make the key fob work? It has an unlock and a lock button.

Place key in ignition, turn but do not crank up the motor and press the lock/unlock buttons to program it for your vehicle. You should see the lights flash on/off confirming a successful link.

Got a 2003 mercury grand marquis which i bought and didnt come with a remote for the door locks. i have an extra remote from my 2003 ford expedition and need to know how to program it, any suggestions?

usually the truck and car fobs work on different signals. you can get inexpensive fobs on ebay, the car fob will have four buttons with a trunk release button.
once you have the correct fob, its pretty easy.
  • Just remember that you must also re-program your currently working remotes at this time also as if they are new since prior remotes are erased.
  • Max of 4 transmitters can be programmed.
Procedure:
  • Keep the driver's door open.
  • Electronically unlock the doors (Switch on door or working transmitter)
  • 2000-2006: Turn the ignition from OFF to RUN/ON 8 times within 10 seconds, with the eighth turn ending in RUN. If the module has successfully entered program mode, it will lock and then unlock all doors.
  • Within 20 seconds, press any button on an transmitter, and the doors will lock and then unlock to confirm that each transmitter has been programmed. Repeat this step for each transmitter.
  • NOTE: If the door locks do not respond for any transmitter, wait several seconds and press the button again.
  • To exit the programming mode:
    • Turn ignition to the OFF position.
    • Let the 20 seconds expire.
    • The maximum number of transmitters have been programmed.
