Lincoln Nautilus: Keys and Remote Controls / Replacing a Lost Key or Remote Control. Programming the Remote Control
Replacing a Lost Key or Remote Control
You can purchase replacement keys or
remote controls from an authorized dealer.
Authorized dealers can program remote
controls for your vehicle.
Programming the Remote Control
Note: You can program a maximum of four
remote controls to your vehicle.
Note: If your programmed remote controls
are lost or stolen and you do not have an
extra coded remote, you need to have your
vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. Store
an extra programmed remote away from
your vehicle in a safe place to help prevent
any inconvenience. Contact an authorized
dealer to purchase additional spare or
replacement remotes.
You must have two previously programmed
remote controls inside your vehicle and the
new unprogrammed remote controls readily
accessible. Contact an authorized dealer to
have the spare remote control programmed
if two previously programmed remotes are
not available. Make sure that your vehicle
is off before beginning this procedure. Make
sure that you close all the doors before
beginning and that they remain closed
throughout the procedure. Perform all steps
within 30 seconds of starting the sequence.
Stop and wait for at least one minute before
starting again if you perform any steps out
of sequence.
