<h1>1997 Lincoln Mark VIII Keyless Entry Remote Fob</h1> <p><font size="3"><b>Important:</b> This vehicle supports onboard programming for remote fobs using the factory keyless entry keypad on the driver’s door. You can program multiple remotes during a single session, but all remotes must be programmed at the same time, including any that are already working. Remotes not programmed during the session will be erased. </font></p> <p><font size="3"><b>Step-by-Step Programming Instructions:</b></font></p> <ul> <li><font size="3"> Step 1: Ensure all doors are closed, and have all remote fobs ready. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 2: Enter the vehicle’s 5-digit permanent entry code on the keyless entry keypad located on the driver’s door. This is the original factory-set code found in your owner’s manual or on a label in the vehicle. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 3: Within 5 seconds of pressing the final digit of the entry code, press the 1/2 button on the keypad. All doors will lock and then unlock, indicating that the vehicle has entered programming mode. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 4: Within 5 seconds, press any button on the first remote fob you wish to program. The door locks will cycle to confirm successful programming.</font></li> <li><font size="3"> Step 5: If you are programming a second remote, press any button on that remote within 5 seconds of the previous remote. The locks will cycle again to confirm programming. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 6: Repeat this process for any additional remotes. If the keypad backlight goes out before you finish programming all remotes, the system will exit programming mode. You’ll need to repeat the process from Step 1. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 7: To exit programming mode, press the 7/8 and 9/0 buttons on the keypad simultaneously. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 8: Test each remote fob to ensure all functions—such as locking, unlocking, and panic (if available)—work correctly.</font></li> </ul>
