<h1>2016 Lincoln Navigator Keyless Entry Remote Fob (Smart Key)</h1> <p><font size="3"><b> Important Notice:</b> The 2016 Lincoln Navigator does not support onboard programming for smart key remote fobs. Programming must be completed using specialized diagnostic equipment by a qualified technician. </font></p> <p><font size="3"><b>Programming Procedure (If You Have One Working Smart Key):</b> </font></p> <ul> <li><font size="3">Step 1: Ensure the vehicle is in Park with the ignition OFF, and have all remotes ready. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 2: Insert the working smart key into the vehicle’s backup slot (often located inside the center console or armrest compartment) or hold it near the push-button start system as specified in the owner’s manual. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 3: Follow the prompts on an approved key programming tool or diagnostic interface. When prompted, insert or position the new smart key as instructed. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 4: Once the system confirms recognition of the new key, remove it and press the Lock or Unlock button to confirm functionality. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 5: Repeat for any additional remotes. After all keys are programmed, test each to verify proper operation. </font></li> </ul> <p><font size="3"><b>Programming Procedure (If No Working Smart Keys Are Available):</b> </font></p> <ul> <li><font size="3">Step 1: Without any operational smart key, the vehicle must be programmed using OEM-level diagnostic equipment. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 2: Arrange for a qualified technician with access to Lincoln’s immobilizer and security system tools to perform key registration. </font></li> <li><font size="3">Step 3: During programming, new keys will be synced to the vehicle, and any previous keys not present may be erased from memory. </font></li> </ul> <p><font size="3"><b>Additional Considerations:</b> </font></p> <ul> <li><font size="3">Proof of Ownership Required: If all keys are lost, you must present valid vehicle ownership documents (registration, title, or lease agreement). All Keys May Be Erased: The programming process may delete previous keys. Be sure to have all intended remotes present during setup. Battery Health: Ensure the smart key’s battery is fresh to avoid pairing issues. Programming Capacity: The system can store up to eight smart keys at once.</font></li> </ul>
