Nomad72 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 HI all I have a 2010 2.0l Galaxy. When I bought the car it came with 3 keys. All work fine in ignition and door, but ONLY ONE would lock and unlock car by using the fob buttons. Unfortunately, this key has now reached the end of the road through ware and tear. So I have two keys that start the car but can't lock and unlock!?! I am guessing that because the keys work in the ignition they have been coded correctly? I have tried turning them in the ignition 5 and 6 times to see if that works......it doesn't. I am wondering if I am missing something simple or if the keys just need to be replaced? Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not have a keyhole in the drivers door in which the metal blade can fit in, so you have the ability to lock/unlock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'Transponder' chip which is what the car reads to allow the car to be started is totally separate to the programming needed for the remote lock/unlock to work. I guess that your other two keys (assuming they are the type with buttons) have not be programmed in to the car. See page 33 of the Owners Handbook for instructions on programming the remote function. https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/catalog/owner_guides/ENUSA_CG3533_GLX_og_200908.pdf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to resolve using this. The YouTube videos were a bit off the mark.....the owners manual was better. I should really seek one out 🙂 Thanks again.
