Replacing Keyless Remote

Boxcarracer944 · Dec 21, 2008

I want to get a new Keyless Remote for the cobra, I seen them on ebay.
Has anyone replaced theirs?
How hard is it to reprogram?
Anything to know about buying a certain one?

You have this kind:

As far as i know,the 99 wont work.  http://sn95forums.com/index.php?topic=31500.msg556779#msg556779

As far as programming it,Get a lil wire and look in the trunk behind the liner o nthe driver side, you will see a grey plug unplug, use the lil wire to jump it,once you do it you will hear the car unlock or lock, push any button and its done.

What do you mean jump it? The little wire I use should have power behind it?

Javi · Dec 21, 2008

they are two terminals on the grey plug, you need a jumped wire to connect the 2 terminals. make sure the key is in on position.

How do I go to ford? I thought Ford was a company.

He means a Ford dealership. as for the pic of that remote Javi posted I think that's the wrong year, you need the older style.

yes, you are correct, i posted the wrong pic.

this is the one you need.my mistake.

Mine doesn't say driver door only.

Javi · Dec 22, 2008

It doesnt matter!

OnyxCobra · Dec 23, 2008

Mine has horses on them. regardless that's the style you need and program them with the directions above with the thingy in the trunk. Make sure you do all the fobs at once.

the 99+ is much more convenient to program, when i bought my car, from what i could tell he simply threw it into accessory mode like 10 times lol

Alright I bought a keyless remote.

Javi, their were 3 grey plugs back there.
1st one - male/female grey plug, the female end of the plug had a green wire coming from 1 prong right into the other prong of the female.
2nd one - a male grey plug with nothing plugging into it
3rd one - grey plug that goes into a box with a red dot on the top of it, this is right behind the taillight

I tried all 3 with a paperclip and not one of them made the doors unlock or lock.

I have pics on my phone if needed, I really don't know what to do here. Please help.

I have my car out of the storage, ill get a pic of the Plug.

Javi · Dec 25, 2008

Boxcarracer944 · Dec 25, 2008

Ahhhhhhhhh. Thats plug #2 that I listed. It's not even plugged in for some reason. Ill try jumping it and plugging it in I guess.

Thanks a lot man you rock javi!

the plug is not supposed to be connected to anything, is just for the Key fob programming purposes.
