  • It tells you how in our Focus manual for the car. Some special sequence of putting key in ignition and pressing buttons. If you don't have the manual I can check our Focus procedure tonight, should be the same?

    edit - in fact loads of info from a google search like http://www.mirez.co.uk/KeyProg.htm

    Could be - key in ignition, turn on ignition and press lock on remote with ignition on. Finally press unlock if doors locked initially. Switch off and remove.
    However, someone with more Ford knowledge could come along and advise differently or confirm.

    Key in ignition, turn on and off 4 times. Hear a beep. Then it should work
  • try asking the local garage over the phone first to see if you need to part with money or if they can explain it over the phone
