Hi. I just bought a 2001 Mountaineer. Of Course I just got one key and one remote. I did buy an additional remote and key blanks on ebay. I programmed the remote with no problems. I had my second key cut and programmed by a locksmith with no problems. My problem is I had Wal-Mart cut a third key and thought that I would be able to program it myself, but no luck. The manual says 1 second to program, but at the locksmith it took ~500 seconds (9 minutes) with his programming machine. Do you have to wait until the theft light quits flashing, or should it do it in 1 second? Is there some trick I'm missing that is not in the manual?
Thanks in advance for the help.
