| I just purchased a 2002 Mercury Grand Marquis. Seller did not have keyless entry pad code. Somebody told me to look for the code on the trunk hinge. Not there--previous owner must have removed it. Somebody else told me that to program a new code I must know the last one. Local Mercury dealer told me, for $25, they could put my car on a computer to find code. Is this the only solution? | |

Replying to: marsha7 (Nov 25, 2005 3:26 pm) I agree that $25 seems VERY reasonable to find out what that number is.

Replying to: johnclineii (Nov 25, 2005 4:31 pm) Thanks for that reminder...my original thinking on that procedure was wrong, but I stand by my statement that it is worth $25 to get it...

I have a 2000 MGM that has become my pride and joy since buying it just under a year ago. I've been lurking here since just before I purchased it (this forum strongly influenced my decision) for tips and tricks. Now I have one that I can't seem to find an instance of it having been answered before. I came home with a nasty sinus infection the other day and forgot to lock my doors before I went in the house (15 years in the security industry preaching this stuff to clients...). Some time over night the local hoodlums raided my car for goodies.  They got some unimportant stuff like my cellular headset and a couple of items I'd picked up at a garage sale, but they also took my user manual from the glove compartment. While I do miss having that cool Mercury emblazoned booklet in there, I'm more concerned that the factory unlock code card was in there. Having watched the neighbourhood kids for years I don't think that they're smart enough to come back again (and again) but I'd prefer not to take that chance. Has anyone ever had to change the security module in their car? I realize that the factory code isn't changeable but I presume that installing the module from another car may address my problem. Is this possible? Is is expensive? Am I grasping at straws?
