Program keyless entry remote
You said you have replaced the keyless entry remote and now you want to program it, right? The keyless entry module in the car is located inside the trunk, behind the driver taillight, recessed in the quarter panel. You will have to remove the felt panels inside the trunk to gain access to it. It will be a little black box, probably about 5" squared attached to a black rack thing that holds it in place. There will be several wiring harnesses running into it, but the one to take notice of is a wiring harness with only two (2) wires. It should be on the outside of the mounting piece. Turn the car to key on, engine off (KOEO) then using a screwdriver or a jumper wire, connect the two wires in the connector, temporarily. When you do so, the locks in the car will cycle to signal that it is in programming mode. Now, press any button on the remote (like lock or unlock) and I believe the locks will cycle again, do this for every remote you want programmed for the car (max. of 4 remotes) when you are finished, turn the key off and the locks should cycle one last time to signal the end of programming mode. Now try the remote and see if it locks and unlocks the car. I'm doing this entirely from memory, the last time I did this was over two years ago, but if you have problems, feel free to email me and I'll try to help you out the best I can. ([email protected])

I had the same problem with my 99 cobra. The dealership claimed they didn't get it from the previous owner who "traded in" the car. Anyways my buddy has a Mach 1 and had an extra remote so he let me have it. What I did to program the remote to my car was I pressed both the Lock and Unlock buttons at the same time (held them) and turned the ignition (without turning on the car) about 8 times. At that point the car should lock and unlock. The only downside is that it will still lock and unlock my buddy's car, but you shouldn't have that problem. Let me know if it works for you!
