Anyone know how I can get my 08 Mustang to go to "program mode" so I can use my TPMS Programming tool? I searched and tried the suggestion of turn key to run position 3 times, etc. It did not work. Help Please!

off the top of my head, it goes something like this.

turn key to run w/o starting engine
turn key to run w/o starting engine
turn key to run w/o starting engine

tap brake pedal

turn key to run w/o starting engine
turn key to run w/o starting engine
turn key to run w/o starting engine - leave in RUN position for the training

It has been a few months since I last used mine but I think that is the sequence you need

I bought the ford tool to program it at home and found some directions on a mustangforums post....can't remember which one though. If you still haven't found out by the time I get home from work, I'll try to remember to look it up for you.

also make sure you have the doors closed. I don't think you can get into program mode with a door open.

ARTTII is correct here is a pdf you can print and keep with your tool. Just click on the link to view it and print file was to large to attach.
