Mondeo ghia x facelif - GEM replacement- key reprogramming - rareti

Replaced GEM due to fault with wipers. All working ok now, except keyfob will not operate.Will not lock/unlock , but car starts ok. Do I have to reprograme the keyfob? If so, I only have 1 key (remote keyfob) Can I reprogramme with only 1 key? Or could replacement GEM (fom Scrapyard ) be faulty. GEM came out of a Ghia x

Thanks in advance

If you have replaced the gem module,then the original keyfob code will have been lost.To re-sync the key to the new gem unit,turn ignition on and off 4 times within 6 secs.A tone will be heard,then press any button on the remote key.Another tone will confirm re-sync.The gem unit has nothing to do with the starting of the engine.hth

Thanks for reply. When I turn ign on and off 4 times, do I press any button on the fob with the key still in the ign, or do I remove it from the igition first ? Should I hav doors locked or unlocked when I do this procedure- or does it matter. Thanks in advance
