Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Lock/Unlock Control - Unlock

2005 Ford Taurus SEL, 4D SedanSECTION Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Lock/Unlock Control - Unlock
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Milan, 2010 Lincoln MKZ, and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The RKE feature provides lock/unlock functions independently of key position, vehicle speed, or transmission position. The RKE feature provides a stepped (if enabled) process for unlocking the doors. Upon receipt of the first request for unlocking the doors, the RKE control feature requests the SJB to unlock the driver door only. If another unlock request is received within 3 seconds of the first, the RKE feature requests the SJB to unlock all the doors. This feature can be configured to one-step unlock, so that all the doors unlock on the first press of the unlock button. Refer to STEPPED UNLOCK PROGRAMMINGΒ  for programming information.
