2007 Ford Crown Victoria LX, 4.6 WSECTION Miscellaneous
- Most new FMC RKE systems allow Lock and Unlock functions to operate with the ignition in RUN/START. However, the locking confirmations (exterior light flashes or horn chirps) are not allowed with the ignition on. This is normal design intent.
- If you experience difficulty performing diagnostics on a receiver control module, electronically unlock the vehicle first then continue.
- If customers complain of inadvertent activations, determine if the following is the cause:
- Ask customer if they programmed their transmitters to other family vehicles. If so, inform them if a transmitter is activated within 164-230 ft. (50-70m) of both vehicles, it may perform the function on both vehicles. (Also, note that a trunk release button on one vehicle may be a liftgate glass release function on another vehicle.)
- For Liftgate Glass release activations, check OASIS to determine if there are any SSM or TSB affecting the vehicle line you are working on. Example: 02/3MY Explorer/Mountaineers.
- Transmitters being inadvertently activated in purse or pocket.
