I need to know which remote keyless fob is compatible with a 98.5 SVT.

I found umpteens of Ford remotes for Taurus, Ranger, F150, etc but none for Contour Mystique.

Surely one of these is the same.

Thanks for any info!


Ironically, I just received today the one I got from someone on eBay. What matters is the FCC code on the back of the fob. If you have one and are looking for another, you must get one with the same FCC code. If you don't have one, you'll need to find the code, maybe on the receiver which I think is behind the glove box under the dash. Do a search using the words "key fob" in the maintenance forum or the general forum, I forget which I searched in, for more information. It's easy to program once you find one. BTW, the one I got was new in factory sealed Ford packaging and only cost me $9.99 + $5.00 shipping. Good luck!

Oh, and welcome to CEG...it's a great site.
