2007 Ford Five Hundred
Remote / key fob programming
Programming a remote on this Ford resets every remote for the vehicle, so you reprogram them all together. There are two common methods — try Method A first, and if it doesn't work use Method B. Do not press the brake pedal at any point.

Key programming
You can add a new key to this Ford yourself if you already have two keys that start the engine. The new key must be cut first, and it has to be a genuine key — a cloned hardware-store key won't work.

Ford Five Hundred key fob battery
Your Ford Five Hundred key fob uses a CR2032 3V lithium coin cell. A fresh one typically lasts 3–5 years.
Buy Energizer CR2032 Lithium Coin Batteries (4-pack) on AmazonHow to replace the battery
- 1 Look for a small notch or screw on the side of the fob where the key blade meets the buttons.
- 2 Pry the housing apart with a coin or small flathead (or remove the screw).
- 3 Pop out the old coin cell, noting its orientation.
- 4 Insert the new battery the same way up, then snap the case shut.
- 5 Test the buttons — if they work, you're done.
Battery tips
- Use a fresh, name-brand 3V lithium cell — bargain cells drain quickly.
- Try not to touch both faces of the new battery; skin oils shorten its life.
- If the buttons still don't respond after a new battery, the remote may need re-syncing or programming.
