  Q: How to activate remote memory for the keyless entry transmitter on Ford Explorer Sport Trac?

  A:

  The first step to activate remote memory for the keyless entry transmitter begins by positioning the driver seat along with adjustable pedals to your desired location. The set button exists at the lower center of the instrument panel. Use the lower center button of the instrument panel to select between driver 1 or driver 2 while pressing a remote keyless entry transmitter control within 5 seconds and finally confirming the selection. This allows the remote settings to be saved for the preferred driver. Use this method again to set a second memory option with the second RKE transmitter.

  Q: How to remove and replace the keyless entry transmitter for the tailgate latch remote control on Ford Explorer Sport Trac?

  A:

  The procedure to change the keyless entry transmitter starts by opening and supporting the tailgate. Start by removing 7 bolts combined with 4 pin-type retainers and finally take out the tailgate access panel. When installation time arrives lock the bolts at 5 Nm (44 lb-in). Open the clips which allows two tailgate latch actuating rods to escape their position on the remote control followed by releasing their corresponding locators from the tailgate surface. When you install the tailgate remote control, fasten the 2 nuts with torque up to 9 Nm (80 lb-in). The final step involves performing the opposite actions which were used during removal.
