I am missing a key fob for my 99 Escort. If I purchase a new one, do I have to take it to the dealer to get it programed, or is this something I can do myself. Instructions?

No. I actually need to purchase one first. Was going to check out Ebay.

I was looking through the user manual that comes with the car. I came across a page that described how to program the remote. I could not believe it. Normally those manuals do not have very much usefull information. Anyway, it says to cycle the key on and off 7 time, not 5. Just thoght I would mention this in case someone was trying to program with 5 cycles.
