Hello everyone. This is my first post. Just purchased a 1996 scorpio exec 24v. It came with the the red master key only. I have had another key cut and was going to programme it this afternoon. i have read how to do it in the handbook but the control light on the top of the dash does not illuminate. Any ideas on how i can either replace the light or programme the key another way. Many thanks Andy

Hi Andy ...it's unusual for the PATS light not to illuminate ..but it's common that it drops down inside the dash .. it's worth checking under the red cowl to make sure it is in fact there ... welcome to the site too ... regards .....STN ps. if it has dropped down then seek a little more advice before digging in there ok .. let us know

Just been and programmed the key. Thanks for all your time and help STN. Changing the bulb on the clock looks complicated though.
