The dealer had to program my Granada scorpio remote, 1994. I dont think there is a way to do it yourself.

Have you done a Google search on 'Ford Explorer Fob' ?
Loads of stuff to look at, youtube videos, etc...

Usually the FDS needs to connect to the vehicle, you can’t just get information from it.
I just had a look, if I look at the PATS menu it needs to connect to the vehicle.
I think it probably needs to be the GEM module but if I look there the same happens except:
Before '99 needs to connect to vehicle.
After '99 needs to connect to vehicle & needs to be used in conjunction with the workshop manual.

Looking on the internet some American sites give a procedure involving shorting 2 pins in a connector behind a panel in the boot but whether any UK ones use it I’ve no idea.
