Is this a FOMOCO made remote or is it an after-market part. I have had issues with the after-market FOBs.

I suspect it is aftermarket as their was no Ford packaging nor logos on the unit! Mine has been working for 4 months.

The one I purchased appears identical to the originals that came with the truck. However, this one does not have the FOMOCO embossed on the back. Unfortunately I have not configured it yet so I can't tell you how it works.

I'm pretty sure this is an aftermarket remote. I think the problem with aftermarket remotes comes in when people don't program them with the other remotes at the same time. When you do the programing it's easiest to just do the remotes all at once. I have been using this one for about 5 months now with no issues.

It is the same brand that the old one is that came with the truck. Mine works well just dont have the long range but works fine.

I opened it up, but can't find any name or mark of the manufacturer. But it works great with my 99 F-150. Good luck!

It looks and feels just like the FACTORY-OEM that came with my car. However, the ID number on the back did not match my original remote. If I had to guess, what I received was a Ford product, but a different model that had a much shorter range. It does work... just don't try to lock your car from inside the house (which my original did just fine.)

Contact S&I Remotes directly. They are very helpful and will be able to tell you the exact FOB you need.

I am not exactly sure how to tell. But I have had it for quite some time now and no problems from it. Worth the $$.. and I had mine activated at the Chevy DEALERSHIP with out a problem... They charged more than I paid for the fob!

Couldnt program. Dealer did it for me, but all for not, fob back to same thing, did not last. Yhe reason is because the chrome metal disc that are glued to the fob pad comes off and moves around. Its back to unlocking my car, trunk and starting it up on its own.

You will need to verify that you purchased the correct remote, and confirm that your vehicle is entering programming mode. If you purchased from us, please send an Amazon message with your order information. Thank you!

The grey remote that has 'GTO' on it is the one we've ever bought and used. It is the same type that came with our gate equipment when originally installed.

To be honest, I've never had another brand. Besides you have to use the same one in order for it to work. So I just ordered the same OEM remote. The good news is that it's still working fine.

I took mine to a Pontiac dealer and they were not able to program the remote. I believe I have a problem with a module.

Sounds like dealer question. I replaced mine with an inexpensive used fob from Amazon. The steps to activate it are ridiculously elaborate, found them on line. Got it to work fine, but my truck came with a fob to begin with.

When I ordered mine I received an OEM remote and works perfectly fine, you might one to ask for a replacement.

happy St.Pats okay 1st thing does yours look the same,2nd is to ask a dealer what years the remote works for(chances are it does but remember you have to program it everytime you change the battery & of course the first time to get it to function,so don't throw the instructions away,store as a pdf,3rd buy the cheapest possible there all the same just in case it doesn't work you can email me & I will buy it from you amazon please include my email address (oilcan241@aol.com) so now your O.K.steve

Yes, this would be the correct key fob. I've seen them priced from $39.95 to $75.00. All electronics are in there but you do have to pay the dealer/ locksmith a fee to program the remote so it "recognizes" you car. That you will need to shop around to see who the most reasonable. Hope that helps! Dave B Chicago,IL.

I don't still have original instructios that came with the FOB...agree with Loves Chows below. Vender can provide programming instructions the specific vehicle.

It is a GM universal remote. You will have to "program" the new one with one of your existing remotes. Instructions are usually included. Pretty simple.

Hi, You will need to get a part number for the remote and match it up since you do not have an original!
