Hi Guys,
I'm having trouble reprogramming my central locking remote/s to my EF falcon. I've followed all the guides to the T but with no success :( Just can't seem to get the thing into "learn mode".

Can anyone help??

Thanks,
Ben

To add to that... make sure EVERYTHING is switched off first. I.E. stereo, lights, fan etc or it wont work.

All good guys. Turns out I was turning the demister ON and OFF 3 times rather than just pressing it 3 times.
Can't believe I didn't pick that up :@

Thanks for help anyway :)

I did the same thing the first time I reprogrammed a remote as well, so don't feel too silly.
Good to know I'm not the only one! :)

I'm having this same problem but I am %110 sure I have pressed it ON OFF ON on ACC mode, on IGN mode with ALL accessories off but mine refuses to cycle the locks :/ having said that though my current remote works some of the time despite repacing the batteries and the red light on the remote still works fine it seems to be something wrong with the BEM.

Does Anyone have any idea what I could do?

Try it on ACC instead of IGN... might, and I do mean might, work.

try disconnecting the battery for 20 mins then reconnect and start the car this should assist you resetting the central locking
