2004 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR key battery

Resetting the power liftgate:
The power liftgate may not operate under these conditions. If any of
these conditions occur, the power liftgate must be reset.
• a low voltage or dead battery
• disconnected battery
• the liftgate has been left open, or in the partially latched position, for
more than six (6) hours.
To reset the power liftgate:
1. Manually close and fully latch the liftgate.
2. Power open the liftgate by using the keyfob or overhead console
button.
3. Once the liftgate is fully open, close the liftgate using the keyfob or
overhead console button.
Note: If the power liftgate system is turned in the message
center, the system can not be activated with any switches or with the
liftgate handle. The system will need to be turned for any power
operation to occur.
Liftgate ajar signal
If the liftgate or liftgate glass are not fully latched, you will receive a
“ LIFTGATE AJAR ” message on the instrument panel. If you see this
message, check both the liftgate glass and liftgate door to insure they are
fully latched.
Make sure the liftgate is closed to prevent exhaust fumes from
being drawn into the vehicle. If you must drive with the liftgate
open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the vehicle.

Replacing the battery
The remote entry transmitter uses one coin type three-volt lithium
battery CR2032 or equivalent. The typical operating range for your
remote entry transmitter is approximately 10 meters (33 feet). A
decrease in the operating range could be caused by:
• weather conditions,
• nearby radio towers,
• structures around the vehicle and
• other vehicles parked next to the vehicle.
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the two
halves of the remote entry
transmitter near the key ring. DO
NOT TAKE THE RUBBER COVER
AND CIRCUIT BOARD OFF THE
FRONT HOUSING OF THE
REMOTE ENTRY TRANSMITTER.
2. Do not wipe off any grease on the
battery terminals on the back
surface of the circuit board.
3. Remove the old battery.
4. Insert the new battery. Refer to the diagram inside the remote entry
transmitter for the correct orientation of the battery. Press the battery
down to ensure that the battery is fully seated in the battery housing
cavity.
5. Snap the two halves back together.
Note: Replacement of the battery will not cause the remote transmitter
to become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter
should operate normally after battery replacement.

Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to have all (maximum of four — original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure.
To program the transmitters yourself:
• Unlock all doors using the power
door lock/unlock control. Insert a
key in the ignition and turn from
1 (LOCK) to 3 (ON) and cycle
between 1 (LOCK) and 3 (ON)
eight times in rapid succession
(within 10 seconds) with the
eighth turn ending in the 3 (ON)
position. The locks will cycle
between unlocked and locked to
confirm that the programming mode has been entered.
• Within 20 seconds, program a remote transmitter by pressing any
button on a transmitter. Note: If more than 20 seconds pass before
pressing a remote transmitter button, the programming mode will exit
and the procedure will have to be repeated.
• Repeat the previous step to program additional remote transmitters.
• When you have completed programming the remote transmitters, turn
the ignition to 1 (LOCK) or wait 20 seconds.
Illuminated entry
The lamps illuminate when the remote entry system is used to unlock
the door(s).
The system automatically turns off after 25 seconds or when the ignition
is turned to the ON or ACC position. The dome lamp control must not
be set to the OFF position for the illuminated entry system to operate.
The inside lights will not turn off if:
• they have been turned on with the dimmer control, or
• any door is open.
The battery saver will shut off the interior lamps 30 minutes after the
ignition has been turned to the OFF position.
