2015 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR ECU

Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency signal to communicate with your
vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock when one of the following
conditions is met:
•You touch any button on the keypad.
• You press a button on the transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency interference is present in the area or if the
transmitter battery is low, it may be necessary to mechanically unlock
your door. You can use the mechanical key blade in your intelligent
access key to open the driver door in this situation. Refer to Remote
Control in this chapter for more information on the location and use of
the mechanical key blade.
REMOTE CONTROL
Intelligent Access Key
Your intelligent access keys operate
the power locks and the remote
start system. The key must be in
your vehicle to activate the
push-button start system.
The intelligent access key also
contains a removable mechanical key
blade that you can use to unlock the
driver door. Slide the release on the
back of the transmitter to release the
key blade, and then pull the blade
out. Note: Your vehicle’s back-up keys
came with a security tag that
provides important key cut
information. Keep the tag in a safe
place for future reference.

Activating Intelligent Access (If Equipped)
You must have the intelligent access key within 3 feet (1 meter) of the
driver’s door.
At the Front Driver Door
Press any number on the SecuriCode keyless entry keypad.After locking the doors with the lock
sensor, there is a brief delay before
you can unlock your vehicle. This
delay lets you pull the door handle
to make sure that it locked.
Note: Keep the keypad surface clean to avoid issues with operation.
Smart Unlocks for Intelligent Access Keys
This feature helps to prevent you from unintentionally locking your
intelligent access key inside your vehicle’s passenger compartment or
rear cargo area.
When you lock your vehicle using the driver or passenger power door lock
control (with the door open, transmission in Pand ignition off), after you
close the door your vehicle will search for an intelligent access key in the
passenger compartment. If your vehicle finds a key, all of the doors will
immediately unlock and the horn will sound, indicating that a key is inside.
You can override the smart unlock feature and intentionally lock the
intelligent access key inside your vehicle. To do this, lock your vehicle
after you have closed all the doors by:
• using the keyless entry keypad
• pressing the lock button on another intelligent access key
• touching the locking area on the handle with another intelligent access
key in your hand.
When you open one of the front doors and lock your vehicle using the
power door lock control, all doors will lock then unlock if:
• the ignition is on, or
• the ignition is off and the transmission is not in P.
Autolock Feature (If Enabled)
The autolock feature will lock all the doors when:
• all the doors are closed,
• the ignition is on,

Note:Do not drive with the liftgate open without first disabling the
power function and securing the liftgate to the vehicle.
Note: In case of operation in extreme cold -40°F (-40°C), or on extreme
inclines, manual operation of the liftgate is suggested.
You can enable or disable the power liftgate using the information
display. The remote control and instrument panel button still operates
the liftgate regardless of the setting.
Opening and Closing the Power Liftgate
Note: You can reverse the liftgate movement direction with a second
press of the instrument panel button or the button on the liftgate, or a
second double press of the transmitter button.
The liftgate only operates with the vehicle in P.
Three tones sound as the liftgate begins to power close. A single tone
indicates a problem with the close request, caused by any of the
following:
• The ignition is on and the transmission is not in P.
• The battery voltage is below the minimum operating voltage
• The vehicle speed is at or above 3 mph (5 km/h)
If the liftgate reverses and starts to close after an open request, a fast
continuous tone indicates excessive load on the gate or a possible strut
failure. Have the system checked by an authorized dealer if you still have
a fast tone after removing the load. To open or close from the instrument panel: Press the
instrument panel liftgate button.
To open or close with the remote control: Press the remote
control liftgate-decklid button twice within three seconds.

Obstacle Detection
When closing:The liftgate reverses to full open when it detects an
obstacle. A chime sounds three times as the liftgate begins to reopen.
Remove the obstacle to close the liftgate.
Note: Entering your vehicle while the liftgate is closing can cause your
vehicle to bounce and activate obstacle detection. To prevent this, let the
power liftgate close completely before you enter your vehicle. Before
driving off, check the instrument cluster for a liftgate or door ajar
message or warning indicator. Failure to do this could result in
unintentionally leaving the liftgate open while driving.
When opening: The system stops when it detects an obstacle and a
tone sounds three times. Remove the obstacle to operate the liftgate.
Resetting the Power Liftgate
The liftgate may not operate properly and you may need to reset it if any
of the following conditions occur:
• A low voltage or dead battery.

To reset the power liftgate:
1.
Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds, and then reconnect the battery.
2. Manually close and fully latch the liftgate.
3. Power open the liftgate by using the remote control or the instrument panel button.
