•When the ignition is in the 3 (ON) position, the indicator will glow for
3 seconds to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock
system, the indicator will flash
rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the 3 (ON) position. If
this occurs, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer for
service.

dealership. Your dealership can program your key or you can“do it
yourself.”Refer to theProgramming spare keyssection in this chapter.
The following items may prevent the vehicle from starting:
•Large metallic objects
•Electronic devices on the key chain that can be used to purchase
gasoline or similar items
•A second key on the same key ring as thecoded key
If any of these items are present, you need to keep these objects from
touching thecoded keywhile starting the engine. These objects and
devices cannot damage thecoded key,but can cause a momentary“no
start”condition if they are too close to the key during engine start. If a
problem occurs, turn ignition to the OFF position and restart the engine
with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key.
Check to make sure thecoded keyis an approved Lincolncoded key.

•Have your vehicle towed to a dealership or a locksmith. The key codes
will need to be erased from your vehicle and new key codes will need
