Ford Keyless entry remotes
A keyless entry system is an electronic lock that controls access to a vehicle without using a traditional mechanical key. The term keyless entry system originally meant a lock controlled by a keypad located at or near the driver's door, which required entering a predetermined (or self-programmed) numeric code. Such systems now have a hidden touch-activated keypad and are still available on certain Ford and Lincoln models. The term remote keyless system (RKS), also called keyless entry or remote central locking, refers to a lock that uses an electronic remote control as a key which is activated by a handheld device or automatically by proximity.
"Smart PEPS" refers to a Passive Entry Passive Start (PEPS) system for vehicles, which is a keyless technology that allows drivers to unlock the doors by touching the door handle or pressing a button, and start the engine by pressing a start/stop button without using a physical key. The system can detect the key's presence within a specific range of the vehicle, it use radio-frequency (RF) signals to authenticate the driver's key fob and typically include enhanced security features like encryption to prevent theft.
