Replacement Key Fob

Well I know there has been information about which one is required for our cars but for some reason it wont come up with a search. Does anyone know off hand which one is needed or where to get one? Thanks

I think there is a code inside that you have to match.

I think it's the FCCID code.

Go to E-bay and plug in cwtwb1u313 check the include description box for more choices. Note some for Escapes and Excursions that only have 3 buttons will show up. They will still work but you won't have the trunk/hatch button.

The fobs for most other Ford carlines or later Panthers will not work on a Marauder... Example the ones for my '07 Grand Marquis or '98 Taurus will not work, but they exchange for each other... The ones for my '98 Grand Marquis and Marauder are same, right down to every digit on the back cover...

My previous post on fobs...

I did a little digging and as I suspected, probably half of the ebay sellers don't have a clue what the proper part number or FCC ID is for a Crown Vic/Grand Marquis/Marauder remote(same ones are used for all three in '03 & '04)... Also searched a few past posts and yup there are cases of board members getting the wrong ones, so in this light I decided to post the correct numbers, not everyone has a remote to refer to...


(information on back of remote)

FCC ID : CWTWB1U313

CANADA : 1788 102 352

2003 # F8AB-15K601-BA




FCC ID : CWTWB1U343

CANADA : 1788A-FWB1U343

2004 # 3W73-15K601-AA


Either remote will work for '03 or '04, likely the '04 part number replaces the earlier remote but the '03 version seems to be far more common on ebay(those have been around since 1998)...

Remember if you buy any other remote, it isn't going to work... It's common on ebay for one with FCC ID ending in 331 being listed as a replacement, don't believe it(I've tried those, it ain't happnin')...
