Makes it hard unless you know the brand or can post a pic of the keyring switch.

Have you tried resetting your immobiliser codes? Ford has a programmable central locking assuming that the remotes work properly try this.
Central Locking
1. With all accesories switched off turn ignition key to accesory then press boot release button (mounted in dash)3 times quickly.
2. Operate one of the buttons on keypad, each time a code is entered successfully the door locks will operate 2 times to confirm a new entere code.
3. Turn key to off to exit learning mode.
This will do your central locking assuming of course that the key pads do work on your remote control if the door locks don't work try getting a ford keypad from EB-EL Falcon from wreckers and follow the above to get the new keypad to work.
Immobiliser
1. Turn off all accessories and turn key to On position Leave key in ignition for 30 minutes so that SL can try to relearn codes for system-if successful door locks will lock and unlock twice

Hope this helps
