Those are definitely  transponder keys so you're on the right path.  I don't have a tech sheet on the 1100F, but are you positive it says that it'll work on '98 Contours? I've looked on Bypasskit.com and they have their data interfaces listed for '99-'00, but all they have listed for '98 are RF interfaces(key-in-box type as well as the 555F).

Where do the 2 wires from the transponder ring go to? I'm thinking there may be a decoder module somewhere nearby that would possibly have TX and RX wires for a bypass, but no promises.

Actually i can't find any bypasses saying it's for a 97 contour. Just 98+. I chose the 1100f cause it only required one key for programming, which is all that's available.

What I was asking, though, is if you have confirmed that the 1100F lists the '98 Contour as a vehicle that it will work on.  BypassKit does not list any data bypasses like the 1100F for the '98s, just '99 and up - that was making me think that there might have been an issue with that model year(and obviously the '97s as well) where it wouldn't learn a data bypass.

It's not listed. in the 1100f. I can't find it listed for any bypasses.

Check out IDataLink's ADS-TBSL FM.

Manual lists the '98 Contour as a compatible vehicle - also you should only need 1 key to program.

EDIT: now that I reread the earlier posts I realized you still hadn't found the actual TX/RX wires - I got this confused with another post where someone had a key-in-box bypass and wanted to run the antenna wires into the TX and RX on a Ford.
 
Have you followed the 2 wires from the antenna ring to see if they went to a decoder module or something right nearby?
