Keyless Entry Keypad

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Monterey and 2004 Ford Freestar. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The keyless entry keypad, located on the exterior of the driver door, provides a method for the customer to access their vehicle without a key or remote transmitter. The keyless entry keypad feature:

The keyless entry keypad feature operates independently of key position status, vehicle speed, or transmission position. When a keyless entry keypad button is pressed, the keyless entry keypad buttons illuminate to provide better visibility. If LOCK ALL DOORS is entered, or 5 seconds have elapsed since the last button press, the illumination is turned off.

Each vehicle equipped with a keyless entry keypad is programmed with a 5-digit factory keyless entry keypad code. This code is provided to the customer through a wallet card in the owner literature package. In addition, this code is available through a diagnostic tool and is also printed on the SJB label. A personal keyless entry keypad code can be programmed into the SJB. When entering codes, each digit must be entered within 5 seconds of the prior digit.
