What are those buttons for, on my Ford door?

I’m going to cover some of the things you can do with that keypad. In this video I show you how to do some basic task. An overview of how to use the keypad to open your doors and trunk, lock the vehicle, and program or reset your own key code If you do a google search for your specific vehicle, many of the Ford vehicles have the code hidden in the car usually behind a panel. But if you are still unsure on how to get your original code the dealership can always get it for you. #ford
If you have a newer model Ford, you can retrieve the code to display on the dashboard display:
1. You will need 2 keys for this to work
2. Insert one of the keys in the ignition
3. Turn the key to the "on" position, do not turn the engine on, wait about 4 seconds
4. Take out the first key and insert the second and repeat steps
5. Your factory code will show up on the dash screen display

Just a heads up. If ur lights, the keyless entry lights,come on and stay on. Change the battery in ur key fob. It's the alert to tell u ur battery in ur fob is low. Its in the manual as well. Hope this helps someone. Ive had 2 fords. 2002 Explorer and 2013 Escape

Thank you thank you thank. I now have a code that works. It unlocks my door, the passenger doors, and opens the trunk. I found the five digit code by the fuse box in a white sticker as well. Awesome...

Hey, thanks! Believe it or not - the manual, and none of the other 'how to' videos, actually explains how to handle the EVEN NUMBERS - basically this is only a 5-digit keypad - nothing says that. You didn't explain that, but you did demonstrate it with that second number. And you did the rest very clearly as well. 😃😃 Seeing in Stereo now!

@@Hindsight101 A lot of people use old addresses or birthdates as number codes. I use an old address number that has an 8 and 9 in it. That's why 5 button key pads incorporate all 9 digits.

👍 It makes sense to make it easier, its just when I think about it too much it seems odd to me.
cool
The factory original code may be located inside the fuse panel near the hood release. The digits are in bold on a white sticker up behind some wires, use a flashlight. (At least it is there on my 2011 Ford Edge)

Great video. But I'm having a problem. I bought a 2015 expedition used and it does not matter which button I press it unlocks the car. I have tried reprogramming but nothing works. Every button pressed only once unlocks my car. Do you have any input on why this is or how to fix it? It's a big security issue.

Have you tried replacing the battery? I think it might be faulty. I would replace the fob, if its an all in one key and fob. Then that may get expensive.

Keypads that are installed by Ford (or dealer) run on the car's battery power. Key pads that have been installed separately, use an internal battery. There are instructions to replace them on You Tube

There are just 5 buttons. The first button is for 1 or 2. It lets you come up with number patterns that are easier to remember. But, functionally, there are just five button.s

What is the purpose of this? I’m from the UK and have seen these on American cars all my life. We don’t have these. Also, I’ve seen on some movies American people pressing buttons on the ceiling to call some company to start the car remotely haha… What is all this? 😂

You can use the keypad to lock and unlock your doors. These were on older cars not so much with newer cars
