Keyless Entry Keypad

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lincoln MKX and 2010 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The keyless entry keypad is hardwired to the SJB  . The SJB  interprets the inputs from the keyless entry keypad and then controls the associated operation. The keyless entry keypad is illuminated for 5 seconds when any button is pressed. The SJB  requests the illuminated entry feature to turn the interior lamps on when a valid entry code is received. If a lock all doors code is entered, the illuminated entry feature turns off.

NOTE: The keyless entry keypad does not lock the doors if the driver door is ajar.

The keyless entry keypad supplies a signal to the SJB  when the buttons are pressed. The SJB  then supplies voltage to the appropriate door lock actuator(s) to lock or unlock the doors. On vehicles with memory, the keyless entry keypad also causes the SJB  to send an MS-CAN  message to the DSM  to activate all memory features to the positions associated with the personal entry code entered on the keypad.
