Anti-Scan Feature

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

To provide added security, the keypad is disabled for 1 minute after 35 button presses without a valid entry code being entered. The keypad flashes during this 1 minute mode with all functionality disabled except for 7/8 and 9/0 still being allowed to lock the vehicle.

Anti-scan is turned off after 1 minute of keypad inactivity, the unlock button is pressed on an RKE  transmitter, or the ignition is switched to the RUN position.
