WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The keyless entry keypad feature operates independently of ignition status, vehicle speed, or transmission position. When a keypad button is pressed, the keypad buttons illuminate to provide better visibility. If buttons 7/8 and 9/0 are pressed simultaneously or 5 seconds have elapsed since the last button press, the illumination is turned off.

Vehicles equipped with a keyless entry keypad are programmed with a factory set 5-digit entry code. This code is provided to the customer on a wallet card in the Owner's Literature package. In addition, this code is available through the use of a scan tool, and is printed on the BCM label. When entering codes, each digit must be entered within 5 seconds of the previous button press.
