Keyless Entry Keypad

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 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 RFA  module. The RFA  module 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 and when the courtesy lighting is illuminated or 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 RFA  module when the buttons are pressed. The RFA  module then supplies voltage to the appropriate door lock actuator(s) to lock or unlock the doors. The keyless entry keypad also causes the RFA  module 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.
