But none of the posts say how to use it to program your own code.  Anybody know how to do that? New purchase for my boy.....no owners manual and no code yet.....

Press the 1/2 button within five seconds to activate the programming mode. Holding the 1/2 button for more than two seconds after activation will erase the stored customer code. The door locks will lock, then unlock, confirming the code is erased. The existing code will not need to be erased to program new a code. Within five seconds, enter the new five-digit keyless entry keypad code. The door locks will lock and unlock to confirm the new code is programmed. You can also download an Owners/Operating manual from..  https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/owners_manuals/default.asp _____________________________ 05 F250 C/C FX4 6.0 1969 Firebird Trans Am 2003 Hayabusa GSXR1300 (in reply to pkd7423) Post #: 3

I have personal code in. I input the factory code Within 5 seconds I press and hold the 1/2 button for 2 seconds...... BUT it doesn't erase the code....it doesn't pop up and down the locks or anything...... the personal code stays there and works just like the factory code. What am I missing to erase the personal code?   does the key need to be in and the ignition on?  all steps mentioned above were done with no key in at all.

Erasing your Personal Code or A Prior Owner's Code: 1)  Enter factory code 2)  Press 1/2 key within five seconds of step 1 3)  Press the 7/8 and 9/0 keys at the same time within 5 seconds of step 2 The system will now only respond to the factory code Thanks, _____________________________ PK Davis (in reply to pkd7423) Post #: 7

You will have to look thru both the right side and left side cutouts.  Again the sticker is hard to see, as it is on the front of the black box.  You will need a flashlight.....and if you can read backwards a mirror might help..... hope this helps you! _____________________________ PK Davis (in reply to jwest72) Post #: 9
