Keyless entry

[559powerstroke]

I just recently got my 04 f250 and it didn't come with owners Manuel. I was wondering if there was any way to get the key pad code or maybe reset it?

Its the code on the body control module. I think they are against the back of the cab behind the rear seat. Thats the code that will always work, you cant change that one but you could add your own.

my truck is an 05 . not sure if it is the same spot but mine is on the back side of the fire wall behind the radio area. i had to find it from the bottom useing a bore scope. it was tricky but once i located it it was plain as day.

That's where mine was (unless you have a borescope or an inspection mirror, you need to me a yoga master), you need to move a wire bundle and some insulation out of the way but the factory code is written in white marker on the control box. After you have that I can't remember the process to set your own code but it's not difficult to find online, that's how I found out

Have fun cause it's not easy. Once you find it, make sure you write it down because you wont want to go through that again. It's easier the second time and third time. The insulation will be your biggest problem. You will find it easier by pulling the stereo so you can work from all sides. It's a clearly marked sticker.

And....it the battery has every gone dead thats no longer the code anyways...lol I did all that amd got the code but it wasnt rigbt so I had to buy a new keypad. Wasnt bad they are only 80 from ford.

It is up in the dash, i was thinking of the f150.

I have not tried yet, but i have been told in the past that you can go to Ford and they can look it up with your VIN. I do not have my code either and hoping they can do it for me.

I have finally found it after ripping most of the dash and saying more words then this forum will allow i got it. I found the easiest way is to take off the little hook plate and the ash tray if yours has it. I didn't notice it at first because there is a lot of insulation used long screw driver to move it around. Its on a black modular plug looking thing says bosh on it and its up side down to boot.. but i got it hopefully this helps ill try post pics if anyone has as much trouble as i did.

dont waste your time at the ford dealer they will charge you about 75 bucks for something you can find in about 5 minutes. under the steering will just to the right is your storage tray,open it up pull it down and find the white insulation and move it out of the way. you will have to look sort of up behind the radio and the module is mounted on the firewall. you will need a good flashlight maybe a mirror and some stretching exercises. it may be a white or black box but you can see the five numbers on it. may wanna move your seat all the way back. have a beer first and loosen up.
