So having a hell of a time with keyless entry on a 97 F350, trying to add door keypad but it won't pair up. So key in run position and jump the terminals to put in programming mode and hit lock button on both factory remotes they work and go to hit the 7/8 and 9/0 on the keyless entry key pad and the keypad won't pair up, also tried master code, any ideas? Spent over 2 hours messing with this, should have been a 5 min job. Any one added one of these to an obs?

Thanks for all the posts on multiple threads but I’m not seeing a solution for my specific issue. I’m trying to lock my fob in 2017 Explorer. The keypad 7.8/.9.0 doesn’t lock the doors when I leave the fob inside.

What am am I doing wrong?

 

This section is for 87-97 Ford pickup trucks, you'll probably have better luck posting your question here instead. 2011 and newer Explorer
