Keyless entry

I bought a used '06 f250 and the dealer didnt have the factory entry code. How can i retreive this code without going to a Ford dealer and paying over $50 just so they can tell me the code?

Maybe the dealer could call the previous owner?

Do a search for Keyless Entry. There are a number of descriptions of how to read the code sticker off of the Vehicle Security Module.

In a nutshell, the code is up on the forward firewall, behind the radio. Some people have had to remove the radio. Some people have had luck laying on their back looking up from the bottom, some using a mirror. It is a small white or black module, usually hidden underneath some insulation. It usually has a sticker on it with a lot of numbers, but 5 larger ones. Those 5 larger ones are your master code.

Some vehicles don't have a sticker.
