Keyless entry question
I have a 06 f250 fx4 no keyless entry. My question is if I buy a Ford factory one is it plug and go or will I be splicing wires? I know a lot of the wires for accessorys are already there just not hooked to anything. The cab lights I just done were apiece of cake.

Are you sure you don't have RKE already? check it here:

I would imagine it just plugs in. You may even pick one up from the junkyard too.

On an '06, if you don't have the numbered keypad on the door, you don't have keyless entry. It was not standard on an XLT, but was often purchased as an option. The option was called Advanced Security Group.
I have never heard of anyone successfully adding factory keyless entry. But there are excellent aftermarket systems available, with alarms if you want.

$230.00 for factory unit. And I thought if it just was a plug and play unit the install can get any easier. I just didn't know if the factory plugs were hidden somewhere under the dash, or if someone knows where the factory unit is at in the truck.

Not sure if it will work for sure but i think it will. I have a factory remote stater with keyless entry for sale that came out of my 07 f-350.
It's in the for sale section if your interested.https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ess-entry.html
The wiring isnt that bad but if you wanted I'm sure a local A/V shop could do it for an hour or two labour.
