I just bought a 98 Explorer and I would like to reprogram the keypad code. The owners manual says that the factory preset code is on a tag on the computer module. I looked at the sticker on the PCM and I do not see any 5 digit code on this sticker. Is the sticker on the PCM the correct place to find the factory preset code? Any help would be appreaciated.

 

I believe the code you are looking for will be on the keypad computer not the PCM. I have no idea where it is.

 

The keyless entry module is located above th e left hand rear wheel, underneath the lefthand rear quarter trim panel. With a flashlight and a mirror you should just be able to see it with the jack cover removed.
