1) Did your truck come factory-equipped with the remote key fobs? If not, then the keypad won't work, as it needs the remote system to work off of.
2) If it did come with the key fobs, try turning the ignition key 10 times instead of 8.

I just put one on mine last week. It reset the first time, locks locked/unlocked, but I didn't get the fob pushed, so I redid it and nothing, 8 times 10 times, nothing. I did it 8 times one last shot, no locks working, but went ahead and hit the keypad with the numbers and it locked unlocked the doors, then I just followed with both fobs. Working great.

Are the keyless pads any smaller yet, or are they still these big thick things that stick on to the side of the truck?
I'd like to get a set if they are lower profile than they were in '03

Mine looks like a wart growing on my door. I think the '05 keypad is embedded again.
It is definetly used at my house. Always getting something out of the truck but leaving keys in the house. Especially happens when working in the garage or kids leaving back packs and such in the truck.

Nastyss, Take it back to Ford and have them give it a try. If they can't get it to work get another one. I bought mine off ebay, after another FTE member wrote about his, and installed it no problem. Don't give up, I use mine all the time but I wish they had been a factory hardwired option like on the Excursions.
