Change Keyless Code
I HAVE A 2002 FORD EXPEDITION I BOUGHT USED. THEREFORE I DO NOT HAVE AN OWNERS MANUAL. DOES ANYONE KNOW THE PROCEDURE TO CHANGE THE CODE ON MY KEYLESS ENTRY PAD? I MADE THE MISTAKE OF GIVING MY 12YEAR OLD THE CODE. HE HAS DECIDED TO SHARE THE CODE WITH HIS FRIENDS. NOT A GOOD IDEA!
NOW I AM CONCERNED WITH THE CODE BEING OUT THERE.
PLEASE HELP!

To add a second code:
1. Key in the original five-digit code.
2. Press the [1|2] button.
3. Key in the desired additional code (must be five digits).
4. You're done. You now have two codes to work the locking system. If you ever want to erase the additional code, follow steps 1 and 2, then key in the original code.

PaulC,
Thanks for the info.
I tried it and works wonderfully.
KevinCW,
You are right, they do forget fast but only what is convenient to them.
Adding a second code has worked really good.
Thanks,
Lucy

That's odd that you can't change the factory setting. I mean, what if you got a divorce and your ex-wife is a vindictive beach, and she decides to mess with your truck? Or worse yet, an insane ex-girlfriend? That's just silly!
It seems to me that you could swap out that little white box with a new one, or one out of a junkyard, and change the code that way. It might be a pain in the butt, but at least no crazy women would be able to get in your truck.
(I in no way resemble these remarks, but a friend of mine just broke up w/ his GF, and she is a total beach, and would definately mess with his truck or steal everything out of it, given the chance)

The original code is there to stay, barring any hardware swaps. However, you have the ability to key in a second code that can be changed/erased anytime. Just keep the first code a secret and if you have to give the code to another party, give out the easily-changable second one.
