Lights using keyless entry

First let me say that i've been lurking for about 2 weeks and have already gotten a wealth of knowledge on the forum. I've always been a Chevy man, and just recently bought a 06 F250 Lariat PSD 6.0l, and absolutely love it. It has so much more to offer as a heavy duty over the Duramax 2500, so that's my confession to crossing over.

Now i'd like to ask a question regarding the keyless entry. My brother-in-law owns a 2003 F250 V10, and when he unlocks his doors, the cab, mirror, brake lights, and front light up. I use my fob, and the interior lights are the only thing that blinks. Is there a setup/programming that i need to do in order to get my truck to do the same?

Thanks for the support of this board.

Well, firstly, Congratulations not only on your new SD, but crossing over to the world of Ford!!! I am sure you will love your new truck.

I own a 2003 F250, and when I press the key fob, the doors unlock, and the cab, mirrors, brakes and front lights DO light up. I can't speak for the 2006's, but I am sure someone else here can.

Good luck!!

'06 F350 Lariat PSD 6.0l here, and only the interior light and bed lights come on; none of the other lights that PHWLEE spoke of. Would love to hear of mod to turn them all on...

I honestly can't remember stock setup, I'll have to try it. I know with an aftermarket alarm/ starter all the lights flash. I'll check on stock.

On my '04 the marker lights, cab lights, etc. only light up when I lock it, not when I unlock it with FOB. The only changes I know of that can be made to the programming of the stock RKE are the ones listed in the manual.
