The instructions for programming in a keypad (which is just like adding a key fob) are on Pg. 85 of the Owners Guide. I'd type it out, but it's long. If you don't have an Owners Guide you can download one at http://www.motorcraftservice.com/vdirs/retail/default.asp?pageid=&gutsid= Click on Owners Guide on the left side of the screen.
A few tips:
1. Make sure you read the instructions carefully.
2. Make sure you press the unlock switch on the door before starting the procedure.
3. Make sure you start from the ignition "OFF" position and not the "LOCK" position and end in the "ON" position.
4. ALL of the transmitters need to be re-programmed in when adding the keypad, so have all of the key fobs with you as well.
5. If you don't get the "lock then unlock" indicating that you're in Program mode, re-read the instructions and try again, it will work.

How to reprogram your remote entry transmitters
You must have all remote keyless entry keypads and remote entry transmitters (maximum of four) available before beginning this procedure.
To program the keyless entry keypads remote entry transmitters yourself:
1. Ensure the vehicle is electronically unlocked.
2. Put the key in the ignition.
3. Turn the key from the 2 (LOCK) position to 3 (OFF).
4. Cycle eight times rapidly (within 10 seconds) between the 3 (OFF) position and 4 (ON). Note: The eighth turn must end in the 4 (ON) position.
5. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that the programming mode has been activated.
6. Within 20 seconds, program the keyless entry keypad by pressing the 7 • 8 and the 9 • 0 controls at the same time.
7. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that the keypad programming mode has been activated.
8. Within 20 seconds, program the remote entry transmitter by pressing any button on the transmitter. Note: If more than 20 seconds have passed you will need to start the procedure over again.
9. The doors will again lock, then unlock, to confirm that this remote entry transmitter has been programmed.
10. Repeat Step 8 to program each additional remote keypad or entry transmitter.
11. Turn the ignition to the 3 (OFF) position after you have finished programming all of the remote entry transmitters. Note: If more than 20 seconds have passed you will need to start the procedure over again.
