Can anyone help me. My truck has power door locks but is missing the remote keyless entry modual. Is it possible to add one to my truck, or do I need to install an after market system? The dealer said I am sol, but I though I would ask here for some differant opinions and help.
Thanks guys.

 

I have the same and was told by a dealer tech that if you turn the ign. key on and off 8 times and leave in the on position, the doors should lock--if you have the remote lock capability. Didn't work for me, That's my story and I'm sticking to it

 

The dealer fed you a line of crap, you can get a remote for around $325 installed, more if you want remote start.

 

When I bought my 04 it did not have a remote entry key fob. I bought a new one for $40 and followed the instructions that came with it. They do require to cycle the key several times.

 

i have a 07 lariat and it came with two remote fobs. i then put in a oem remot starter myself and that came with two remote fobs but only one worked. so i sent the one that didnt work back and ford sent me a new one with instructions on how to program it. cycle key on off 8 times leave in on position and doors will lock and unlock and then hit the unlock button and it should program the remote. I do this but it doesnt work. any other suggestions. someone said that i might have too many fobs programmed?? how do i delete one?

 

You can just go to any part store and purchase a remote door lock system for like 35.00.

For around 150.00 any stereo shop or BestBuy will install a decent secuirty system with remote door lock with lights and audible siren instead of a horn. Just an FYI.

 

Is that a factory system or an aftermarket for $325? If it is a factory system does anyone have the part numbers?

 

I just thought I would share. I bought my 03 F350 used and was told it did not come with keyless entry. I looked around about getting it installed but never could scrap up the time or cash to go have it done.

With all these key FOB threads I got to thinking. I grabbed my extra FOB my my 07 Mustang and went to see if I get get them to sync up. Sure enough it worked and I know have the factory style locks.Press once for drivers twice for all doors etc. If I press lock twice the horn even sounds. So it seems any newer ford FOB would work. It was news to me and I just saved a couple hundred bucks.

Thanks for the info guys.

 

I do have a set of fob's, but can't get them programed. Ford dealer couldn't even do it.

 

This is a Ford dealer installation which is different from a factory option.

 

Print pg. 89 and take it to the dealer that said you were out of luck! You will have to d/l the .pdf from this link since this site will not let me upload for ? reason. This is for the "gold package" (remote keyless entry/vehicle security system/ remote start).

Ive been looking for a auto start for wifes car and noticed a part that keeps comming up when I search, it BLOCKS the oem so you can add an aftermarket and use it for all the cars functions. Are u the first owner? if not is it possible the previous owner installed this and then took his equiptment with him? Food for thought?
