I have an 2004 F350 and looking to find where the KYE Module sits in this truck so I can check to see if I have the connections to support it. So I need pics or info from 1999 to 2004.
The VSM (Vehicle Security Module) controls the power door locks, door lock switches, the wired keypad (if you have it), remote keyless entry, wireless keypad and the auto lamps (if you have that).
It is tucked up on the firewall, behind the radio.
I don't know if there are different VSM's for trucks with different functions, or if there is just one generic VSM module and different functions are turned on or off in programming.
There don't appear to be any special connectors to the VSM for keyless entry. Just connections to the door lock/unlock switches, and the door lock actuators. There has to be a connection to the wired keypad, but my service manual doesn't show it.
Below is a diagram that sort of shows where the VSM is.
It's basically up on the forward firewall behind the radio. You can see it by laying on the floor and looking up behind the dash behind the radio. The only real way to actually access will be to remove the radio and probably the black dash face.
surge08...Are you trying to add the keyless entry?? I was wanting to do that to my 03 but the local dealer said that it was not possible...let me know how it works for you
If you are looking to add the keypad on the side of the door you can get one of these. This is what I have and they work on the same frequency as the fobs. No wiring at all, they just stick on the side of the truck with two sided tape. Mine works great and it was easy to install. It's also a genuine Ford part.
