I believe if you remove the panel below the steering column, use a flash light then look up to the left of the column and you should see a white box with 5 numbers on it. I could be wrong where it is located.

There are a few threads on this topic if you do a search for "keyless entry code"..

I found mine the other night by doing that. If you stick your head down by the pedals and look up in the direction of the drivers side rear view mirror, you will see a white box with 5 big, very obvious numbers. This is your factory code.

The location varies with the year and the vehicle, but a little searching on here should turn up the location for you. If all else fails you can take it to the dealer and they'll scan it for you, but they charge an hour labor for it.

Found it thanks! Is the code on my Expy the same factory code for all Expy's, or is it exclusive to my Expy?

It's in your owner's manual. Look in your glovebox.

Sorta kinda. Since it's only 5 digits there are only 100,000 possible combinations (00000-99999). So if the numbers are sequential, every 1 in 100K vehicles made with a keypad, share the same code.

I am still searching for mine but I didn't try this location yet (mine is a 2000 XLT). I can say it is not in the owners manual, I looked
